Hills Tankers Take Delivery of Volvo’s 75,000th Truck

Earlier this year, Gary Bone, Vice President Volvo Group Australia, handed over the keys to the 75,000th Volvo to be built locally and delivered in Australia to Hills Tankers. Hill’s Tankers have been buying Volvos since the business started in Maitland in the 1960s, and now has more than 40 Volvos in the fleet.

At the handover, Hills Tankers owner Andrew Hill said ““We’re keen advocates of quality and safety – we only hire the most experienced and skilled professionals right across our business – and we expect the tools we give our people to be the best available. Volvo’s trucks are the safest and most reliable in the market.”

“Volvo’s focus on the environmental aspects of heavy transport have always made them a leader in this area. We’re in the business of transporting fuels and vegetable oils, so we’ve got a clear interest in the development of biodiesel and sustainable aviation fuels. That’s where the future lies, and we’ll be carrying them in tankers pulled by Volvos.”
