Sortera strikes £1m JCB fleet deal

Sortera has invested more than £1 million in new JCB mobile plant machinery for its construction fleet. 

The initial investment includes a diverse range of new vehicles, including multiple waste handlers and excavators such as models JS20MH, 86C-2 and 220X.

These have been strategically deployed across five of Sortera’s operational depots in Wembley, Harlow, Uxbridge, Tottenham, and Rochford to enhance on-site efficiency, reduce downtime, and strengthen material handling capabilities across a wide range of projects.

James Richardson, managing director at Greenshields JCB, said: “Sortera approached Greenshields JCB with a clear intention to achieve operational excellence across all of its locations, to a defined and optimised cost model.

“This involved jointly assessing the detailed requirements at each site and benchmarking best practices within their existing operations to identify suitable machinery, finance and aftersales solutions.

“We look forward to supporting Sortera in achieving their growth objectives and are grateful for the selection of GJCB as their supplier of choice and the investments that they are making in the JCB product.”

Ian Wilkinson, operations director at Sortera, added: “This investment is about strengthening our core operations with equipment we know we can trust.

“JCB’s machinery is a proven asset in our sector, and this upgrade ensures we’re ready to meet growing client demand and continue to lead in construction waste solutions.”

Looking ahead, Sortera has confirmed plans to continue expanding its fleet with more investment in a wider variety of JCB machinery throughout the year.
