Current vehicle fleet names

Current refuse and recycling vehicle fleet

The Name That Wagon competition was first ran in 2020 when the new fleet of lorries and sweepers arrived in the borough.

Over 150 names were suggested and the final 24 winning names were selected by a judging panel. They joined Florence, which was the first lorry to be named as a dedication to the NHS heroes and key workers on the front line supporting the public during the coronavirus pandemic. 

The competition was ran again in 2024 to name two new bin lorries which were added to the fleet.
