Dennis Eagle Inc., with headquarters in Summerville, South Carolina, has announced it is entering the

U.S. refuse truck market. Dennis Eagle, which is part of the U.K.-based Terberg RosRoca Group, is a manufacturer of refuse truck chassis and bodies.

The company will manufacture its ProView chassis out of its Summerville production facility. According to the company, its trucks offer operators greater safety and efficiency enhancements.

Their trucks feature a low-entry, walk-through cab that can comfortably seat a driver and “three-crew,” the company says. Additionally, the cab is designed with enhanced visibility levels to provide the driver with as much direct vision as possible to better see other drivers and obstacles around the vehicle.

“Technology and design have made such an impact in waste management that there is now a gap in the market for a specialist truck, designed and built for vocational use, and we are filling that gap,” Dennis Eagle Inc. President Ian Handley says. “This is an American truck. It is specifically designed for American operators. It’s made in America, and it uses American components. We have been trialing the vehicle for four years and are confident it will be a huge success.

“It’s big on safety and big on efficiency, and we expect it to make a major impact on the vocational market in general and waste management operations in particular here in North America. We’ve set up a network of established dealers to cover the whole of North America.”

According to the company, its first all-electric refuse truck is already in production and units were delivered to the first U.K. customers this past fall.
