Speedy claims to be the first tool and equipment hire business to make use of the Modec electric vehicles.


Speedy expects to order more for use in the capital and elsewhere – if they prove a success

Ian Leonard, Speedy’s head of transport, said: “It makes good commercial sense for companies to consider the impact they make on the environment.  The introduction of measures such as the congestion charge provide incentives for businesses such as ourselves to look at alternatives to traditional means of making deliveries.”

He added that on major projects like the Olympics, customers are increasingly looking at ways to minimise the adverse environmental impact in all areas of their operations.  “We believe that initiatives such as these will give us a competitive advantage,” Leonard concluded.
