"When I started Central Quarry Materials back in 2006, Sloanebuilt Trailers was my preferred supplier for all truck bodywork and trailer requirements. At the time, the relationship with Sloanebuilt was particularly important to us because of its expertise and involvement with PBS-compliant trailers. It went without saying that, as we created Select Quarry Materials, we would be working with Sloanebuilt. We have continued a very long solid long-term business relationship for over ten years, starting with truck and three-axle dogs, then to four-axle dogs, and it has continued as we became one of the first operators of five-axle dog trailers and 10x4 rigid tippers in Sydney. Sloanebuilt continues to work closely with our workshop, and as part of its customer support program it maintains a consignment stock of OEM parts located at the SQM workshop to cater for regular service requirements. The inventory is monitored and replenished by Sloanebuilt direct, to ensure that stocks are on hand, such as brake shoes, brake boosters, slack adjusters, etc., complimenting the tyre stock of new tyres already mounted on alloy rims and other parts such as filters and lights. In quieter times, our service team is also able to work with Sloanebuilt to undertake refurbishment programmes for older trailers, making sure that all our equipment incorporates the latest in technology upgrades. The overhaul gives even an older trailer the ability to remain in service behind a new truck and bin with good reliability as well as maintaining the very high level of fleet presentation we require."
