Liebherr-Australia’s Earthmoving division has recently continued its success with Cleanaway, Australia’s leading waste management, recycling and industrial services company, operating a national network of unique collection, processing, treatment and landfill assets from over 200 locations across Australia, after being awarded a substantial amount of new Liebherr waste and recycling mobile equipment for its upcoming Brisbane City Council Contract which is due to commence in mid-2018. Our new machines will be used at four of the Resource Recovery Centres in and around Brisbane.
Other recent orders include the replacement of some existing older wheel loaders from within the fleet with new Liebherr units which will be delivered around the country.
This totals 15 new machine orders, which are expected to commence delivery in early 2018 and be completed by mid-2018.
Other recent successes with Cleanaway have been deliveries of new equipment as a result of renewed contracts at the Noosa Shire Council landfill, for three new Liebherr specialist machines, along with another three new units delivered to the Cleanaway MRF facility in South Guildford, near Perth. A small Liebherr Compact wheel loader was also just delivered to Cleanaway, assisting at the Wheatstone Natural Gas Project in WA.
Upon delivery of the current ordered units, the Cleanaway fleet will total 24 Liebherr specialist machines around the country.
