Customer Review
“Hi Keith, we’ve only had our Muck Truck for a week and are already finding 101 uses! Our 34-year-old niece collected ½ a ton of sheep feed, equivalent to 25 bags of 20 kg each. Typically, it is a struggle with three bags and a wheelbarrow through the muddy footpath and narrow gate. However, now she manages everything in only two trips, driving it from the front of the house to the storage shed (about 400 yards). Cleaning the chicken sheds in winter by scrapping the dropping boards straight into the skip is now easy. We can drive through tough terrain with a full load without effort. Another use for the machine was repairing our footpaths by filling the uneven areas with broken roof tiles and rubble. With so many jobs to be done around the farm, we find the versatility of this barrow truly invaluable.
Thanks for your excellent service from start to finish.Tom & Lyn Roberts, (Chicken Farmers) from Dymchurch, Kent”.
