Sustainable waste, recycling and event management services provider Lili Waste has equipped its 5-star DVS rated trade waste refuse vehicle fleet with Fleetclear’s DVR camera systems and switched to the Fleetclear Connect platform to monitor and track vehicle safety technology.

John Hopkins, Fleet & Depot Manager at Lili Waste, said: ‘Most of our drivers are lone workers so there are important safety issues to consider, and we wanted peace of mind.’

The entire Lili Waste fleet is now installed with the Fleetclear DVR camera system, which not only captures and records footage from 360 degrees around the vehicle but also provides live tracking.

John continued: ‘We were wide open to complaints and false insurance claims about damage apparently caused by our vehicles. Some of our drivers were hesitant about us adopting the camera technology, but they soon changed their minds.’

He added: ‘Once the cameras were fitted, we were able to close down nine out of 10 of the complaints immediately and exonerate our drivers from any blame.’

Emma Poore, sales manager south-east, Fleetclear, said: ‘We are delighted to have been partners with Lili Waste since 2017. The protection of crews, the public and their fleet has always been a top priority, and they have embraced our technology to maintain the highest standards of safety.’
