The latest Issue of Truck and Track is out now!
Logistics companies are accorded little leeway or understanding by their customers when
bad weather strikes. So, in this Issue no.22 of Truck and Track, we are indebted to Ray
Engley, Head of Technical Services at the Road Haulage Association, for his expert
seasonal tips on wintertime driving and maintenance (page 26). As Britain’s leading trade
magazine for the road-, railfreight and multimodal sectors, we are committed to providing
the industry with such advice as that – as well as new ideas – to help operators along the
way.
Accordingly we draw your attention to Canute’s Canfund initiative described on pages
36-37. Major logistics groups like Canute will engage subcontract hauliers on an ad hoc
basis to manage seasonal peaks (such as pre-Christmas in retail) and periods of
extraordinary activity from high-volume accounts. To assist the vital cashflow of small
subcontract fleets – for whom invoice settlement in 90, 120 or more days seems regrettably
to be the industry norm, from February 1st Canute’s trusted network of some 650 hauliers
will be able draw down invoiced funds to collect payment as soon as it is required, even
the same day.

product apart from other automatic lubrication systems on the market. Not only does it
make refilling a very easy job, it also guarantees the right grease quality and
specification for the equipment, less repair and maintenance, and longer life for critical
components.
