If ever you thought the humble site dumper was primarily a European machine mainly used in the UK, France and Spain think on.
Since the launch of our on-line parts shop we have had parts enquiries from all around the world trying to source parts for their Thwaites, Benford, Terex, Terex/JCB or Barford dumpers. Also if you think these enquiries are for old hand start dumpers with Lister Petter air-cooled engines you would be sadly mistaken as most enquiries are for modern dumpers, most of them under seven years old. The majority of them are for Thwaites dumpers which I can only put down to the lack of interest shown by Terex in exporting dumpers whereas Thwaites have a dedicated Export Department.
Dumper parts sales for Thwaites, Terex, Terex/JCB, Benford and Barford dumpers in 2022 from outside of Europe have come from.

Dave in the Parts Dept, always willing to go the extra mile for the customer, volunteered to deliver a large consignment of parts to the Seychelles. Sadly for him, when we closed the cardboard box on the pallet, he got claustrophobic and we had to let him out.
From humble beginnings over 30 years ago in a small unit in Cullompton, Devon who would have thought we would become the largest supplier of Thwaites, Terex, Terex/JCB and Barford in the UK exporting parts to all corners of the world.
