Trilo transforms the task of cut and collect for BCP Council
ollowing BCP Council ’ s
F declaration of a climate and ecology emergency in 2019 , the decision was made to review the management of some green spaces across the Bournemouth , Christchurch and Poole areas . With a subsequent reduction in the cutting of some verges and open land , a Trilo S20 with its large
20m3 hopper capacity was brought in to increase productivity as the cut and collect operation expanded – taking not just large quantities of meadow grass in its stride but also assisting with leaf clearance during the winter months .
The versatile Trilo S20 was purchased in May 2022 by Simon Woodall , Team Operations Manager for BCP
Council and spearhead of a 30-strong team responsible for looking after all aspects of parks and housing grounds maintenance and landscape construction . “ Our ecology programme included creating more grass meadows by leaving areas uncut to improve carbon sequestration and increase our biodiversity to support pollinators .
