Shelvoke Dempster Front Loader Above all it was for their standards of engineering excellence that S&D contributed to advances in the design and operation of refuse collection vehicles. The extraordinary success of the Freighter, which remained in production for 30 years, established a company that although not producing the cheapest vehicles, was regarded by many as "the best." I also recommend you see the BOOKS section for titles pertaining to SD and British refuse collection vehicles.
