If you run or manage commercial vehicles, you’ve probably dealt with the annual CVR test. But there’s another document worth paying close attention to - the CVRT Risk Rating Report. It doesn’t just tell you whether your vehicles passed or failed; it gives an overview of how well you’re staying on top of maintenance and safety.

At Argent Equipment, we know that your vehicles are the backbone of your business, and ensuring they’re safe, compliant, and secure is a top priority. It’s one of the reasons why many companies across Dublin choose to trust us with their commercial vehicle testing needs.
