Pickerings invests in six new lorries with crane off loading

Pickerings, the national supplier of quality portable and modular buildings, has continued to invest in its fleet of delivery vehicles with the addition of six new Volvo lorries. These will be based at Pickerings hire centres located around the country.

Each new vehicle is fitted with a Fassi F660RA lorry mounted crane to enable portable cabins and building modules to be more easily delivered and off-loaded on customer’s sites.

The Fassi crane has 6 hydraulic extensions that will lift a mighty 3100kg at maximum reach of 16.1 metres. It also comes with a 360° continuous slewing rotation with capacity to safely offload over the cab and help overcome site restrictions.

Kevin Barber, Pickerings Fleet Director, said, “These Volvo lorries are great trucks and when fitted with a Fassi crane they are a fantastic piece of equipment with many safety features. Pickerings is really showing commitment to continued investment into our delivery fleet with market leading equipment to provide our customers with an exceptional logistics service they have come to expect from us.”

Pickerings operates a fleet of over 100 HGV and commercial vehicles from 12 depots strategically placed nationwide providing building solutions for customers to hire, buy or lease purchase.
