Freight delivery company Countrywide Freight Group has invested in a new fleet of 15 warehouse forklift trucks from TCM’s Northern Ireland dealership W Hall.

 

The forklifts are a mixed fleet of 2.5, 3.5 and 5.0 vehicles designed for a wide range of lifting duties, suitable for Countrywide’s needs.

“We need to load and offload around 400 pallets daily, so we need equipment that is agile and economical. But we also have to cater for bigger loads, such as machinery or heavy components and some that need more specialised handling using different forklift attachments,” said Countrywide operations manager Jordan Armstrong.
