Machinery Transport
At Paul A Watler Machinery Movements we have more than 45 years' experience in road haulage, and we have a wide range of vehicles for transporting all types of machines anywhere in the UK and Europe.
All our drivers are fully trained and licensed to drive the vehicles and cranes, and they are also trained to high standards in the loading, sheeting and transporting of all types of machines.
Our fleet of vehicles includes the following:
- A small four-wheel Daf 18 ton with a rear mount crane that can be fitted with a 10 ton draw-bar trailer, giving us the flexibility to move machines from places with restricted access. This small lorry gives good fuel consumption to allow us to be very competitive in the small end of the market, allowing us also to be more competitive with Cross Channel movements as the shipping charges are a lot lower than for a standard lorry
- A six-wheel Daf XF105, 26 ton ridged with a rear mount crane which is capable of lifting 10 tons plus and can be coupled with our new 25 ton Chieftain low loader drawbar trailer, a 44 ton combination. This vehicle gives us the capability to carry machines within the one to 16 ton range, and with the Chieftain trailer it allows us to have a total carrying capacity of up to 22 tons and to carry large volumes of machines
- An eight-wheel ERF EC11, 32 ton ridged with a rear mount Fassi which is capable of lifting 18 tons and with a floor space of 24ft
- A Scania 124G T-Cab Tractor unit with a Nooteboom low loader trailer fitted with a rear mount crane. This vehicle was specially designed for transporting tall, long or heavy machines
- Daf XF106 Tractor 60 ton which combines with an Andover low loader trailer fitted with a rear mount 110 ton metre Fassi crane
- Scania R420 Tractor 65 ton which combines with a 30ft flat SDC trailer fitted with a rear mount 56 ton metre 'T' Boom Copma crane, especially designed for working in areas with low headroom
- A specially designed low loader covered forklift trailer with 3metre plus internal height for transporting printing and other weather-sensitive machinery. Loading can take place from the side and top, as well as from the rear with its flip toe ramp for loading forkilfts
Our specialist fleet of lorries and forklift trucks enables us to move all types of machines in a professional manner at competitive prices.
