Search invests in Land Rover and Iveco hydraulic platforms

As part of a planned £100,000 investment, Leeds plant hire firm William G Search has unveiled four vehicle-mounted hydraulic platforms.
Two go-anywhere 14.5m platforms are mounted on Land Rover 130s and the other two 11m machines are mounted on 3.5t Iveco Daily vans.
In choosing the 4WD Land Rovers, group hire operations manager Andrew Collings plans to add rail contractors, TV/film crews, tree surgeons and others requiring vehicles for potential off-road use to its customer base.
"The Land Rovers feature unusually big platforms for this size and type of vehicle and this enables us to meet the hire needs of a new range of customers," he said.
The two new Iveco vans enlarge the fleet in an area where there is strong demand, Collings said, and take the fleet to 30 units ranging from 9m to 30m.
