A LOGISTICS business based in Fradley has invested in 30 new electric pump trucks to support its drivers.
Palletways Birmingham said the technology would help staff with increasing numbers of heavier tail-life and kerb-side deliveries.
James Raybould, joint depot manager, said:
“Deliveries like this can often be physically demanding, so pump trucks are key pieces of equipment for our drivers to help them in their day-to-day activities.
“They enable more efficient and accessible deliveries to be made especially in residential or restricted areas.
“Pump trucks can help to reduce driver fatigue and physical strain with a range of built-in safety features which all staff will be trained on how to optimise effectively.”
