Adaptalift becomes new entrant in truck rental market

Firm specialising in forklift hire adds new subsidiary to portfolio

 

Forklift sales and hire company Adaptalift Group has launched a subsidiary truck rental business.

Adaptalift Truck Rentals (ATR) offers prime mover, truck and equipment to the freight, transport and logistics industries nationwide, the firm says.

“We offer our customers a range of short- and long-term truck rental solutions. Rentals range from one day to five years to suit customer requirements,” ATR general manager Fraser Moore says.

“We’re able to offer our customers a solution that helps them to maximise fleet utilisation, maintain business continuity if a vehicle goes down, or grow their business to take advantage of new opportunities. 

“Rental provides flexible access to vehicles without having to lock into long term asset ownership or tie up asset funding lines.”

Moore spruiks the firm’s late-model, technologically advanced fleets of Mercedes-Benz prime movers and trucks available for rent, including line haul, local delivery and hydraulic options.

“We’re very fortunate to have access to some of the safest, most fuel efficient trucks in the market. 

“Mercedes-Benz Trucks have a great product and customers can take advantage of all the safety, comfort and performance benefits that these vehicles have to offer. 

“Our trucks are fitted with automatic transmissions, active brake assist, and proximity control to name a few features.” 

On the support side Moore points to 24×7 roadside assistance and telematics inclusions for all vehicles.

He also notes the firm’s view to expansion into other asset classes. 

“A good example of this is our recent investment in some Smart-Dig Hydro Excavators in our fleet. 

“Feedback so far is that these units are very easy to operate providing increased productivity and the ability to control project costs.”
