Trailers meet new regs
The Transland Group has bought eight new bespoke trailers for its services to and from Ireland.
The Irish Ministry of Transport recently introduced new regulations on the height limit of 4.65m for trailers entering the country, as opposed to the standard 4.8m throughout the UK. This has limited many logistics firms to single-deck trailers.
Palletways network member, Transland, have become the first company to react to the new regulations, with the introduction of eight made-to-measure double-deck trailers.
The new trailers are fitted with cargo nets, strapping for both lower and upper decks, wrap-around curtains and a mesh floor on the upper deck to provide better visibility and increased payload.
