Overview

S W Wrefords ‘over-haul’ their Truck Mounted FLT Fleet

In late 2018 Andy Wreford (Director) saw the exceptional quality and reliability of Terberg KingLifter Truck-Mounted Forklift machines during a free of charge, one week demo from Bennie Equipment. He also appreciated the synergies between the historic family-run S W Wreford, Terberg and Bennie Equipment businesses. Within days of the demo finishing, Andy had placed his first order for two brand new Terberg KingLifter TKL-MC machines in their corporate colour scheme to match their lorry fleet, and including some useful optional features to help his drivers work safely and efficiently.

Scope of Work

Like Terberg (first established in 1869) and the Bennie Group (established in 1939), S W Wrefords is a very traditional and long-established family run business. Starting out in 1904 with just a single horse and cart, S W Wrefords Transport is now officially the oldest independent family run transport company in the UK, with an impressive fleet of almost 100 vehicles.

Over those 115 successful years, the Wreford family and their team have built a breadth of experience and knowledge – not only in their industry of transport, logistics, warehousing and distribution, but also in the equipment and vehicles they require to operate their business on a daily basis.

At Wrefords there is an appreciation of the high build quality, high reliability and robust vehicles – after all, if their vehicles and equipment fail, they wouldn’t be able to offer the excellent level of service that their brand has become synonymous with.

Andy Wrefords commented that the drivers will ‘love’ Terberg KingLifter patented Scissor Reach Mast and would benefit from it greatly compared to the masts they have on the older machines, and that the 4-way steering option is easy to use and an absolute necessity at some delivery sites.
