Your chance to see the future of hooklift demount container movement.
On 29 November, Ladybird Cranes will host a ‘hands-on’ demonstration day that will cover two complimentary aspects of waste, recycling and demolition: the need to move and transfer hooklift demount containers around a site; and the advantages to axle loading and general transport efficiency resulting from crushing brick, stone and concrete on-site before loading the material into skips and containers for onward dispatch.
The demonstration day will feature a range of Red Rhino compact crushers in action processing demolition waste and at least one example of the innovative ‘Gapo‘ remote controlled container mover/spotter.
The Gapo has the ability to cut down on wasted truck ‘tacho-time’ by speeding up the swapping of empty and full containers either at a CA site, or construction site. the Gapo has the added advantages of not requiring a banksman, not requiring an HGV driver or even requiring a hooklift truck to be present when a full container needs moving.
The event takes place from 10.30 am to 2.30 pm on Thursday 29th November, at the HQ of Ladybird Cranes, Ladybird Barn, Old Burcot Lane, Bromsgrove, B601PH.
The event is open to all professionals and entry is free. Refreshments will be provided but CIWM Business Club co-ordinator Malcolm Bates has requested that if possible, interested parties log on to the CIWM website and register to help the catering department assess numbers.
