Removal firm brings in container-based system

It has been reported that a well known removal company has brought in a container-based system for domestic removals.

The system is widely used in Europe and has been introduced into the UK using a trio of DAF CF85 drawbar outfits, according to Easier.

A removal company in the south-west, has bought 12 CT boxes and will be using them out of its head office in Truro, as well as depots in Exeter and Bristol.

The CT box system is said to use an ISO container that is 25-feet long compared to the standard 20, while at 9.5 feet the box is also 18 inches higher - combining to create a volume of 1,625 cubic feet.

This volume is 42 per cent more than a standard container and also significantly bigger than conventional removal containers.

Mark Lane, the company's managing director, says that the implementation of an automatic gearbox will help to cut driver tiredness and also reduce clutch wear and tear.
