We are continuously striving to improve the service and value for money we are able to offer our customers and this involves investing in new equipment to make us more efficient in the work we do. As well as improving the finished product this equipment invariably saves time (and therefore clients money), as well as our body – allowing us to do more in a day!
This recent investment comprises of 2 main pieces – a new forwarding trailer and a post knocker to go onto the alpine tractor.
Post Knocker
The post knocker has already proved it’s worth, going out on a job the very same day we took delivery. A small package it still packs quite a punch with a 180kg weight putting in posts far quicker than we could manage by hand.
Compact post knocker
Its small dimensions mean that we can get the machine into small paddocks and onto sites that are not suited to larger farm based equipment. On this particular job we had to go through a gap in the hedge of the customers garden, which you can just see to the front left of the tractor.

Forwarding Trailer
We have also upgraded out forwarding trailer to make the most of the power the tractor has. The new trailer is able to carry up to 3 tons but with the flotation tyres still leaves minimal impact of its passing.

The whole set up is still easy to transport as we had it custom made, it cleverly shrinks to fit onto our flatbed and can be towed to site by us.
