Lifting Co-op’s green efficiency
February 1st 2008

A mobile dock lift from Transdek UK is helping the United Co-op’s Talke RDC in Staffordshire to recycle more of the waste packing materials generated by its 580 stores.

As part of the company’s commitment to increase recycling, large quantities of waste cardboard are delivered to the Talke RDC in roll cages every day. Vehicles had previously been unloaded in the yard by taillift, but this method was slow and tied up drivers for too long.

Transdek was commissioned to install a dock lift that could handle the cages more quickly and could also be moved to allow access between the warehouse and the yard. This requirement was met by fitting retractable wheels to each corner of the lift chassis. The equipment has a safe working load of 4500kg and can carry 12 rollcages on its 3500mm x 2450mm platform.
