Mr Plant Hire expands fleet
UK based rental company Mr Plant Hire has taken delivery of its first 33ft Genie Z-33/18 boom lifts to be delivered in the UK
The new models unveiled at Apex last June, are part of an order which also includes the new 62ft Z-62/40 and was placed during a visit last September to the Genie manufacturing facility in Perugia, Italy, where the two new models are built. Delivery of the larger model are due shortly.

Mr Plant Hire’s director Tony Crawford said: “The Access Alliance group were invited to the Perugia facility for our third quarter meeting last year and were very impressed with the setup. We were also given the opportunity to drive the Z-33/18 and new GTH-2506 six metre telehandler at the company’s new test, demo and training area a short drive from the plant”.
“The Z-33/18 fits in to our fleet perfectly with the ever increasing customer demand for a compact cherry picker with a great working envelope and battery cycle times. The machines come with non-marking tyres as standard, making this a great choice for internal maintenance projects almost anywhere. We also placed an order for the new Z-62/40 which has been completely re-vamped from the old Z-60/34 and we expect to start taking delivery of these units shortly.

Genie territory sales manager Joanna Tomkins added: “We had a great trip out to Perugia with the Access Alliance group and everyone seemed impressed with the new models and we received multiple orders for various equipment including orders for the new GTH-2506 telehandler. We have been dealing with Mr Plant Hire for 15 years now and it’s great to be able to contribute towards their continued success.”
The company has also recently taken delivery of half a dozen Power Towers Ecolift manually operated low level lifts. The Ecolifts join around 80 Power Towers Peco lifts in the fleet.Mr Plant Hire offers a wide range of access equipment, covering London and South East England.

Great stuff guys, updating the fleet and keeping it all moving forward. We are working towards the same end, good times are ahead!! Let me know how you get on with these units in the fleet; genuine trials rather than what the brochure says.
