Horizon is now in its third year in business and runs a fleet of just over 200 self propelled aerial lifts. It is also a founder member of the Access Alliance a group of independent rental companies working together to provide national coverage.
Joint managing director Ben Hirst said: “This move was very much part of Horizon’s ongoing expansion plan. Not only does the location offer superior access to motorway links and thus enables us to offer an even quicker response times to our customer’s, but it has also created a fantastic working environment for our team”
“The separate warehouse layout has allowed us to keep the workshop area separate from the training department, meaning that we now offer the largest stand alone ‘in door’ IPAF training centre in the Yorkshire region”.

It's good to see that a company who has good equipment for rental has also made the effort to provide a good base for visitors and trainees.
This looks like a nice environment where i'd be happy to send our staff to train to IPAF standards, and not some grubby yard in the back of beyond!
