UK rogue trader

Keep a look out for an UpRight AB62 articulated boom lift that has been stolen and the rogue trader that took it - Irons Design and Build.

An UpRight AB62, articulated boom lift, serial number 1346, owned by Nationwide Platforms, the unit was rented to a seemingly bona fide company in the UK, the rental invoices were returned as not being at the given site address in and a subsequent inspection confirmed that the company had disappeared with the machine.

The company is:
Irons Design and Build
Victory House
400 Pavilion Drive
Northampton Business park
NN47PA

The police are investigating the company and its main director Jamie Irons,

It seems though that this is not the first time the company has done this, it also has an extremely poor payment record as well as a number of county court judgments against it.

If the AB62 is spotted or if a spare part is requested for it, please contact Nationwide Platforms or ourselves.
