In the demanding world of heavy haulage, the two keys to getting the job done right are innovation and collaboration. We believe that all Australian businesses deserve not just a powerful piece of equipment that can handle their major transportation needs, but also a partner that’s there to help them drive growth and achieve their goals when they really need it.
This is what marks the Drake Group’s commitment to the best service for all clients and partners, especially with established companies like Johnson & Young Cranes. We were proud to work with this major player in the Victoria crane hire industry, providing them an incredible new Drake 10×8 steerable platform trailer, which will make a serious difference in their haulage capabilities.
Drake Group and Johnson & Young Cranes
Johnson & Young Cranes is one of the most exciting up and coming crane hire companies in Victoria, having provided dependable mobile crane solutions to a large number of huge civil and commercial projects since their founding in 2017.
While they have an impressive fleet of some of Australia’s biggest and most effective cranes, what Johnson & Young needed was a way to effectively transport their cranes to statewide project sites easily, efficiently, and without delay. In particular, they needed to move their Liebherr LTM1750 – a massive telescopic mobile crane that’s used for some of the biggest and most heavy-duty civil and industrial projects in the country.
Enter the Drake Group, and our steerable platform trailer.
What makes the 10×8 steerable platform trailer a gamechanger for Johnson & Young?
Based on the requirements of Johnson & Young Crane needing to transport their colossal Liebherr LTM1750 crane, we provided them with a sleek orange and matte-black 10×8 steerable platform trailer, which is ideal for transporting heavy machinery and equipment across long distances.
One of the best parts of this specially designed and custom crafted platform trailer is its ability to facilitate quick interstate moves with its steerable axles and without the need to disassemble the crane being carried, making it easier to meet the different state road regulations that must be met along the way.
This not only reduces mobilisation times, but also ensures that the crane can be deployed on-site faster – which, in turn, saves valuable time and resources for Johnson & Young in the process.
So what’s next?
At the Drake Group, we don’t only take pride in delivering cutting-edge transport solutions across a wide range of industries. We also do our best to partner with local companies to help provide reliable, efficient, and cutting-edge transportation options that truly help their business grow.
We’re proud to have delivered on our commitment in delivering innovative, efficient, and stylish transport solutions, and our 10×8 steerable platform trailer is just one example of how we are helping all our partners stay ahead in their respective industries. We congratulate Johnson & Young Cranes on an amazing job well done with their brand new crane, and look forward to providing them with plenty more platforms in the future!
