We are absolutely delighted to introduce something a little different from MacKenzie Transport Services🚚💨🤐
We’ve just unveiled two limited edition additions to our HIAB fleet, our highest specification trucks and cranes to date. This time, we’ve stepped away from our traditional colours to tell a story that’s close to home!
🏡The Story
The grey represents the iron that built our village. Forth and Wilsontown were home to the Wilsontown Ironworks, founded in 1779, the second coke-fired ironworks in Scotland and the very first in Lanarkshire. It put this place on the map, growing a remote upland spot into a community of thousands.
The gloss black accents nod to what came after: the coal mining that sustained Forth and Wilsontown for generations once the ironworks closed, and shaped the working character of this village for well over a century.
The traditional red stays exactly where it belongs, on our bumpers, a link back to the MacKenzie identity our clients and drivers know us by.
🏗️ The Spec
✔️Two Volvo FH trucks, one carrying a Palfinger PK 92002-SH and the other a Palfinger PK 78002-SH
✔️Fly jib fitted for lifting out to 28m, or removed when the job calls for extra heavy lifting
✔️Front legs mounted on Volvo’s frame extension, giving full 360° lifting without compromising on capacity
👏🏽 The Beam
✔️Aluex 10+ aluminium cross beam from Aluexbeams, rated to 10 tonnes
✔️Weighs only 75kg, so it takes very little away from what the crane can lift
✔️Four-point lift that spreads the load and keeps slings clear of the cargo, ideal for awkward and sensitive goods
Together they make up some of the most versatile equipment we’ve ever put on the road, dedicated to the loyal customers who’ve made this investment possible❤️
Two trucks, one village’s industrial history, our future 🚚💨
