  • Transporting mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs) is always a big challenge in the equipment rental industry. The loading and unloading of MEWPs is potentially a high-risk activity due to the low chassis design of MEWPs. According to IPAF accident reporting database, nearly a third of the accidents recorded by the rental companies occur during the delivery and collection process. Ground-level loading/unloading MEWPs features can effectively reduce the potential risk and provide a safe working environment.
