Installations & Large Machinery Relocation

At Pulleyn we believe that installing new heavy equipment or transporting fine art isn’t just about the delivery. We’ll take care of the installation or transportation every step of the way. We carry out pre-delivery surveys to assess exactly what will be required and how the job can be carried the most efficiently. Once we know exactly what is needed we can take the strain and provide all the right tools to do the job from packing to placement.

Our team has over 30 years’ experience of pan European installation services and we take great pride in the careful planning and preparation of each and every job. We can assure our customers of the safe delivery or installation of your equipment wherever its final destination.

Our experienced logistics and customer services team carry out careful planning for each job with the utmost care and consideration. They make sure that every eventuality from planning the route, the timings and the management of customs clearance for transporting or importing goods into non-EU countries has been explored and is fully covered.

Occasionally the job dictates that building alterations may need to be carried out (where permitted), scaffolding may require erecting or lifting equipment may be needed because of restricted access – whatever the job needs you can rely on Pulleyn to carry it out as smoothly as trouble-free as humanly possible.

Nothing is ever left to chance because we have planned ahead, pre-prepared and our highly trained, friendly staff are extremely experienced.

We have 55 vehicles that provide a wide range of logistical options to suit the job.  Our modern fleet has specialist equipment including tail lifts, air ride suspension, load restraint points, specialist handling equipment and range in size from 4.5 tonne through to 40 tonne. Our trailers have been specifically designed to cater for heavy items with slide out aluminium ramps, strong interior lighting and load restraint rails to control heavy goods in transit.

Pulleyn's friendly and courteous drivers are fully employed and are totally ‘hands on’ and accessible at all stages of the journey. They have extensive experience of international driving laws and restrictions throughout Europe and beyond and are trained by our own Directors in the safe handling and loading of heavy goods.  They all wear the Pulleyn uniform with pride and most have been with our family run company for many years.

Regular communication is a vital part of the entire process and our drivers are in constant contact with our Support Team in Reading. They are informed and in control no matter what the situation. However, should the need arise, they are all very experienced and highly trained so they will provide a solution if the unexpected such as road blocks, diversions or weather problems should occur.

Each vehicle is fitted with a number of security devices, including deadlocks, bulldog trailer locks, Chereau trailer locks, plate locks, security gates, panic buttons, immobilisers, lockable internal dividing doors, cab door security locks, cab gas sensors, and alarm systems. Identity marking on roofs enables easy vehicle recognition from the air.
