United’s managing director, David Maxwell added: “When the Haulotte relationship started we were a small Western Australian business with two branches and only 20 employees. Now we have 11 locations across Australia and one the largest rental fleets in Australia supported by 455 employees.”
“The first machine we ordered was a HA120PX, which was a basic machine compared to the advanced versions available today. It was great to see that the Compact 10DX was our 5,000t, this machine is a true workhorse of the industry, with its 4WD capabilities and robust design. Our philosophy is having quality product with quality people, so together with Haulotte, we are continually aiming to deliver this every day.”
Based in Perth, Western Australia, United has been part of the Elphinstone group since 2015, and offers a range of aerial work platforms, telehandler forklifts, pallet trucks and reachstackers from a dozen locations across all Australian states and territories including Tasmania.
