The objective of the system is to supply a handling service to ports/depots that either don’t have any handling equipment or to supplement existing on site equipment.
The unique mobility of the machinery system allows a JST Services loader to be at any port in the UK and Ireland within hours of a call, with loading or unloading commencing upon arrival.
The original concept of this transport system was pioneered by John Scott, owner of JST Services. Through partnerships with machine and trailer manufacturers; the first machine was completed and became operational in 2004. The results achieved were outstanding, resulting in further machines being added to the fleet. This now totals 18 fully mobile knuckle boom loaders ranging from 25 to 60 tons.
By efficiently dovetailing with our other in house departments, we can both design and provide turnkey logistics solution packages (i.e. shipping/handling and haulage) to compliment the Mobile Port Handling machinery.
