Sunbelt Rentals has taken delivery of 15 Hyster H16XD6 Big Trucks from UK-based company Briggs Equipment.

We have been through an extensive process to ensure that the equipment meets Sunbelt Rentals requirements to support their customers and colleagues both today and in the future.
“The specialist container handlers are manufactured by Hyster and feature the latest technology and ergonomic features to ensure a more comfortable, safe and productive working environment for operators.”
Ian Needham, director of accommodation, Sunbelt Rentals UK and Ireland, added that the partnership is in line with its growing and evolving Accommodation offerings; “We are thrilled about the addition of H16XD6 lift trucks to our fleet. Our decision to partner with Briggs Equipment and Hyster was carefully made, considering their excellent safety and reliability records and commitment to providing driver comfort features in their equipment.”
