Shunting is specialized work that involves skilled drivers who have the ability to maneuver trailers often in fast paced, tight and congested yards without causing damage to trailers, cargo inside a trailer, dock doors, yard fences, the yard itself if dropping a trailer and most important, without injuring someone due to unsafe practices.
For companies unfamiliar with shunting they may think it sounds easy, however even if successful in avoiding damages, there is a challenge in finding and keeping experienced shunt drivers who are both productive and operate safely.
Additionally, regardless of looking to lease or purchase a shunt truck, they can be difficult to procure however due to our experience in the shunt space, we know where to obtain our assets either in Canada or the USA.
Also, often overlooked by an inexperienced company seeking to perform their own shunt work is the level of preventative maintenance involved to keep the shunt truck operating efficiently as the preventative maintenance schedules for shunt trucks are significantly more robust versus a tractor.
