CP Hire, a Northern Ireland-based company with seven depots in Northern Ireland, as well as depots in Bristol, Cardiff and Swansea, is set to undergo a comprehensive fleet upgrade and improved support services starting early 2024.

To facilitate this, CP Hire will hold a stock rotation sale at Balla Lorry Park in Hallen, BS10 7GD on February 29th and March 1st, managed by Euro Auctions, the leading auctioneer of heavy construction machinery in Europe.

The sale catalogue will feature over 400 well-maintained machines in an unreserved "off-site" sale. Following a change in management, with David and Andrew Hutchinson taking control of the GB operation, Director David Hutchinson outlines the company's plans to overhaul plant stock and service provisions.

"Since 1971, we have been providing quality equipment and first-class customer service, which have been the cornerstones of our operation. Buying only quality brands and keeping our fleet fresh and well-maintained, alongside our ‘on-site’ service provision, has seen us develop and maintain a very strong and loyal customer base." "The next stage in the development of our business and our new management structure in England and Wales, reinforces our service provision to our customers which focuses on our on-site back-up service and quality equipment. Our vision is to emulate what we do in Northern Ireland, where we strive to be on-site within 1-hour of a breakdown. Our plans for 2024 include investing in a new plant across all depots in Northern Ireland, Bristol, Swansea and Cardiff, plus a new fleet of service vehicles."

"The management team in Northern Ireland will have an active role to play on the ground, as we build on our England / Wales presence along the M4 corridor, helping to assist our existing and well-established team in those depots. It will take a couple of months to implement the service plan and fine-tune the systems, but we are very confident we can be consistent with our fleet quality and (due to geographical areas) keep to our 2-hour breakdown service goal."

Euro Auctions David Betts comments on the upcoming sale: “This is a very tidy inventory of fresh, well-maintained machines. CP Hire does take very good care of their fleet, and a regular rotation is commonplace. Whilst this sale will draw a good crowd in the local area, the Euro Auctions strength is reaching out to an international audience. We expect good bidding on multiple machines, such is the quality.”
