Traction-only capacity when you need it
If you have the trailer but need a tractor unit and driver, McKinney can provide traction-only support from Liverpool. It is a straightforward way to add pulling capacity without changing the trailer, load or equipment already allocated to the job.
A wide range of customer-supplied trailers
Traction-only work can be discussed for compatible curtainsiders, box trailers, refrigerated trailers, tankers, tippers, skeletal trailers, flat or platform trailers and other suitable semi-trailers. Specialist work is subject to the trailer, load, coupling, driver qualification and site requirements being agreed before the job.
Where traction-only support works well
Refrigerated trailers
Additional tractor-unit and driver capacity for compatible customer-supplied refrigerated trailers, subject to the job requirements.
Tankers & tippers
Traction can be discussed for compatible tanker and tipper work where the operating and driver requirements are suitable.
Curtainsiders, boxes & flats
Flexible traction support for standard commercial semi-trailers already allocated to the customer’s work.
Skeletal trailers
Traction-only support for customer-supplied skeletal trailers where the container and terminal arrangements are already in place.
Short-term cover
Additional traction when a tractor unit is off the road, workload increases or temporary capacity is required.
Repeat work
Speak to McKinney about regular traction where the trailer, route and operating requirements are already established.
