April 11, 2008 • Bridgeview, Ill.-based Lifting Gear Hire plans to open its 10th warehouse in an effort to better serve its growing customer base throughout the Great Plains. Lifting Gear Hire will open its newest warehouse facility in Kansas City, Mo., on May 1. The 6,400-square-foot building will house a variety of equipment, including hoists, MyTe winches, hydraulic rams, modular lifting beams, and gantries • an inventory valued at $1 million.
As a means of added safety and certification, the new facility has the capability to test hoists with a capacity up to 25 tons.
While Lifting Gear Hire has existing warehouses in St. Louis, Mo., and Dallas, Texas, the new facility will reduce delivery time and transportation costs and will expand its rental capabilities in Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, and western Kansas. The Kansas City warehouse will provide same-day or overnight delivery to locations in surrounding states.
