Each business offers its own unique service – road transport, mobile crane hire and warehousing – and for some tasks, these services are coordinated into one logistical offering to the client. To hear about our newest offering, click here.
Driven by the needs and preferences of each customer, cost structures can be quoted to incorporate all aspects of the logistical solution in one entity or billed separately while still being centrally coordinated.

Fleet Reliability
Quality Service starts with fleet maintenance and reliability.
We pride ourselves on delivering quality service to our clients. The first part of our service equation is to ensure our fleet is well maintained and up to the task at hand. To achieve this, the Russell group of companies has access to an onsite general-purpose fleet workshop.

> Welding
> Spray painting
> Auto-electrical
> Wash and fuelling facilities
> Maha brake testing and suspension play detector *
