Where did Liftrucks come from?
Camson Hoist Hire, our parent company, was established in the 1970s by Blair Robson. Initially, Camson specialized in forklift rentals in the local area, however the sale and rental of new and used forklifts gradually increased to businesses Auckland wide. Over the years, word of mouth and a commitment to quality service expanded the business nationally and the company experienced significant growth, eventually becoming the fourth-largest in New Zealand. In order to better serve the market, Liftrucks New Zealand Ltd was formed to focus exclusively on forklift sales and NZ representation for its OEM brands.
PREMIUM FORKLIFTS AT AFFORDABLE PRICES
We are a family business based right here in New Zealand. What does this mean for you? Well, our overheads are low. So, while our brands typically sell for a premium in other parts of the world, through us they are highly affordable. In fact, in almost all cases, the prices of our parts and tyres are lower than any other New Zealand forklift company.
OVER 30 SPECIALIST FORKLIFT TECHNICIANS
All our service technicians are forklift specialists. And with over 30 throughout New Zealand, we have the most forklift specialists in the country. Liftrucks focus is solely on lifting logistics equipment. This, of course, means we are able to provide faster, more knowledgeable professional servicing.
PAUL ROBSON, OWNER
Paul Robson began his career working for his father, Blair. Paul has now been working in the forklift industry for over 20 years and with degrees in engineering and computer science, he is one of the leading materials handling specialists in New Zealand. With public or offshore-owned companies, decision making is often slow because head office or a Board of Directors must be consulted. In contrast, Paul is very much hands-on and involved in every forklift sale. So, decisions are made quickly. And if you have a problem or need information, you can talk with Paul directly.
