Handling Logistics Ltd....gone into administration !

Another UK forklift parts specialist has hit the wall ! Handling Logistics Ltd went into recievership on the 12th of this month i've just heard. Music to TVH's ears, this leaves only the Midland Group, the UK's only independent forklift parts suppliers left.!!!! I remember the days when there were over 15 independent UK parts suppliers to choose from, before TVH came to town & brought up or closed down their competition. And is it just me or have there shipping & prices gone through the roof ????

yep shipping costs hi sometimes when you add the two together main agent is cheaper-have heard that handling logistics have done a bit of a phoenix and are starting again using a company name that has been dormant for the last 15 years or so
