    Hi Richard

    We undertake in-house vehicle recovery to a point – we have a series of recovery thresholds: flat pull, use of rated kinetic strops, winching using our vehicles, Tow truck/heavy hauler or similar.

    Driving Force (Colin Rees) undertook specific training for nominated workers using recovery equipment for each threshold (not all selected individuals can recover at all levels), who are the only ones allowed to undertake any company vehicle recovery. Colin also provided advise on rated recovery points for all our vehicles, and the correct equipment required for each type.

    regards

    Stephen.
