Summit Platforms Newcastle moves to large modern Depot to support expanding fleet and growing customer demand
Summit Platforms is delighted to announce the relocation of its Newcastle depot to a significantly larger, state-of-the-art facility, marking a major milestone in the company’s ongoing growth across the North East. Having outgrown its previous premises, Summit Platforms Newcastle has moved to a modern two-acre site, providing the space and infrastructure needed to support its rapidly expanding operations. The new depot features a contemporary building with upgraded offices, a dedicated workshop, and enhanced storage facilities, all designed to deliver the highest levels of service to customers.
Channon North, Newcastle Depot Manager, commented “The move to our new depot is a fantastic step forward for the business and our team. We’ve seen significant growth in demand for our services, and this investment gives us the capacity and environment to continue delivering for our customers. The new site is a real statement of intent for our future in the region.”
Fleet Expansion to Meet Regional Demand
The Newcastle depot’s hire fleet has grown significantly, reflecting strong demand from customers across the construction, industrial, and infrastructure sectors. The expanded fleet includes a comprehensive range of access platforms and telehandlers, ensuring Summit Platforms can supply the right equipment for every job.
Director James Watson added “Increasing our fleet means we can be even more responsive to customer needs, with greater availability and a wider choice of equipment. Our investment in the latest, most efficient machines also helps customers meet their own sustainability and productivity goals.”
First-Class Facilities and IPAF Training
The new premises also house a purpose-built IPAF training centre, enabling Summit Platforms Newcastle to deliver a full suite of industry-leading courses for customers and their teams. This further strengthens the depot’s reputation for quality, safety, and service.
Summit Platforms operates ten depots across the UK, providing modern, reliable access platforms and telehandlers, supported by highly responsive customer service. The company is dedicated to delivering the right solutions for every project, on both a national and local level.
