Bartrums adds dual-branded trailers as part of £4m fleet investment

Bartrums has expanded its fleet with the addition of 15 new dual-branded trailers carrying both the Bartrums and Pallet-Track branding.

The Suffolk-based haulage operator said the investment forms part of a wider £4m fleet and infrastructure programme planned for 2026.

The new trailers join a fleet of more than 200 vehicles and mark the company’s long-standing relationship with pallet network Pallet-Track, which Bartrums joined as a founding shareholder member in 2004.

Tremayne Johnson, operations director at Bartrums, said: “As founding members of Pallet Track in 2004 we couldn’t be prouder of our new dual-branded trailers.

“Our membership of Pallet Track is absolutely integral to our overall portfolio of services and our significant investment into these trailers makes us really happy.

“All our customers will also see them so it’s a great way to raise awareness of our network and visibly demonstrate this alliance.

“This is just the start of a big year for us in terms of procurement and expanding our fleet, and we’re glad to start this with our dual-branded Pallet-Track and Bartrums trailers.”

Twelve of the new trailers have been supplied by German manufacturer Schmitz Cargobull.
