Transporting heavy construction machinery in Ghana, particularly on complex road conditions like construction sites and gravel roads, requires reliable and durable equipment. A returning Ghanaian client faced this challenge and turned to TRUCKMAN for a solution.
TRUCKMAN provided a 3-axle, 60-ton low bed semi-trailer, custom-designed to handle heavy loads and tough terrain with ease. By leveraging advanced materials and technology, including high-strength alloy steel, ZY axles, and premium Triangle tires, the client experienced significant improvements in transportation efficiency, durability, and operational reliability.
Having previously purchased two 6×4 trucks from TRUCKMAN with great satisfaction, the client once again approached TRUCKMAN to address their latest transportation needs.
