Facebook Linkedin Email

The new year is here. One thing is for sure, there are a number of advancements in our services that I’m excited about as we gear up to make the coming months as successful as possible for our clients.

At the top of that list are our new mobile semi trailer trucks. These are mobile maintenance trucks with elevated platforms. You may be wondering what this means and why it’s such a big deal for us as well as our clients.

Well, these trucks are a big extension of the service we provide. They reinforce our commitment to safety first and give us the ability to put our technicians in a position (literally) to to take care of our clients’ trailers.

This new innovative design enables us to safely and efficiently provide service on trailers by using a large and stable platform. This opens the door to providing complete truck AND trailer maintenance for the first time. Take a look at the features…

Safety First, In ALL Situations

While this is a big breakthrough for our technicians and clients, our focus on safety really begins with our SAFETY FIRST approach that exists all throughout our training program.

The concept of Safety First begins Day #1 with every new hire that joins the Dickinson team and continues through our week long training orientation. During this time, we make sure each employee is familiar with our SAFETY FIRST acronym and understands the importance of maintaining a safety first attitude while performing their job – no matter where they might be.

The “FIRST” in the SAFETY FIRST acronym is explained below…

F FIND all hazards.

I IDENTIFY the risks.

R REPORT all incidents.

S STAY focused on task.

T TOGETHER we are safe.

Our innovative elevated platforms allow us to put a continual focus on worker safety for our fleet partners by providing this service the RIGHT way. We are thrilled to begin rolling out the elevated platforms as part of our lineup. Being able to take care of our clients tractors and trailers will allow us to provide an even more comprehensive solution to our clients. But most importantly, we will be able to provide it SAFELY.
