Who is responsible for loading bay equipment at a site in Truro?
The employer or occupier is. PUWER 1998 requires work equipment to be maintained and inspected, and the Workplace Regulations 1992 cover vehicle and pedestrian routes around the dock. In practice that means planned servicing of levellers and doors, daily pre-use checks and a clear procedure to stop trailers moving during loading.
Planning the work around your site
Before work starts we send a method statement and risk assessment, confirm who on site will be our contact and agree where materials and access equipment will go. On shared industrial estates that can mean booking yard space with the landlord.

A repair visit costs £145 to £195 ex VAT for attendance and the first hour, as a guide. Loading bay repairs typically run from £245 to £2,495 ex VAT, and for your Truro site we quote a fixed price before any parts are ordered.

Repair is usually the first step. If the platform is cracked, the pit edges are broken or repairs are frequent, we price a replacement into the existing pit alongside the repair so you can compare.
