Before Simpsons Group - Lorry Mounted Crane Hire was born, the Simpsons family first purchased number 83 Thorpe Lane back in 1958, this is where the Simpsons first business came together, as Simpson Coal and Coke haulage, selling and transporting coal around Leeds.
In 1985 there were an opportunity within the car dismantling industry, as a result adjustments were made to the land of 83 Thorpe Lane.
As experienced hauliers, we began to look at other haulage opportunities. That’s where DPW Simpson Lorry Mounted Crane Hire also began, transporting portable buildings throughout the UK. Our haulage is still running and trading as P Simpson & Sons Ltd.
