TIP Trailer Services UK has acquired the entire share capital of Bell Trailers (Rental).
Under the deal, which was successfully concluded on August 21, Bell Trailers will continue to operate from its site in Nelson, Lancashire, and retain its current management team.
Bell Trailers was established in 1988 and has operated from its existing site in Nelson since 1998.
It has built up its fleet of 1,400 rental trailers through strong organic growth.
The fleet is predominantly made up of curtain sided trailers, although there are also refrigerated, box van and skeletal trailers.

“The addition of TIP’s service products, combined with our UK and European network, should only enhance the excellent service currently being provided”
Michael Bell, MD at Bell Trailers added: “The timing was right for us to complete this deal and we firmly believe that further growth will be achieved under the ownership of a company that we trust, and will continue to provide excellent service to our existing customers.”
