Shering Weighing - Testimonials
Over the years Shering have received many testimonials about our products and services.
Some of these are shown below:
"Following the Good Housekeeping Course, carried out personally by Douglas Shering to key employees, we have experienced significant improvements in terms of weighbridge performance. I am sure this will enable us to reduce costs. The course enlightened us to many aspects that are often forgotten, such as financial implications, legal aspects and practical day to day maintenance. We have received such positive feedback from employees attending the course that we intend to extend the training and hopefully reap even more benefits."
Managing Director at Veolia Greater London and South
"This is my fourth new weighbridge from Shering in recent times and the quality and technology of their weighbridges and their service dictates that they will win my weighbridge orders. Shering certainly know how to look after you and provide an excellent service, not to mention good quality haggis!"
Lafarge
The installation for Lafarge Aggregates is a heavy-duty 9020HP surface mounted weighbridge at their Finningley Quarry in Yorkshire. The weighbridge will be used to monitor and control the movement of stock using "15 tonne axle trucks" between two areas within Finningley. The system which includes tailored Sabre instrumentation, also manufactured in-house by Shering, provides various reports of stock movements on demand.
Shering note: The haggis is specially bred in the Kingdom of Fife for our weighbridge customers
"We have been delighted with the customer support received from Shering throughout the development stage of this project. Apart from the high quality of Shering weighbridges and their systems and service we have a very unique partnership of trust that benefits both parties. Knowing that our weighing equipment is in safe hands allows us to forget about the day to day operation of our computerised weighbridges and focus on more pressing matters."
Yorwaste
This is Yorwaste's seventh fully computerised Shering weighbridge system. The new weighbridge system includes a 9020LP surface mounted weighbridge together with computer hardware and a further tailored copy of their Shering Sabre 8000 software. It is sited at a recycling plant in Yorkshire and the project calls for Shering to provide suitable foundations for the new weighbridge.
"One of the attractions of the Shering package was the 'all in package' offered, which included the civil works required to house the weighbridge itself. The civil works were undertaken by a third party contractor appointed by Shering Weighing, who worked in a similarly professional manner to Shering and completed works to the time scales required.
Throughout the design, installation, and commissioning process Shering staff were helpful and went out of their way to work around the on-site working requirements of a busy quarry and landfill site. Overall the weighbridge has been installed exactly as specified, in the time specified, to a competitive budget, in a professional manner, without requiring excessive input from any of our staff who have been able to let Shering get on with the job."
Landfill Manager for Brett Waste Management
The installation for Brett Waste Management is a 16 x 3m Tiger surface mounted weighbridge 60 tonne capacity at their Elsenham site, Essex. The weighbridge installation complements the existing Shering weighbridge, which had to cope with an increasing volume of traffic due to the increase in site exports of sand and aggregates and the importing of wastes. In combination these two weighbridges allow for a 'one way system' with an in and an out weighbridge. The system can now easily cope with the heavy site traffic.
"We were really impressed with Shering Weighing with regards this weighbridge project. The quick turnaround was exceptional and the Shering team really pulled out all the stops to ensure that our deadlines were met. We are extremely happy with the results and we would definitely look to Shering in the future if we have further weighbridge requirements."
Quarry Manager at Aggregate Industries
Aggregate Industries placed the order at Shering Head Office on a Friday afternoon with the Shering Sales & Service Director. By the following Friday, less than a week later, the weighbridge was installed and stamped ready for operations to commence. The installation is a 15 x 3m Bronze surface mounted weighbridge, required to weigh out traffic, at Coleman's Quarry, Somerset.
The Sales Manager adds:
"When I received the call requesting such a quick installation on this project I knew that the Shering Team were up for the challenge. It was a case of all hands on deck and I am continually impressed with the staff at Shering, who are always willing to try their hardest to get the job done. Shering Weighing prides itself on being a weighbridge company who will not let its customers down. We treat all our customers individually, if you have a specific requirement we can promise we will do our utmost to deliver."
"We worked very closely with Shering on this project over a period of about six months. We were pleased with the negotiations and professional advice which resulted in a smooth system installation and integration. The new Shering system has not only added a new level of reliability but also really impressed us with its ease of use and its many capabilities. All of this helps us provide the best service to our customers."
Project Manager for Shanks Waste Services
Shanks Waste Services needed a system capable of controlling all transactions carried out by five weighbridge sites, situated at Oban, Lochgilphead, Rothesay, Dunoon and Campbeltown, from one centralised point. As well as collating all weighbridge transaction information from all the sites for invoice and reporting purposes the system would also have to control business accounts, product pricing, waste codes, hauliers used and duty of care requirements. Shering have responded to the requirement by producing a system which includes four Tiger weighbridges, sizes 18 x 3m and 10 x 3m surface or pit mounted depending on site considerations, as well as Shering instrumentation and computer systems for all relevant sites. The Shering weighing system allows the administration staff at Shanks UK central control point to maintain tight control and ensure efficient processing of all transactions. Monthly invoices are produced for Shanks customers, which are exported to the main accounts system for further processing.
