Press Release Summary: Panther Platform Rentals recently supplied the Samaritans
with a V20 truck mounted boom to take down a large banner that spanned the width of
Tunnel Road, just off Reigate High Street in Surrey. A number of avenues had been
explored in aiding the taking down of the 5 metre wide banner, but Panther Platform
Rentals came up with a suitable solution.

Press Release Body: The Samaritans' Kevin Lewis: "We had trouble in finding someone
to help us take down our banner but Panther Platform Rentals offered a quick and
easy answer when I approached them. I would just like to give a big thank you to
them for arranging a machine and operative to come and help take down our banner. It
was starting to turn into a bit of an embarrassing situation for us as the banner
had been up for a fair bit longer than we had intended".

The V20 truck mounted boom was chosen for the job as it has 21.8 metres of working
height and 9.5 metres of horizontal outreach, this meant that the operative could
take down the banner on both sides of the road without having to move the base of
the platform. It was also important that the job took no more than a few minutes as
all work had to be completed before the road became busy with pedestrians and
morning traffic.
