This is where Gerlock’s incident management program comes into play.

From traffic control to emergency lighting and photo documentation, Gerlock’s emergency response team will ensure your needs are taken care of.

Airbag & Air Cushion Recovery

Gerlock’s Air Bag Recovery services are highly sought after. Uprighting an overturned trailer always comes with the risk of momentum causing the trailer to topple over the other way! The clever use of Matjack air bags and air cushions allows teams to upright fully loaded trailers in a controlled environment. Airbag and air cushion recovery have been shown to reduce any additional damage to your cargo and your vehicle.

Yes, using this technique to lift overturned trailers is a lot faster than traditional recovery techniques. That being said, the main benefit of using air cushions is the added safety it brings to the vehicle and to everyone involved in the recovery process.
