  • Self-drive access platforms
  • Van mount platforms
The difference between self drive and operated platform lift hire;

Self drive access platform hire
 
  • No downtime on site waiting for a machine to arrive
  • Operate practically all of our fleet on a standard driving licence
  • We can provide a direct site delivery service
  • You control when the machine is collected and returned
Operated access platform hire (operated by us)
 
  • Ideal for our clients who need to use our 26m platforms that don't have 7.5 tonne licences.
  • One all in charge for a standard day rate
  • Use one of our fully qualified experienced access platform operators
There are many featured to our range of van and truck mounted access platforms due to their great mobility. Unlike traditional scaffolding, self propelled cherry pickers and booms, you can use our vehicle mounted booms to do several jobs all on the same hire. Visit multiple sites and spread the cost of the hire over several jobs; making for an even more cost effective working at height solution. The truck mounts are generally much lighter than equivalent working height self propelled platforms, so can be used on a wider range of applications.

Not only do they have great mobility, most models have a rotating basket which you can keep flush to larger surface areas without the need to continually step down from the platform.

They also have outriggers that can be deployed when working on uneven gradients which non jacking self propelled platforms can’t address.  The majority of models have footprints that, even with outriggers deployed, fit easily within a standard car park space.

As a bonus, many of our smaller access platform models feature generously sized storage boxes that can be used to store your equipment and materials.

Our truck mounts are generally much lighter than equivalent working height self propelled platforms, so can be used on a wider range of applications.
