Services
We can meet all your lifting needs and regularly carry out lifts in the following areas:

• Construction
• Marine & Boating
• Machinery Movement
• Spa & Pool Lifts
• Steel fabrication
• Forestry & Tree Care
• Industrial & Engineering Works
• Ornamental Structures

As full members of the Construction Plant Hire Association (CPA), all our cranes are hired out according to their industry recognised terms and conditions. We can carry out lifts based on CPA Contract Lift terms or on CPA Crane Hire terms. The differences between the two types of lift are outlined below, but to find out which is the best option for your needs, simply call us on 0800 804 6696 or email enquiries@aliftcranehire.co.uk

CPA Crane Hire
Often the best option if you:

• Have experience of organising crane lifts
• Have qualified personnel who can plan and manage the lift
• Have insurance to cover all contract equipment, personnel and goods being lifted

Under the terms of CPA Crane Hire, responsibility for planning and supervising the lift remains with the customer, along with the insurance liability. The customer's Appointed Person is responsible for planning the lift and for all the personnel and equipment involved. We are responsible for supplying a competent operator and a crane fit for the intended purpose. We can also supply a qualified slinger-signaller if required.

CPA Contract Lift
Often the best option if you:

• Don't have experience or qualifications for organising crane lifts
• Don't want the responsibility of planning and managing the lift on the day
• Don't have insurance to cover contract equipment, personnel and goods being lifted

Under the terms of a CPA Contract Lift, the crane, equipment, operator and all personnel supplied with the crane are the responsibility of the crane company. The crane company is responsible for all aspects of planning and executing the lift, thus reducing risk and ensuring the lift complies fully with BS7121.

Equipment
We have the flexibility to meet all your lifting requirements. Our all-terrain cranes and 7 tonne lorry mounted cranes enable us to access and manoeuvre in both limited spaces and on difficult ground, whilst our larger cranes enable us to lift heavier loads at greater reach. We can provide all the necessary lifting tackle, ground mats and equipment required for each job. We will also happily arrange haulage on your behalf if this required as part of the lift operation e.g when carrying out machinery movement.

Our crane operators and slinger-signallers are all fully CPCS qualified, and qualified Appointed Persons and Crane Supervisors are supplied with all Contract Lifts.

Man baskets and cages are available for hire separately and can be attached to telescopic fork lifts for use independently e.g. to carry out work to the exterior of a property. They are also available for hire with the crane where a higher reach is needed.
