Professional HIAB Crane Services

HIAB operations are at the core of what we do. Our fleet of modern, well-maintained HIAB cranes (also known as lorry-mounted cranes or loader cranes) provides efficient, safe, and cost-effective solutions for lifting and transporting heavy or awkward loads.

A HIAB crane is mounted directly onto the lorry, allowing us to transport your goods and have the lifting equipment on-site simultaneously. This eliminates the need for separate crane hire and delivery, saving you time and money while reducing site disruption.

  • Ensure the ground is level and firm - containers are heavy (2-4 tonnes empty)
  • Check overhead clearances for power lines, trees, or structures
  • Allow adequate access for our HIAB truck (minimum 3m width)
  • Consider drainage - containers should sit off the ground on blocks or pads
  • Check planning permissions if required for your location
