Get in touch
  • What is a Hiab?

    A Hiab is a lorry with its own crane mounted on it, so a load can be lifted on and off the back without separate lifting equipment. Hiab is a brand name, but it has become the everyday word for a lorry-mounted crane.

  • Do you supply an operator?

    Yes. Our operators are fully qualified, and every lift is carried out under strict safety protocols.

  • Can you lift and deliver scaffolding and building materials?

    Yes. Scaffolding, building materials, machinery and site equipment are what our Hiab vehicles are used for most often.

  • Do you offer crane hire?

    Yes — lorry-mounted crane hire, with a fully trained operator on every hire. It sets up quickly and can lift at several points on the same job, which suits sites where space and time are tight.

  • Do you offer one-off hires?

    Yes. Whether you need ongoing support or a single lift or delivery, we tailor the hire to your project.

  • How much can you lift?

    It depends on the weight and size of the load and how far it has to reach. Tell us what needs lifting — roughly what it weighs, its size and where it’s going — and we’ll confirm what the job needs.

    We’re based in Airth, Stirlingshire, and proudly serve clients in Falkirk, Clackmannanshire, Fife, and across Scotland. If your project falls outside these areas, feel free to get in touch — we may still be able to help.
