Hiab Hire News & Planning Guides
Practical advice for planning crane-assisted haulage, lifting and delivery work.
Practical information
Plan crane-lorry work with confidence
Our news and planning guides explain the information that helps our team assess crane-assisted enquiries efficiently. Topics include confirming load dimensions and weight, checking collection and delivery access, understanding lifting radius and supplying useful photographs of the load and its intended position.
We also cover common movements involving portable cabins, shipping containers, machinery, plant, abnormal loads and long-reach lifting work. Each article provides general guidance rather than replacing an assessment of the individual job. Vehicle choice and lifting arrangements will always depend on the confirmed load, route, site access, ground conditions and final positioning requirements.
New guidance is published throughout the year. Browse the latest articles below, or contact our office if you need advice about a particular collection, lift or delivery in Lancashire or elsewhere in the UK.
