The Service

What Hiab Lorry Hire Gets You

Every vehicle in our fleet carries a powerful loader crane behind the cab or at the rear of the bed, so it loads and unloads itself wherever it goes. Your goods travel secured to a full-size lorry bed and arrive with their own lifting solution on board.

  • Rigid lorries for tight access and urban work
  • Artics and flatbeds for long or multiple loads
  • Chains, slings and spreader equipment carried as standard
  • Experienced driver-operators on every job

Compare with truck hire with crane or ask us which vehicle suits your load.

Built for Real-World Sites

Our drivers position cabins and containers on prepared bases, in yards and on sites with restricted access. Outriggers spread the vehicle’s weight, and lifts are planned before the boom ever leaves its cradle.

If your site is genuinely awkward, send us photos in advance and we will plan around it. It is far better than finding a problem on the day.

Whatever the Season Throws at Us

Frozen compounds in January, festival fields in July — the work does not stop and neither do we. Loads are sheeted, strapped and checked before every mile, and our drivers carry the experience to adapt when conditions change mid-job.

Need the lorry for a stretch rather than a day? Rental terms are often the better value for recurring work.

FAQ

Common Questions

What does hiab lorry hire include?

Every booking includes the vehicle, a trained driver who operates the crane, lifting equipment such as chains, brothers and slings, and full insurance for the load in transit. You simply tell us what needs moving.

What is the difference between a rigid and an artic hiab lorry?

A rigid carries shorter loads and gets into tighter sites; an artic carries longer and heavier cargo, such as multiple cabins or long steel. We will recommend the right vehicle when you describe the job.

How far in advance should I book?

A few days notice usually secures the slot you want, and longer for complex lifts. That said, we keep some flexibility in the diary, so always ask about short-notice jobs.

Do you do container and cabin moves?

Yes — moving shipping containers, portable cabins and welfare units is the bread and butter of our fleet, from single units to full site setups.

What is a self-loading lorry and is that what you provide?

Yes. A self-loading lorry — also called a hiab lorry or lorry loader — carries its own crane mounted to the vehicle chassis. It loads and unloads without any equipment on site, which is exactly what we provide. Driver and crane are included with every booking.

Do you cover all of the UK with your hiab lorries?

Yes. Our artic and rigid hiab lorries run nationwide across England, Scotland and Wales. All jobs are quoted at a fixed all-in price regardless of location, so no surprises when the invoice arrives.
