Lifting Gear Hire In Yorkshire & Lancashire

Home to some of Englands biggest cities outside of the countrys south east the White

Rose County of Yorkshire & Red Rose County of Lancashire stretch from Englands east to west coast. A few of you will no doubt now be pointing out that Liverpool is more likely to be referred to as in the borough of Merseyside these days and you would be right but history allows us to lump it in with Lancashire still.

So why when living in the Yorkshire/Lancashire areas might lifting gear hire be so popular. Well with constantly expanding and developing cities like Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds construction work is a constant process.

Lifting gear hire as a whole cannot be approached too simply due to the sheer variety of gear out there and also the bespoke approach each job requires resulting in different kit for different jobs.

After you have reached a decision on the correct piece or pieces of equipment for the work you are undertaking it is important to check on the pedigree of potential lifting gear suppliers and also if possible do some research in to the safety record of their equipment.

All lifting gear available for hire or sale across Yorkshire and Lancashire should be fully safety tested, PAT tested by a registered engineer if it is electrical equipment (some lifting gear hire centres will carry out PAT testing on site) and all equipment must confirm statutory regulations.

Also a point of consideration would be the transport of any leased lifting equipment. If you belong to a large firm getting access to suitable transport especially for larger kit is unlikely to be an issue, likewise if you are a self employed tradesman you will no doubt have easy access to suitable transport.

If transport is an issue for any reason, potentially it may be due to you doing some domestic work (large domestic work) you should endeavour to find a hire company who as well supplying the kit can offer a pick up and drop off service for your gear. A service such as this may also come in handy even if you have your own transport as gear could potentially be waiting at site when you get there rather than you having to go out of your way to get it on your way in.

Among all of this you should keep in mind LOLER which came in to force in 1998 and stands for Lifting Operations, Lifting Equipment Regulations. This act replaced all previous legislation surrounding lifting gear.
