Another interesting exchange today 💪

This time it was a hot tub exchange, lifting one out of the garden and another into the garden and carefully positioning it into its new home. Not the easiest access, but that’s exactly where our HIAB comes into its own. 💪🏻

Hire a vehicle and operator who can do it all 😉

Lifting in the morning and shifting plant in the afternoon 🤷‍♂️

Our rigid beavertail HIAB doesn’t clock off halfway through the day — it gets the job done, whatever’s next. 💪

From site lifts to plant moves, it’s one truck, one operator, no messing about.
