Our dedicated team of Heavy Lift Engineers possess the expert skills and knowledge required to manoeuvre, position, extract and relocate cargoes utilising our Crane Hire, Contract Lift and Jacking & Skidding services. Undertaking all lifting responsibilities our in-house Appointed Persons, Slinger, Banksmen and Crane Lift Supervisors, operating under Contract Lift Conditions, can provide Crane Hire services directly tailored to our client's individual requirements. Coupled with this, and ahead of the commencement of any lifting operations, our Team provide all the necessary surveys, lift plans, method statements and risk assessments to ensure maximum safety at all times. Where Crane Hire is not a suitable option we operate a hydraulic lifting gantry or for working in more confined spaces.

Our team of highly trained, experienced professionals can analyse the impact of abnormal loads on the surrounding environment identifying any amendments which may be required for safe passage. Possessing detailed knowledge of our specialist tractors, trailers and SPMTs, we apply the practical transport considerations of abnormal load vehicles. Our team understands the behaviour of abnormal load vehicles and has extensive knowledge of transport regulations, environmental considerations and planning requirements. For Heavy Transport projects we routinely undertake Route Access Surveys, Swept Path Analysis, Topographical Surveys, Traffic Management Plans, Visual Route Inspections, Test Drives and Environmental Impact Assessments.

Traffic management plans include TTRO (Temporary Traffic Regulation Order), route planning and access reports to plan the movement of abnormal load heavy transport projects. Utilising all the data collated whilst undertaking swept path analysis reports, topographical surveys, visual route inspections, route access surveys and test drives, our Transport Consulting Team will provide comprehensive traffic management plans detailing all aspects of your heavy transport project. These traffic management plans and heavy transport surveying services identify current heavy transport legislation applicable to each individual abnormal load project.
