Cherry picker hire in Colne
Need to get someone safely to height in Colne? We hire out a truck-mounted cherry picker with a qualified operator to work it — brought to the job, set up and run on site, whether that's a shopfront in the middle of Colne or a roof out near Alkincoats Park, Colne Market or Boundary Mill.
We'll bring the truck out to you. Colne is our home town, so there's barely a run on it at all. The day rate is the day rate; fuel is charged at cost and confirmed when we quote, and on a job here in Colne there's next to none of it. Further afield it simply carries a bit more — nothing hidden either way.
What you get for the day rate
The machine and the operator
You are not hiring a truck and working out the rest yourself. The day rate covers the cherry picker and a qualified operator to work it.
Safe set-up and operation on site
We position the truck, set it up, and operate it for the duration of the job — so the working at height, and the responsibility for doing it safely, sits with us.
Delivered and collected
The machine arrives on site and leaves again with us. There is nothing for you to transport, licence, or store.
What it costs in Colne
Day rates from £156 ex. VAT
- That's the truck on its own. Add £200/day for the qualified operator to work it — the machine-and-operator rate is what most people want.
- A banksman can be provided if your site needs one, for an extra £150/day— useful on tighter sites or where traffic/pedestrian management is needed. Let us know when you enquire and we'll confirm if you need one.
- Fuel at cost on top, worked out on the run to Colne and confirmed when we quote — never a made-up flat figure.
- Rates run up to £595/day operated for the biggest machines, by reach and model.
A qualified operator
The machine is worked by an operator holding the relevant operator certification for it (IPAF/CSCS as applicable). Working at height is the part of this job that goes wrong, and it's the part you're hiring out — so in Colneit's done by someone qualified to do it, not handed to you with the keys.
If you need to see the certification for your own site paperwork, ask when you ring and we'll get it to you.
