Why crews book the A-230.

Up and over

115 ft of side reach and a jib that reaches over roofs, parapets and sidewalk sheds to the wall behind them.

Three safety systems

Built-in overload and reach limits stop the boom before it can be pushed too far.

12 ft basket

Room for up to 6 people and 1,322 lb of crew, tools and materials, so your gear goes up without a crane.

Power at height

230, 110 and 24 V in the basket, an air line and a hydraulic tool outlet.

Up in 15 minutes

The truck levels itself and the basket is in the air within 10 to 15 minutes of arrival.

Operator included

A full-time IPAF- and manufacturer-certified operator runs the lift all day.

A-230 questions, answered.

All questions →
Does the A-230 come with an operator?

Yes. Every operated rental includes a full-time certified operator, delivery, setup, fuel and insurance. Bare rental is available for crews with their own certified operator.

Is 230 ft the height I need?

Height is only half of it: side reach decides most city jobs. Send us the address and what you need to reach, and we'll pick the smallest lift that does the job.

Do you handle street permits?

Yes. We file the street and sidewalk permits and bring the cones, signs and flaggers, so your crew can focus on the work.

How soon can you get it on site?

Usually with 72 hours' notice. In an emergency, within 2 hours of your call.
