Boom lift permits.
Not your problem.

We get the street permit, post the no-parking signs and bring the cones and flaggers. You never deal with the city. Your crew just shows up and works.

From the street to the basket.

  1. We check the street

    We look at the address, the lane and the sidewalk, and what the city requires to set up the lift there.

  2. We get the permit

    We file the road work permit, so you never deal with the city.

  3. Signs the night before

    No-parking signs go up at the job site the night before, so the space is clear in the morning.

  4. Cones and flaggers on the day

    The lane closure is set up and staffed while your crew works at height.

What we take off your plate.

Permits filed for you

Road work permits for the street where the lift sets up, when the job needs one.

Traffic control

Cones, barriers and a closed-off zone below the basket. Free when you rent a lift.

Flaggers

Our flaggers keep cars and people away from the work zone all day.

No-parking signs

Posted the night before, so the lift has its spot when it arrives.

You know where things stand

We keep you posted on the permit, so you can plan the crew and the day.

Outside New York too

Permits and traffic control for jobs from Boston to Florida, wherever our lifts go.

Permit questions, answered.

All questions →
Do I need a permit for a boom lift?

When the lift sets up on a street, lane or sidewalk, the city usually requires a permit. On private property it often does not. Tell us the address and we'll check what your job needs.

Who gets the permit?

We do. We get the road work permit for your job site if one is needed, so you never deal with the city.

How long does a permit take?

It depends on the city and the street. Call 855-2000-855 with the address and the date and we'll tell you how far ahead to book.

Is traffic control included?

Yes. Cones, signs and the closed-off work zone come with the lift, and flaggers keep cars and people away while your crew works.

Do you handle permits outside New York City?

Yes, wherever our lifts work, from Boston to Florida.

Book your lift. We handle the rest.
