PROFESSIONAL OPERATORSRegardless of the work that we perform, the safety of our workers, clients and pedestrians is a top priority. That is why all of our truck mounted lift operators undergo IPAF (Powered Access Federation) certification training. -
ATTACHMENTSAside from a whopping 230 ft height reach, the truck mounts are enhanced by different attachments that extend their applications to lifting objects, glass, filming, being used in a rough terrain and having extra space capacity. -
TRAFFIC MANAGEMENTWe make sure that you don't have to deal with managing the traffic, getting permits and setting up the lift. We will deal with the DOT, close off the street, provide a flagman and set up the lift when it arrives on the spot.
HOW WE ARE DIFFERENT
The process of renting a lift with our professional and certified operator is very simple:
- Call us and tell us about your project. If needed we will schedule an onsite walkthrough to evaluate the scope of work and equipment needed;
- During the walkthrough, please explain to our estimator where you need to reach and the scope of work. Our specialist will consider ground loading limits, advise on the most appropriate lift model, check delivery path, and identify hazards.
- After a walkthrough, our Customer Service Representative will send you an estimate for the cost of rental along with an application package for a new account.
- After we receive an approved estimate and Purchase Order, our traffic management team applies for DOT permits, if needed.
- When permits are secured, we reach out to you to schedule your rental for specific time(s) and date(s) according with DOT permits stipulations;
- As project approaches, our Traffic Management team secures parking spots on a roadway to make sure the lift will have enough space for setup.
- On a day of the job, our operator will deliver the machine to the job site, set it up, and will be ready to lift your crew on a scheduled time.
- Our traffic management team will organize all barricades, cone out the work zone, and will be directing pedestrian and vehicle traffic during the day.
- All you need to do is bring your work crew to the job site! They need to have a hard hat and a harness. We will do the rest. It’s that simple with the Professional Height Access Services!
JLG and Genie self-propelled lifts became so common and widely used that it’s hard to imagine that there can be any other option. Well, indeed, until recently, they were the only option for height access. These simple hard working machines provide basic reach and are quite easy to operate after short training. Still, operating of a 60’ or 80’ JLG or Genie self-propelled lift requires certain training, skills and OSHA certification. On the other hand, when it comes to working at extreme heights and use of the top of the line high performance truck mounted lifts or spider lifts – basic skills are not enough. SAFETY – doesn’t have a price tag. You want to rely on a professional who is a specialist in this type of equipment.
