Lorry-mounted crane & transport hire

Lorry-mounted crane and transport hire

Peter Mitchell & Son can move machinery, steelwork and other equipment to and from site, and load, offload or reposition containers up to 20 ft where access allows. Each job is quoted after checking the load, reach, setup space and ground conditions.

Prototype test logic onlyNo current load chart is connected. Never use a result for a lifting decision.

Load, reach and access

Capacity depends on the crane position and reach

Crane capacity reduces as reach increases. Vehicle position, stabiliser deployment, ground conditions, overhead obstructions and site access must all be checked before booking.

Container work is normally loading, offloading or repositioning on accessible domestic and business sites, rather than a general container-delivery service.

Before booking, Peter Mitchell & Son will confirm whether the work is transport with crane handling or requires a separately planned lifting operation.
