Hiab hire across Cambridge
A Hiab is a lorry with its own crane, also called a crane lorry. Our driver lifts the load onto the lorry, brings it to your site and sets it down within reach of the crane, so you need no forklift or crane at either end.
From building sites and science parks to back gardens in the villages, tell us what needs moving, its size and weight, and the pick-up and drop-off postcodes. We will confirm the right lorry and the price before anything is booked.
What our Hiab lorries move
- Cabins and containers: portable site cabins, offices and storage containers, lifted on and off the lorry.
- Building materials: bricks, timber, steel beams and roofing supplies, set down where you need them on site.
- Plant and machinery: machines and equipment loaded, delivered and lifted into place.
- Generators: delivered to building sites and events.
- Something else: send us its size and weight and we will tell you straight away whether a Hiab is right. See Hiab Hire
