What operated hire means - and why it's the only way we hire
Operated hire means the machine never leaves our hands. Our operator arrives, sites the platform, runs the lift and manages the safety of the operation from start to finish. You don't need an IPAF ticket, insurance or training - and you don't take on the risk of running the machine yourself.
No IPAF ticket
Our operator holds the qualification - you never need your own.
No training burden
No insurance or certification for you to arrange or carry.
Safer
Experienced operators manage set-up and every lift.
Faster set-up
On site, positioned and working in minutes, not hours.
Our operators
IPAF qualified and experienced working alongside roofers and builders - they understand the job, not just the machine. They arrive ready to work and keep your programme moving.
Safety & paperwork
Fully insured throughout. Method statements and RAMS are provided on request for every job, so your site paperwork is covered before we arrive.
Do I need a licence to hire a cherry picker?
No. Because we hire operated only, a fully qualified IPAF operator runs the machine for you. You don't need an IPAF ticket, operator training or your own insurance to use one of our platforms — you simply tell us the job and we bring the machine and the person to run it.
