Three Es of machine moving – Expertise, Experience, Equipment

As a machine moving specialist, Hird has experience of moving machinery in a large number of industrial sectors.

Our machinery moving teams have completed projects for businesses working in petro-chemicals, aerospace, manufacturing industries and many more.

Machinery moving demands combining the right expertise with the right equipment to get the job done safely and efficiently every time.

For clients who wish to carry out their own on site machine moves we can supply the appropriate machine moving equipment to include mini cranes, pick and carry cranes and powered access machines, such as cherry pickers, personnel lifts and scissor lifts.

Our machine moving team can handle your full project from start to finish, commencing with a free of charge no obligation site survey, followed by risk assessments and method statements, machinery movements, transportation, storage and machinery installation as required.

We can move one machine or manage a large turnkey CDM project.

We ensure the highest standards of health and safety on every machine moving task. All our compact cranes and powered access machines are modern and undergo regular inspections and appropriate servicing. We are also the UK authorised dealer for 3B6 load monitoring systems, which are used on our hire fleet.

Our machine moving personnel are trained to comply with BS7121 Safe Use of Cranes and PUWER, LOLER regulations.

Our dedicated training department can offer training at our depot or on your own site to allow you to carry out your own machine moving project.

Courses include:

    • Mini crane operator
    • A66 compact crane operator
    • Working at height
    • IPAF
    • PASMA
    • CPCS
    • Safety harness
    • Manual handling

and many more to suit your specific requirements.

Contact Hird to find out more about our machine moving and contract lifting service, which includes the supply of pick and carry cranes, spider cranes, mobile cranes and powered access machines for hire and for sale.

Our machine moving service can be accessed at one of our three strategically-placed depots.
The Southern Depot covers London and the South, our Central Depot serves the Midlands and our Northern Depot and head office is in Hull, Yorkshire.

For more information call: 01482 227333. We are ready to discuss how we can meet your needs.
