Can a road plate lifter be used with an excavator?
Yes, as long as the excavator is set up and approved for lifting, with a rated lifting point. Check your site rules for lifting with earthmoving equipment.
Does the plate need a hole or lug?
It depends on the lifter design. Some grip the plate edge and others use a lifting hole, so tell our team about your plates.
How long can I hire it for?
Daily, weekly or long-term hire. Tell us your dates when you request a Quote and we will price the period that suits the job.
Does it come inspected and certified?
Yes. Every item is inspected and tagged by our team before it leaves the yard, and the current certificate goes with it.
Can you deliver to site?
We deliver nationwide from our branches in South Australia and the Northern Territory (Regency Park, Whyalla and Darwin), or you can collect from your nearest branch.
Not sure which size or type you need?
Send us the load, the lift and the site conditions. Our team will recommend the right equipment and include it in your Quote.
