A Capable Three-Vehicle Fleet
The right HIAB vehicle for the job
With three HIAB vehicles available, we can match the vehicle and lifting capability to the load, collection point and destination. Our flagship Scania R660 V8 is equipped with a powerful 90tm FASSI crane for demanding lifting and specialist transport work.
Because lifting and transport are handled by one experienced team, there is less coordination for you and a clearer plan from collection through to final positioning.
✓ Vehicle and crane selected around your load
✓ Site access considered before the job
✓ Collection and delivery planned together
✓ Support for commercial and private enquiries

Frequently Asked Questions
HIAB hire questions
What information do you need to quote for HIAB transport?
Please provide a description of the load, approximate weight and dimensions, collection and delivery postcodes, preferred timing, access details and photographs where possible.
Can you lift the load at both collection and delivery?
Our HIAB vehicles are designed to lift as well as transport. Whether lifting is possible at both ends depends on the load, lifting radius, ground conditions and site access, which our team will assess before confirming the job.
Can you transport plant and construction machinery?
Yes. We handle enquiries for excavators, dumpers, rollers, attachments and other machinery. Send us the machine details and locations so we can identify the most suitable vehicle.
Do you move shipping or storage containers?
Yes, subject to the container size, weight, contents and safe access for lifting at both locations. We receive enquiries for empty and loaded containers, including 20-foot units.
How far does your HIAB service travel?
We are based in Ayrshire and cover jobs across Scotland and the wider UK where suitable. Contact us with both postcodes and we can confirm availability.
