We also leave the risk assessment and system of work to you – all we do is provide a suitable crane with an appointed person. Our appointed person will work with the rest of your team (following your strict instructions) to ensure everything runs smoothly.

With this type of crane hire in Newcastle, you’ll need to arrange your own insurance cover for loss or damage to plant machinery, goods and operators.

Hired before but don’t feel confident enough to arrange crane hire yourself? No problem – the BJW team can provide a contract lift in Newcastle – taking the stress out of planning,  executing lifts and ensuring they meet BS7121 and LOLER regulations.

A contract lift includes:

  • a certified crane with an operator
  • a method statement and risk assessment
  • a qualified appointed person to plan the lift
  • a qualified signaller
  • a qualified lift supervisor
  • insurance cover for damage to crane and goods lifted
  • legal responsibility for damage or injury

The speedy set-up is thanks to their folding jibs and lattice extensions that don’t require physical installation, meaning you can start working more swiftly with far less hassle than other cranes.
