Hire a Lift

Manage your hire online

Every hire has a fixed end date set when you book, so nothing runs open-ended. We arrange collection, and your hires, invoices and documents are in your account whenever you need them.

  • Fixed end date, no open-ended charges

    You choose your start and end dates when you book and pay for those days up front. Nothing is left running until someone rings to stop it.

  • No ringing round to off-hire

    On delivered hires we arrange collection from your end date automatically. On click and collect hires, you bring the machine back on your end date.

  • Your hire online, any time

    Sign in to see each hire's dates and progress, download invoices, check payments and upload documents such as proof of address or your HiPI certificate.

  • Need longer? Extend it online

    Pick a new end date on your order in My Account, see the price and pay. You can still call us with your order reference.

From booking to collection

  1. Book with fixed dates

    Pick your start and end dates on the machine page and pay online. That is your whole hire, priced up front.

  2. Track it in your account

    Follow the hire from confirmation to delivery, and find your invoices and payments in one place.

  3. Need longer?

    Extend online from your order in My Account before your end date, or call us.

  4. Collection, sorted

    On delivered hires we arrange collection from your end date. Nothing to ring about.
