So you know what a cherry picker is and how it works, but what are the advantages of hiring a cherry picker when working at heights?
In this article, we’ll discuss the benefits of hiring a cherry picker over purchasing one (or attempting to work without one, how to ensure you’re hiring the right cherry picker for your needs and how Performance Tower Hire can help.
Advantages of Hiring a Cherry Picker
If you haven’t ever hired a cherry picker before, you might be wondering about how beneficial they are when working at heights. In this section, we’ll go through some of the main advantages our clients enjoy when hiring cherry pickers instead of buying them, and why it’s an option you should consider when working at heights.
You’ll Have the Right Equipment for the Job
One of the most common mistakes we’ve seen people make when buying machinery like cherry pickers is choosing equipment that isn’t suited to the work they need to complete. Contrary to popular opinion, not all cherry pickers are the same and if you bite the bullet and buy one type of cherry picker, who’s to say it will be suitable for work you need to complete in a week, month or year.
Hiring a cherry picker allows the flexibility to choose from different types of cherry pickers without committing to one specific type of machinery, and you’ll get the advice and support of our support team every time you need to hire equipment.
No Licencing
Operating a cherry picker requires you to have completed the right training and have the correct permits to work such equipment. When you hire equipment with an operator – as you can when you choose Performance Tower Hire – you don’t have to worry about that.
Our qualified team members do all the work for you so you can focus your attention where you need to.
Saves Time & Money
Cherry pickers are expensive pieces of equipment. Transporting them means investing time and money, especially if you need an off-site base to store the machinery.
Hiring cherry pickers from businesses like ours means your equipment is on site when you need it, and you don’t have to worry about the excess cost associated with owning your own machinery.
Safety
At Performance Tower Hire, we take safety very seriously. When you hire cherry pickers, you can be 100 percent certain that we will work as safely as possible, according to all site restrictions. We will also do our utmost to protect your staff while on site.
Unfortunately, this is not something everyone can always guarantee when working with their own equipment.
Adaptable
Hiring a cherry picker allows you to choose when you want it on site, and make sure it is suitable to your specific needs for that particular work. This is, as previously mentioned, not something you can do without a fleet of purchased cherry pickers at your disposal.
Efficiency
You may think you can complete your work at heights with the aid of a ladder, as opposed to machinery. And this may be the case. But the fact of the matter is that having a cherry picker hire service (complete with qualified operators) just makes the job more seamless and efficient.
