Frequently asked

What types of access platforms are available for rent in Europe?
The European rental market offers a broad range of access platforms. You can typically find scissor lifts for vertical elevation, boom lifts (articulating and telescopic) for wider reach, and truck-mounted platforms for mobile applications. Additionally, smaller push-around vertical masts and spider lifts are available for more confined spaces or sensitive ground conditions. Companies like Boels Rental and Loxam offer extensive fleets covering these types, with specific models varying by country. Always specify your working height and outreach requirements to ensure you rent the most appropriate equipment.
What are the typical rental periods and pricing for access platforms in Europe?
Rental periods in Europe are highly flexible, ranging from a single day to several months or even years. Daily rates are higher, with significant discounts available for weekly or monthly hires. For a standard 12-meter scissor lift, expect daily rates to be around €100-€150, weekly rates €350-€550, and monthly rates €1,000-€1,800, exclusive of VAT and delivery. Larger boom lifts or specialised equipment will command higher prices. Suppliers like Mateco often provide custom quotes for long-term projects.
Are there specific licensing or training requirements for operating access platforms in Europe?
Yes, operating access platforms in Europe generally requires proper training and certification to ensure safety. While specific national regulations can vary, the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) PAL Card is widely recognised across European countries, including Germany, France, and Spain. This certification validates that the operator has been trained to a proficient standard for various machine types. Always check local regulations in the country where you are renting, as some regions might have additional specific requirements or preferred national certifications.
What kind of insurance do I need when renting an access platform in Europe?
When renting an access platform in Europe, you will typically need to ensure adequate insurance coverage. Rental companies generally offer their own insurance options, which can include damage waiver and theft protection, but these often have an excess. It is advisable to also have a comprehensive project-specific or general liability insurance policy that covers potential damages to property or third-party injuries caused by the operation of the equipment. Companies like Collé Rental & Sales often have detailed insurance requirements that should be reviewed prior to rental.
How does delivery and collection of access platforms work in Europe?
Delivery and collection of access platforms are typically arranged directly with the rental provider. Companies like Boels Rental and Loxam operate extensive logistics networks, allowing for delivery to most project sites across their operating countries. The cost of transport is usually an additional charge, calculated based on distance, equipment size, and the time required for loading and unloading. It is crucial to have a suitable access point and clear instructions for the delivery driver at your site to ensure a smooth and timely drop-off and pick-up.
