MOBILE CRANE HIRE & CONTRACT LIFTING IN YORK

Steve Pinter Lifting supplies mobile crane hire with a qualified crane operator for projects across York.

CPA crane hire is normally suitable for contractors and organisations that already possess the competence, personnel, documentation and insurance required to plan and control a lifting operation.

Under CPA crane-hire terms, we supply the crane and operator. The operator works according to the customer’s instructions and lifting plan, while the customer remains responsible for planning, supervising and managing the operation under the agreed hire conditions.

With CPA crane hire, the customer will normally need to provide:

• Site Supervision: retaining full operational control and must provide a qualified Appointed Person to oversee the lifting layout.
• Safety Documentation: responsible for drafting the comprehensive Method Statement and Risk Assessment (RAMS).
• Personnel: you must supply your own qualified Lift Supervisor and Slinger Signaller to manage the ground operations.
• Insurance Cover: you must ensure adequate insurance cover is in place for the goods being lifted and local site liabilities.

If your organisation cannot provide these requirements, ask us about a fully managed contract lift.

A contract lift is designed for customers who need the lifting operation to be planned, coordinated and carried out on their behalf.

Steve Pinter Lifting can manage the project from the initial discussion and site assessment through to the completion of the lift. We review the load, lifting radius, site access, ground conditions and surrounding hazards before selecting an appropriate crane and planning the operation.

Subject to the agreed scope, our contract-lifting service can include:

• An initial project assessment.
• A site survey where required.
• Selection of a suitable crane.
• A detailed lifting plan.
• Project-specific risk assessments and method statements.
• An Appointed Person.
• A qualified crane operator.
• A Lift Supervisor.
• Slinger/Signallers.
• Coordination and supervision of the lifting operation.
• Relevant insurance arrangements under the agreed contract terms.

This service is generally appropriate where the customer does not employ the qualified personnel required to plan and supervise a lift—or would prefer one experienced supplier to manage the complete operation.
