Delivery & Shipping Policy

We aim to deliver lifting equipment and accessories quickly, safely, and reliably, helping keep your projects and operations running without delay.

All orders are dispatched using trusted courier partners or our own specialist delivery fleet, ensuring goods arrive securely and fully traceable.

UK Delivery

Express Next Working Day Delivery

Most orders are shipped using a Next Working Day Courier Service.

Delivery window:
08:00 – 17:00 (next working day after dispatch)

Delivery costs are calculated automatically at checkout based on order weight, size and delivery location.

London & Home Counties Delivery

For customers located in London and the Home Counties, we regularly carry out deliveries using our own company delivery vehicles. This allows us to provide a more flexible and reliable service for large, heavy, or project-critical lifting equipment.

Our dedicated delivery fleet includes:

• 2 × 12 Tonne Rigid Lorries with Front Mounted HIAB cranes for safe on-site unloading

• 2 × 3.5 Tonne Dropside Flatbed Vans with Tail Lifts for palletised goods and heavier equipment

• 5 × Transit Vans for rapid deliveries of smaller lifting equipment and accessories

Our 12-tonne rigid HIAB vehicles are capable of carrying loads up to 6 tonnes, making them ideal for transporting larger lifting equipment such as:

• Lifting beams

• Chain hoists

• Large slings and assemblies

• Heavy shackles and lifting accessories

• Palletised lifting equipment

HIAB-equipped vehicles allow us to safely unload equipment on-site where forklifts or lifting equipment may not be available.

For large orders, site deliveries, or project logistics, please contact our team to arrange the most suitable delivery option.
