How Are Generators & Compressors Loaded?
HIAB Crane Loading
Suitable where the unit can be safely lifted using appropriate lifting points and a vehicle-mounted crane.
Forklift or Telehandler
Suitable where lifting equipment is available on site to safely load or unload the unit.
Towing
Suitable for roadworthy trailer-mounted generators and compressors where towing is the most practical option.
Loading Ramps
Suitable for self-propelled or wheeled equipment that can be safely loaded using ramps and a winch where required.
Important note: The final loading method must be assessed before booking. HIAB loading is not guaranteed for every unit or location.
