Why Opt for a Truck-Mounted Cherry Picker from Cherry Picker Services Tauranga?

Truck-mounted cherry picker advantages: 

  • Versatile & Adaptable: A truck-mounted cherry picker can be driven very close to the work site and the crane arm can be manoeuvred to reach where it is required.
  • Safe: If you are working at heights, forget about using ladders. A cherry picker has a large area that you can work from and are far safer than ladders.
  • Flexible Hire Times: A truck-mounted cherry picker from Cherry Picker Services in Tauranga can be hired for 1-hour to a full day.
  • Trained Professional: A truck-mounted cherry picker hire from Cherry Picker Services includes a highly trained operator. This saves you time and money as the operator knows the equipment and how to set it up and pack it down quickly and safely.

All cherry pickers from Cherry Picker Services in the Bay of Plenty and the Waikato are truck-mounted cherry pickers. A truck-mounted cherry picker has the crane mounted to the back of the truck — no cumbersome trailer required.

This is important to note because truck-mounted cherry pickers are extremely manoeuvrable (compared to trailer-mounted cherry pickers) and can drive right up to the site location.

Truck-mounted cherry pickers are easier to get into position than a trailer-mounted cherry picker and are also more stable as you have the weight of the truck (as well as stabilisers) keeping you grounded.

With trailer-mounted cherry pickers the point where the trailer is connected to the truck is a potential safety hazard as it can be a weak point or can be incorrectly attached — a truck-mounted cherry picker from Cherry Picker Services in Tauranga eliminates this risk.

What Can a Truck-Mounted Cherry Picker Be Used For? 

A truck-mounted cherry picker is an extremely versatile piece of machinery that can be used for a variety of jobs where using a ladder or scaffolding is impractical or potentially dangerous.

We hire out our truck-mounted cherry pickers to complete task such as:

  • Tree reduction & tree removal

When it comes to cherry pickers, scissor lifts and knucklebooms what is the best machine to use? Here is what you need to know.

What is a cherry picker? A cherry picker is a hydraulic crane with a railed platform at the end for raising and lowering people safely. Cherry pickers are commonly used in building construction, remodelling, and maintenance work. Cherry pickers are extremely versatile, can operate in many environments and are safer than scaffolding and far quicker.

Scissor lifts are quiet (electric) and ideal for indoor work. They don't have a movable arm like a cherry picker and can't reach up and over but are good for vertical work. Knucklebooms can work from many workplaces at height. They are able to be driven while working at height and can reach over obstacles.
