Straight Boom Lifts Rentals

Straight Boom Lifts are often called or referred to as cherry pickers. These lifts offer greater horizontal reach than other types of aerial boom lifts.  Most of these lifts can rotate 360 degrees for easier positioning.  The boom can be extended, raised or lowered from vertical to below horizontal.  Even with the boom fully extended the lift can be maneuvered for precise operator placement.

The applications for these lifts are almost limitless, from painting, building and bridge inspection, aircraft inspection, tower inspection.  Most of these lifts have a 500lb unrestricted platform capacity and a few models offer a restricted platform capacity of 1000lbs.

These lifts are available in gas, diesel, propane, and electric.  The rough terrain models allow you to traverse difficult jobsite terrain. The electric models are best suited for indoor use but will work well outdoors provided the lift is operated on smooth hard surfaces such as concrete or asphalt.

Many of these lifts are equipped with a jib that allows for precise platform placement for increased job productivity and greater safety.

Expert Advice

It’s hard to believe with the weather still plunging in many parts of the United States, but spring is on the way and for many trees – it’s almost time to begin pruning.  The best time to prune a tree is late winter, when a tree is still dormant. Trees get pruned for cosmetic and safety reasons. Depending on exactly what you are looking to do to your trees, you may consider hiring experts for the job.  A licensed arborist is experienced at removing full sized limbs safely and correctly. If you’re doing it yourself, and you’re not an experienced tree climber, or if the tree is extremely large – the first thing to do is rent a lift.  A 30’ lift that is towed behind a truck or a self propelled boom lift with heights from 40-60 feet should do the job getting you to the top of...

  Not a problem. You can use an electric man lift or an electric scissor lift – depending on your needs. An electric man lift is portable and compact. You won’t have a problem getting it through a standard doorway and its got a small footprint. You can also use an electric scissor lift for indoor work. It’s a bigger piece of equipment but you’ll have the ability to fit more than one person and even some decorations because the scissor lift gives you a larger platform or work area. Check with your local Volvo Rents expert at any one of our national locations. Bring the measurements of the facility’s doorways and let them know what height you need to reach. They can help you decide what lift can best meet your needs. Then go ahead – deck those halls! Read More
