Ellis Crane Hire provides professional and reliable operated crane hire for lifting requirements of all sizes and complexities. With lifting capacities ranging from 2 to 120 tonnes, our extensive fleet enables us to provide a suitable solution for everything from restricted-access lifts to larger and more demanding projects.

Our fleet includes all-terrain cranes, city cranes, mini cranes and truck mounted cranes, giving us the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of site conditions, access requirements and lifting challenges. Our experienced team can help identify the most suitable crane for your project, taking into consideration the load, required reach, available working space and ground conditions.

All of our cranes are operated by experienced CPCS-qualified personnel, providing a safe, professional and dependable crane hire service from arrival on site through to completion of the lift. If your organisation does not have expertise in lifting operations a full CPA Contract Lift service is available.

All Terrain Cranes

All Terrain Cranes

Designed to perform across a variety of site and ground conditions, our all-terrain cranes combine excellent mobility with powerful lifting capabilities. Their all-wheel drive and steering capabilities provide enhanced manoeuvrability across uneven and challenging terrain, making them a versatile solution for sites where access, ground conditions and lifting requirements demand greater flexibility.
City Cranes

City Cranes

Compact and easy to manoeuvre. Designed for city centre building work, city cranes suit sites with restricted access and difficult terrain. Built without a front cab for driving on the road, these cranes can store the jib in a lower position, reducing the overall height of the crane to accommodate city restrictions.
Mini Cranes

Mini Cranes

With their compact footprint and minimal ground impact, our mini cranes provide a versatile lifting solution for confined spaces, restricted-access sites and areas where larger cranes may be unsuitable. Their compact design offers excellent manoeuvrability without compromising on lifting capability, while selected models can also lift below ground level, making them well suited to foundation, basement and other below-ground works.
Truck Mounted Cranes

Truck Mounted Cranes

Mounted on a compact truck chassis, our truck mounted cranes combine impressive lifting height and reach with excellent manoeuvrability and a relatively small setup footprint. Their versatile design makes them particularly suited to projects where access or working space is restricted, providing an efficient lifting solution without the space requirements of larger mobile cranes.

Outrigger Mats

Spread the load to reduce floor compression and create a stable base for lifting. Made from Steel, extruded aluminium (AliMats®) and Polyethylene, these durable mats are designed for easy placement.

Offering effective support for machinery and vehicles that uses stabilisers or outrigger feet. These mats are used when the load bearing and spreading capacity becomes an issue on a terrain, such as soft ground or sensitive flooring.
