Spider Lift Hire in Hampshire
Compact, tracked access that gets into places other lifts can’t. Spider lift hire across Hampshire and the South of England, ready when you are.
Spider Lift Hire for Tight, Awkward Access
A spider lift earns its keep where space is tight and the ground is uneven. The narrow tracked base folds down to get through gateways, side passages and doorways, then the outriggers spread to give you a stable, level platform on grass, slopes or soft ground.
Our fleet runs from the compact S13F right up to the 30m S30, so there’s a machine for everything from indoor maintenance to tall tree work and building jobs. Most run on petrol as standard, with battery and lithium options for indoor or low-emission sites.
If you’re not sure which reach you need, give us a call. We’d rather talk it through and send the right lift than have you stuck with too little reach or a machine that won’t fit.
WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN HIRING A SPIDER LIFT
Reach and outreach
Think about both how high and how far out you need to go. Working height gets you up, outreach gets you over hedges, roofs or anything you can’t drive across. Tell us the job and we’ll match the numbers.
Access and ground
Measure your tightest gap, a gateway, an alley or a doorway, and have a look at the ground. Spider lifts handle slopes and soft surfaces well, but the access point usually decides which machine fits.
Indoor or outdoor
Working inside or somewhere fume-sensitive? Ask about our battery and lithium machines. For open outdoor sites, petrol gives you all-day running without a charge.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a licence or ticket to operate a spider lift?
Operating a spider lift safely needs proper training, usually an IPAF ticket for the right category. If you’re not certified, talk to us and we’ll point you in the right direction before your hire.
Can a spider lift be used indoors?
Yes. Our battery and lithium machines are made for indoor and fume-sensitive work, so you can run them inside churches, atriums, warehouses and shopping centres without the exhaust.
How narrow an access can a spider lift get through?
That’s the main reason people hire them. The smaller machines fold down under a metre wide, narrow enough for most gateways and side passages. Send us your tightest measurement and we’ll tell you what fits.
Will the tracks damage a lawn, driveway or floor?
The weight is spread across rubber tracks and outrigger pads, so they’re gentle on most surfaces. For delicate floors or finished ground we can talk through pads and protection before you hire.
Spider lift or cherry picker, which do I need?
A spider lift is best for tight access, soft or uneven ground and tree work. A van cherry picker is quicker for roadside and hard-standing jobs. If you’re weighing it up, take a look at our cherry picker hire or just ask us.
Do you deliver spider lifts across Hampshire?
Yes. We’re based in Romsey and deliver throughout Hampshire and the South of England, including Southampton, Winchester and Portsmouth. Tell us where the job is and we’ll sort delivery and collection.
