Altitude Roofing has been hiring cherry pickers across Edinburgh and the Lothians since 2014. Because we own our fleet outright, there's no middleman adding margin to your quote, and we can confirm availability and have equipment on your site within hours rather than days. We hire to commercial contractors, property management firms, tree surgeons and homeowners alike.
Our fleet covers compact mast boom lifts for indoor and restricted-access sites, mid-range articulating booms for urban and light commercial work, large diesel booms for taller building stock, telescopic long-reach booms for high-rise facade work, and van and truck-mounted lifts for rapid deployment on Edinburgh's road network. Every hire includes a pre-delivery inspection, controls briefing, and a named contact throughout.

Most access hire in Edinburgh runs through brokers who don't own the machines, they take your booking, mark up a third-party rate, and you wait on someone else's availability. We own every machine in our fleet outright. That means no margin added to your quote, confirmed availability when you call, and equipment delivered on our own vehicles, often the same day. When a contractor's original supplier drops out, we can frequently confirm fleet availability within a couple of hours.
We supply IPAF-certified operators on request and handle safety compliance on your behalf. Every hire includes a pre-delivery inspection and a full controls, outrigger and emergency-procedure briefing.

Hiring from us is a three-stage process. The machine selection step matters most, getting the right platform for your ground conditions and access width is what keeps the job safe and on programme.
Tell us your working height and site details. We recommend the right platform for your site, factoring in ground conditions and overhead clearances, and respond with a clear, all-in price.
We transport equipment on our own vehicles to your Edinburgh or Lothians site at a time that suits your programme. Same-day delivery available subject to fleet availability. We walk your operator through controls, outrigger setup and emergency procedures.
A named contact is available throughout your hire for technical questions or equipment swaps. We collect at the agreed time, with no minimum rental period on most machines.
Cherry picker hire costs vary by platform size, working height and hire duration. Compact electric mast booms sit at the lower end, large diesel and long-reach booms at the higher end. Weekly rates offer meaningful savings over repeated day hires. All rates are the same on weekends and bank holidays, we don't add surcharges. Delivery and collection within Edinburgh and the Lothians is included in most standard quotes, with IPAF-certified operator hire itemised separately where required.

We cover Edinburgh city centre, Leith, Craigentinny, Sighthill, Broxburn and wider West Lothian, with East Lothian, Midlothian and the Scottish Borders covered on request. Edinburgh's varied built environment, from Georgian tenements to modern business parks, means every delivery needs planning.
Our local knowledge of Edinburgh's permit zones, weight-restricted routes and road closures helps us plan deliveries that arrive on time. We transport on our own vehicles, so there's no waiting on third-party haulage schedules.
