Our HIAB low loader combines a low-loading trailer with an on-board crane — for plant, machinery and equipment that is too tall or too heavy for a standard flat trailer but still needs crane-assisted loading and offloading at both ends.
Low loader hire is the solution when height clearance under bridges, overpasses and power lines is the critical constraint. By loading plant and machinery onto a low-loading trailer, the combined height of vehicle and load is reduced — enabling movement of tall equipment that cannot legally or practically travel on a standard flat trailer. Our HIAB low loaders add crane capability for loading and offloading without any additional lifting equipment on site.
Our HIAB low loader hire is frequently used for large compressors, generators, agricultural and construction plant, transformer units and heavy industrial equipment. Where loads are exceptionally wide or heavy, we can arrange abnormal load permits and police escort if required. Our team handles the route planning, permits and logistics so that you receive a complete, compliant low loader transport service.
Low-loading trailer reduces overall height — enabling legal movement of tall plant under bridge and power line restrictions.
Heavy plant and machinery carried — payload confirmed per job to suit the trailer and axle configuration.
On-board crane for loading and offloading — no site crane required at either end of the journey.
Abnormal load permits arranged where required — wide loads, height restrictions, police escort if needed.
Full route survey for sensitive loads — bridge heights, weight limits and restricted roads all checked.
Nationwide throughout the UK — one-off and contract movements covered.
