Many industries in Sheffield benefit from cherry picker hire, as they offer safe, flexible access to height, without the cost or setup time of scaffolding, including:
Cherry pickers must meet strict compliance standards so you can be confident your team is working safely on site. These rules cover how the machines are inspected, maintained, operated, and documented. They include:
All cherry pickers must be inspected under Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations at least twice a year to confirm they’re safe to use.
Under the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations, cherry pickers must be properly maintained, safe to operate and used only by trained or competent operators.
Anyone operating a cherry picker should have an International Powered Access Federation licence, so the operator understands safe movement and how to use the machine correctly.
Basic safety checks should be carried out on your cherry picker, including control and emergency stop buttons, harness points, fluid leaks, and platform and boom condition.
Every cherry picker has a safe working load. Exceeding this limit can overload the boom and increase the risk of tipping. Operators should stay within these limits to keep the vehicle steady and the boom performing as intended.
Operators must make sure the ground is level and able to support the machine’s weight, including the use of spreader plates, outriggers, and stable surfaces.
Before you use a cherry picker, check for overhead hazards like power lines, branches, beams or signs – anything that could put your team or the general public at risk.
Got questions? We’ve got the answers! Here’s everything you need to know about cherry picker hire in Sheffield. If you still need help, just give us a call.
Electric cherry pickers are suited to indoor work, warehouses, retail fit-outs, and any low-emission space where noise and fumes are an issue. They’re compact, quiet, and ideal for smooth floors and tight access points.
Diesel models are built for outdoor projects where you need more height, more outreach, and the ability to handle uneven or rough ground – such as construction sites, roofing, tree work, or large façade jobs.
Yes, you can hire a cherry picker with a fully trained operator. This is ideal if you’re carrying out a short, technical, or high-level task and want someone on site who knows the equipment inside out.
Our operators handle positioning, safe setup, and all lift controls, so you can focus on the job itself, whether that’s repairs, lighting installs, tree work, signage, or inspections.
Just share your location, timeframe, and job details, and we’ll schedule an operator who arrives ready to work.
Most commercial sites expect operators to hold recognised access training (such as an IPAF). If you need support, we can advise on the right course or explain what’s required for your job.
Alternatively, you can hire one of our qualified operators as part of your cherry picker hire for your peace of mind.

Yes, we offer a full range of electric cherry pickers designed for indoor tasks, tight access areas, and any environment where low noise and zero emissions matter (such as warehouses, retail units, schools, hospitals, and commercial fit-outs).
Tell us about your project, and we’ll recommend the unit that matches your height, reach, and floor conditions.
To choose the right cherry picker for your job, just share your working height, outreach needs, access points, and surface type. For example, compact electric scissor lifts are best for indoor maintenance and facilities work, and larger diesel boom lifts are best for outdoor construction, roofing, and tree work. Once you’re happy, we’ll arrange delivery at a time that works for your schedule.
The different types of cherry pickers include:
A cherry picker (technically an articulated boom) is designed for precise, “up-and-over” positioning around obstacles. A boom lift is the broader category, but usually refers to telescopic booms, which provide maximum vertical reach and straight-line access.
Articulated and telescopic booms are built for different access challenges.
Articulated models are best when you need to work around obstacles, ideal for jobs like building repairs in tight courtyards, M&E work above machinery, or accessing roofs where direct reach isn’t possible. Telescopic booms are the better choice when you need maximum horizontal reach in a straight line, such as cladding installs, large façade work, high signage, or tree trimming at a distance.
We’ll help you choose the model that gives you the safest, most efficient reach for your site layout.
Larger diesel models are built for outdoor sites, uneven ground, gravel, and rough terrain, while electric units are designed for smooth indoor floors, warehouse slabs, and tight access areas.
If you’re working on mixed surfaces or need to reach over obstacles, we can recommend the best articulated or telescopic option for that setup. Tell us about your ground conditions, and we’ll point you to the machine that will perform safely and reliably on your site.
We have a range of cherry pickers that reach varying heights. For example, the Hinowa Lightlift 26.14 reaches 25m in height, whereas our Nissan Cabstar reaches up to 32m.
The average cost of hiring a cherry picker varies depending on working height, power type, hire length, and delivery location. However, on average, they can cost anywhere between £130 and £600 a day.
