About our Glasgow service

Anyone living or working in Glasgow will know the place well: Glasgow is Scotland's largest city on the River Clyde, with a shipbuilding and trading heritage, a major retail, cultural and university economy and districts dominated by sandstone tenements. We cover all of it, including Bridgeton to Cathcart.

Heavy equipment moving in Glasgow should be simple. Send us a few details about the job, and you will get a fixed price and our next available dates.

Businesses in Glasgow buying second-hand machines often need collections from auctions and dealers elsewhere in Scotland, planned around tight collection windows.

Where a Glasgow site has no forklift or loading bay, a HIAB lorry can usually lift the machine straight on or off the vehicle.

Questions about heavy equipment moving in Glasgow

How much does heavy equipment moving cost in Glasgow?

Prices vary with the job. Your price come down to the size of the job and access and timing, so the quickest way to an exact figure is to send your details. Typical prices are in the facts box at the top of this page and in our cost guide.

What do you need from me to quote in Glasgow?

Just fill in the form on this page with your Glasgow postcode, a few details of what you need and when you need it. Photos help but are optional.

Do you work in Bridgeton and other parts of Glasgow?

Yes, we do. Our service covers all of Glasgow, including Bridgeton, Cathcart, West End, Partick, Hillhead and Dennistoun, plus nearby Paisley, East Kilbride, Stirling and Livingston.

Will the floor take the weight?

It needs checking. Concrete ground-floor slabs in industrial units usually cope, but suspended floors, mezzanines, ramps, drain covers and older buildings can be a problem. We look at the route on the survey, spread loads with steel plates or timber where needed, and recommend a structural engineer's check if there is any doubt.
