How do I get a quote in St Helens?

Simply use the quote form with your postcode, a short description of the job and any timing needs. Photos help but are optional.

How do you move machines without a crane?

Most moves inside buildings use machine skates and toe jacks, or hydraulic gantries where the machine needs lifting. The machine is jacked up evenly, set on skates and rolled along a planned route, then jacked down in its new position. This is often the safest method for getting through standard doorways and across finished floors.

Before you book: a quick St Helens checklist

  • Ask for a written method statement and, for any lift, a lift plan
  • Confirm the mover's insurance cover limits against the value of the machine
  • Mark the machine's new position and make sure services are ready there
  • Find the make, model, weight and dimensions of each machine, ideally from the manual or nameplate
  • Identify the manufacturer's approved lifting and jacking points
