    Contract Lift Hire

    CPA contract lift hire is simple & straightforward with ALTIDA

    It is important to remember that working with cranes can be very dangerous, especially if there are inexperienced customers involved. This not only involves the process of crane hire but also the responsibilities that come with it. A CPA Contract Lift takes care of all your lifting needs.

    A CPA Contract Lift Hire ensures that the mobile crane, equipment, operator and all personnel of the crane are the responsibility of the crane owner, rather than the customer, meaning you are insured. The crane owner is then responsible for all aspects of the lift including the planning and execution of the job, such as which crane will do the job and where and how to rig it.
