Contract Lift
A contract lift should be considered if you have little or no experience with renting a crane, indeed many contractors will require relevant experience and certification along with method statements, risk assessments and lift plans when hiring a crane for use on site.
Under the terms of a standard CPA contract lift, the crane/equipment, operator and all personnel supplied with the crane, (including the appointed person/crane supervisor) are the responsibility of Adco Crane Hire Ltd.
Adco Crane Hire Ltd will take responsibility for all aspects of the planning and execution of the contract lift and will provide insurance cover.
Crane Hire
Under the terms of a standard CPA crane hire agreement, the crane & the operator are the responsibility of the customer once the crane leaves the public highway in order to access the site (this includes travel on any access roads in the event that the site is not immediately adjacent to the public highway).
The hirers’ appointed person is responsible for planning the lift including all the personnel and equipment involved. The hirer must also under CPA model conditions provide insurance cover for the following:
Loss or damage to our plant & equipment whilst on site and under the hirers’ control.
Loss of, or damage to the goods being lifted.
Continuing hire charges whilst the plant/equipment is unable to work as a result of loss or damage.
Injury to operator and other personnel whilst under the supervision and control of the customer, also injury to third parties including damage to their property as a result of the lifting operation.
