Vacuum glass lifters, push around manlifts, material lifts, electric chain hoists and pallet jacks — the specialist gear the big yards don't keep on the shelf. Delivered across Sydney, and you talk to someone who has spent 18 years in this industry, not a call centre.
Five specialist ranges of lightweight access and lifting equipment — glass installation, working at height, material handling and rigging — serviced, tested and delivered from our Western Sydney yard.
Glassboy vacuum lifters for safe, precise glass panel installation — dual vacuum systems with wireless remote control.
Genie AWP and Haulotte Quickup single-person lifts — compact, quiet and perfect for indoor maintenance and installs.
Genie SLC, SLA & GL plus Toro counterweight lifts for ducting, steel, and heavy components — up to 8m lift height.
CM Lodestar, Pacific, Hitachi and Liftket electric chain hoists — 150kg to 6.3 tonne, single phase or three phase, all overload protected and built to AS1418.2.
Electric pallet trucks — HELI and JIALIFT walk-behind models in 550mm and 685mm fork widths, a stand-on ride-on for long runs, plus JIALIFT rough terrain jacks for outside work.
First time hiring lifting gear? It takes one phone call.
What you're lifting and roughly what it weighs, how high it has to go, the site suburb and your dates. Call, text, WhatsApp or send the form — whatever suits.
You speak to someone with 18 years in access and lifting hire. If a smaller, cheaper machine will do your job, we'll say so — we'd rather you come back than oversell you once.
Delivered to your site anywhere in Sydney, and we'll walk you through the controls if you haven't run one before. We pick it up when the job's done.
Our most requested machines. Don't see what you need? Call us — we'll sort you out.
We're tradies serving tradies — no call centres, no run-around.
We deliver and pick up across Sydney and NSW, so your crew keeps working.
Every machine is serviced, tested and inspected before it reaches your site.
Not sure which lift you need? Call us — we'll match the right machine to the job.
Quick quotes and fast availability when the job can't wait.
Most of our hires go direct to the trade — not through a middleman.
Short, to-the-point videos on the questions we get asked every day — which machine fits, what the rules are, and what a hire really costs. Everything drawn to scale, with real numbers.
Costs, licences, delivery areas and how hire actually works.
We hire lightweight access and lifting equipment across five categories: vacuum glass lifters to 600kg, push around manlifts to 12.3m platform height, material lifts to 454kg, electric chain hoists from 150kg to 6.3 tonne, and electric pallet jacks to 3000kg, including rough terrain models. Brands include Genie, Haulotte, Toro, Glassboy, HELI, JIALIFT, CM Lodestar, Pacific, Hitachi and Liftket.
Hire rates depend on the machine and how long you need it — weekly rates work out a lot cheaper per day than a one-day hire, and we quote delivery separately based on your suburb. Call 0450 133 133 or email sales@tradieshire.com.au with the job and we'll give you a price on the spot.
Yes — we deliver and pick up right across Sydney, including Parramatta, Blacktown, Penrith, Liverpool, Bankstown, the Hills District, the Inner West, North Sydney, the Northern Beaches and the Sutherland Shire, plus Newcastle, the Central Coast and Wollongong. We're based in Schofields in western Sydney. Same-day and next-day delivery is usually available — call 0450 133 133 to check.
Usually, yes. We're a small, hands-on outfit — you get a person on the phone, not a call queue. If we've got the machine on the ground and the timing works, we'll get it to you same day or first thing next morning. Call early and tell us the site address and access.
All three. Daily, weekly and monthly hire are all available, and long-term or project-length hire is priced separately — tell us how long the job runs and we'll quote it properly rather than just stacking up day rates.
In most cases, no — but training is not optional. A High Risk Work Licence (class WP) is only required for boom-type elevating work platforms with a boom length of 11m or more. Our push around manlifts are vertical mast lifts, not boom lifts, so no HRWL applies at any of our platform heights, and material lifts, chain hoists and walk-behind pallet jacks don't need one either. What the law does require is that the operator is trained and competent. For manlifts, the usual way to demonstrate that is an EWPA Yellow Card — it isn't a licence, but most commercial sites in Sydney will ask to see one before they let you on a machine. Yellow Cards are issued per category, and the one that covers our manlifts is Vertical Lift (VL) — a scissor lift card won't necessarily do. Check your site's rules and SafeWork NSW guidance before you start.
Yes. Every machine is serviced, function-tested and checked before it leaves the yard, and lifting gear is inspected in line with the manufacturer's requirements. If anything plays up on site, ring us — we'd rather swap a machine than have you lose a day.
Both. Plenty of our hires go to builders, glaziers, electricians, HVAC and shopfitting crews, but we're happy to hire to owner-builders and DIY jobs too, as long as you can handle the gear safely and we can get it delivered.
All of it. Our yard is in Schofields, NSW 2762, which puts us close to Blacktown, Marsden Park, Rouse Hill, Riverstone, Quakers Hill and the Hills District, and we run deliveries right across greater Sydney and out to Newcastle, the Central Coast and Wollongong.
Call 0450 133 133 or email sales@tradieshire.com.au. Tell us what you're lifting, how high, the site address and the dates — that's usually enough for us to confirm the right machine and a price.
Yes — our yard is in Schofields, NSW 2762, in Sydney's north-west. That puts us minutes from Marsden Park, Riverstone, Rouse Hill, Box Hill, Blacktown, Quakers Hill, Norwest and Castle Hill, and a short run down the M7 to Eastern Creek, Erskine Park, Wetherill Park and Parramatta. We deliver right across Sydney and regional NSW.
Yes. Electric pallet jacks, ride-on and rough terrain pallet trucks, electric chain hoists and material lifts go out regularly to warehouses, distribution centres, workshops and factories in Sydney's industrial hubs — Eastern Creek, Erskine Park, Minchinbury, Huntingwood, Wetherill Park, Smithfield, Silverwater, Moorebank, Prestons, Ingleburn and Port Botany among them.
