- Determining your required raise and reach is one of the most important steps when deciding which cherry picker is right for your project. If you underestimate the measurements then you may not be able to complete the job, or risk injuring yourself in doing so. On the other hand, if you overestimate it, you could end up paying too much for a bigger machine that you don’t need.Our cherry picker height is measured from the ground and incorporates the height of an average person. Similarly, the reach is calculated using the width of the bucket and the average reach of an adult. If you are taller or shorter than most people, or intend to be working with heavy equipment that cannot be used with a fully-outstretched arm, keep this in mind when identifying your perfect cherry picker from the table above.
The most important thing to consider when choosing an outdoor cherry picker is the ground quality and overhead space. If the earth is going to be boggy or sloped then make sure you choose a model with an outrigger or suitable gradient stability. Overhead cables, branches or other structures may also dictate the type of movement you require from your machine. If you have any concerns, feel free to call us on 01243 530076 for any help or advice.
Do you have enough ventilation indoors to use a diesel vehicle, or will you need an electric one? What is the narrowest gap your cherry picker will need to pass through? Once in position, is there enough space to manoeuvre the vehicle? Filtering your options by fuel type, size and tuning radius will help you find the most appropriate cherry picker for indoor projects.
A full, valid driving license is required to operate heavy machinery, including cherry pickers, weighing up to 3.5 tonnes. Any equipment heavier than this will require additional training. If you only need to rent one of our smaller machines, or already have the appropriate license, then you can read more about our self-hire options here. All our self-hire machines are delivered by an experienced member of staff, who will help you become familiar with the machine.
Yes. If you would prefer your cherry picker to be manned by a professional or, if you do not hold the appropriate license to operate the machine you require, speak to us about the availability of our experienced operators.
