WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Fantastic Service – I have had the pleasure of working with Q Crane & Plant Hire for the last 3 and a half years on one of the UK’s largest infrastructure projects, the Mersey Gateway. The service we have received has been fantastic and there are no problems, only solutions from the team. From the initial phone call right through to the delivery and rigging of the crawler crane, they are always very professional. The Service team are the best I’ve ever worked with and having a contact 24/7 is a major benefit when the site is running on that basis. The crawler crane maintenance and service inspections are carried out regularly and the documentation provided is the best I’ve seen.

The operators are all fully trained, very experienced and highly skilled which combined with being reliable, has been a winning combination. Competitive pricing and excellent service makes Q Crane & Plant Hire a major force to be considered across the UK.

Thanks to everyone for all of your help over the years and I look forward to working with you all again on the next project.

Extensive Range – We have a strong relationship with Q Crane & Plant Hire and have worked closely with them due to their extensive range of crawler cranes and excavators that comply with all of the latest safety standards that we require. The support and level of service is excellent and they are on hand to resolve any problems when you need them. We work with the Hire Desk team well and we have found the knowledge and experience useful throughout the hire process.

We have recently worked with Q Crane & Plant Hire on a complex project that required an 80T and 110T crawler crane in West Yorkshire as well an excavator in Wellingborough demonstrating they will support our projects without limitation.
