Lifting services, crane hire, and rental in Godstone, Surrey support projects that need more than equipment alone. Whether you want a crane with an operator, a contract lift, or non-standard equipment on rent, Coppard recommend the right solution for your load, access, and site. For a lifting service near me in Godstone, call the depot.
What Lifting Service Do You Need?
Start with the load. Its weight, dimensions, lifting points, and final position all shape the crane, accessories, and working radius. Access routes, ground conditions, overhead cables, and nearby buildings also have to be considered before equipment is chosen.
Some projects only need operated crane hire; others need a full contract lift with a site survey, lift plan, RAMS, and supervision. Restricted-access work may take a spider or mini crane, while heavier structural lifts may need a mobile, crawler, or rough terrain crane.
Our Lifting Service Range
Coppard lifting services cover structural steel, roof trusses, glazing, plant equipment, modular buildings, machinery, and non-standard construction loads, with mobile, spider, mini, and crawler cranes matched to the site.
Operated hire includes a qualified operator, while a contract lift is fully managed from planning to completion. Spreader beams, lifting chains, strops, vacuum lifters, and glazing equipment can be supplied where required. To view the range, see the lifting equipment collection. This service sits under Crane Service in Godstone.

Frequently Asked Questions: Lifting Service in Godstone, Surrey
Do you carry out a site assessment before the lift?
Yes. A site assessment may be completed before equipment is selected or delivered. Access width, ground conditions, working radius, overhead hazards, and the setup area are reviewed so the correct crane and lifting method can be planned.
What is the difference between operated hire and a contract lift?
Operated hire provides the crane and a qualified operator, while your team stays responsible for planning and supervising the lift. A contract lift places the lift plan, RAMS, crane selection, operator, and supervision with Coppard.
Do your crane operators hold current CPCS cards?
Yes. Operators supplied for crane work hold the appropriate current CPCS qualification for the equipment in use. Relevant inspection and examination records are provided for the crane and lifting equipment where required.
How do I prepare my site before the lifting team arrives in Godstone?
Clear the access route, check the ground conditions, and make sure the landing area is ready for the load. Look out for overhead cables, trees, underground services, and restrictions that could affect crane movement or setup. Site photographs, load details, and the project postcode help identify issues before mobilisation. The Health and Safety Executive sets out guidance on planning lifting operations.
