Telescopic Handler Hire in Godstone, Surrey
A telescopic handler reaches further and lifts heavier loads than a standard telehandler. Godstone stocks a range for roofing, scaffolding supply and groundwork. Delivered checked and ready for your Surrey site this week.
Telescopic handler hire suits jobs needing extra reach or a heavier load than a standard telehandler carries. Our Godstone depot matches a machine to your site. Call to check lift height and load figures.
When You Need Extra Reach
A roof delivery two or three storeys up often needs more reach than a standard telehandler gives. A telescopic handler extends further out and higher up.
Scaffolding supply jobs also benefit from the extra reach, moving boards and frames up to height without repositioning the machine each time.
Tell the depot the height and distance you need to reach. We will confirm whether a telescopic handler or a smaller telehandler suits the job better. Describe both the height and the distance out from the machine, since a telescopic handler extends in both directions and the combination of the two affects which model is suitable. Call with both figures ready, and the depot will confirm a model before your delivery slot is arranged for the week.
Our Telescopic Handler Range
Godstone stocks telescopic handlers across several reach and load sizes, for roofing, scaffolding and general site lifts. See every hire service from this depot on our Godstone Forklift Rental Service page. Full specs for each model, including maximum reach and safe working load, are listed on our Telescopic Handlers collection. Check these figures against your job before booking.
Call 01883 743322 and tell us the reach and load you need. We will confirm a model and a delivery slot for your Surrey site. We can also arrange delivery straight to a scaffolding contractor on your behalf, if that makes coordinating the job easier for you. Call with your reach and load figures ready, and we will confirm a model and a delivery slot on the same call.
Telescopic Handler Hire for Godstone and M25 Sites
Sites close to the M25 corridor often have good hard standing for a larger telescopic handler, with room to extend the boom fully without obstruction.
Older plots nearer Godstone village can be tighter, so we check yard space before confirming a larger machine will fit and work safely there.
Tell us your site layout and any overhead obstructions, such as power lines or trees, before booking a longer reach machine. Power lines and mature trees are the most common obstructions we check for before confirming a longer reach machine for a site. We supply telescopic handlers across the whole Godstone area, not only the towns named here, so call even if your site sits elsewhere nearby.
What's Included With Every Telescopic Handler
Every machine arrives with a safe working load chart for its full reach range, a maintenance record and a short walk-round before handover.
Forks, a jib or a bucket can be added depending on the job. Fuel is provided full, and returned full, with no charge for normal wear.
Need a longer reach partway through the job? Call 01883 743322 and we will discuss swapping to a bigger machine for the rest of your hire. Our team also records the machine’s maximum safe reach at different load weights, so your operator always has the correct figures to hand on site. Call ahead if your reach needs change partway through a longer hire, and we will discuss swapping to a different model.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is a telescopic handler different from a telehandler?
A telescopic handler reaches further and lifts heavier loads than a standard telehandler. Both extend outward, but the telescopic handler range gives more reach at height, which suits roofing and scaffolding supply work better than shorter machines. For most roofing and scaffolding jobs, the telescopic handler range is the better starting point, with a standard telehandler kept for shorter reach tasks. Call with both figures ready, and the depot will confirm which range actually suits your job before you book either machine.
Can a telescopic handler reach a third storey roof?
Many of our models reach well above two storeys, but the exact height depends on the machine and the load weight being lifted. Tell the depot the height and the load, and we will confirm a model that reaches your roof safely. Tell the depot the exact storey count and any scaffolding already in place, since this affects the angle the machine needs to work at.
Do you deliver to sites along the M25 near Godstone?
Yes, this is one of our most regular delivery routes. Delivery is quoted with your hire price, so the total cost is clear before booking. Call with your postcode and we will confirm a delivery slot for your machine. This route runs through our depot regularly, so availability along the M25 corridor is usually good at short notice. Delivery further out towards the edge of our Surrey coverage may add a short lead time, so call early for tight dates.
Can I hire attachments with a telescopic handler?
Yes. Forks, buckets and jibs can all be hired alongside the machine and swapped during the hire if the job changes. Tell the depot the full job when you book, so the right attachments travel out on day one. Swapping attachments mid hire is straightforward, since our depot keeps spare forks, buckets and jibs in stock for exactly this situation. Call with your exact dates to hold a delivery slot, since popular weeks can book up a little in advance of the work.
What UK rules cover telescopic handler lifting work?
The Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 set out duties for lifting equipment, including telescopic handlers used to lift loads at height. Coppard checks and records every machine before it leaves our yard, so the equipment side is covered before hire. The regulations also call for regular thorough examination of lifting equipment, which Coppard arranges as part of its own fleet maintenance. This sits alongside the depot’s own maintenance records for each machine, so there is a full history on file if a site ever asks to see it.
