A lift on site in Melksham, Wiltshire with the clock running needs the right service first time. The wrong crane, equipment or contract lift delays the project before work begins. Tell Coppard the job and the right crane, equipment and service is matched to your site before anything leaves the yard. For crane services near me in Melksham, call 01380 828988.
What Lifting Problems Do You Have?
In Melksham, Wiltshire, lifting projects usually stumble on one of three things: wrong equipment, poor planning, or a supplier missing the services the job calls for.
Ground conditions differ across sites, and access is a recurring challenge, with narrow roads, confined spaces, basements, plant rooms and older buildings needing more than a standard mobile crane. Glass installation, machinery relocation and plant positioning each require their own method.
No talk of access, ground conditions, lift planning or RAMS before booking is a sign the lifting company is wrong for the job. Every project should open with understanding the site to recommend the safest, most efficient solution.

Crane & Lifting Services Across Melksham, Wiltshire
Each site has its own ground conditions, access constraints and lifting challenges. The Melksham area’s ground is mainly the River Avon alluvial floodplain, Oxford Clay and Kellaways beds, and Great Oolite limestone on higher ground. The Avon floodplain brings soft alluvial ground over firmer clay, so soft spots and the water table need checking, while the Great Oolite on higher ground gives a firmer base. Whether it is crane hire, contract lifting, glass lifting, lifting equipment, mechanical lifting, or lift planning and RAMS, you speak to a team with 54 years across Melksham, Chippenham and Devizes, with the right solution recommended before the depot dispatches anything.

Frequently Asked Questions
When should I choose operated crane hire instead of contract lifting?
Choose operated crane hire when you need a crane with a CPCS-certified operator but your own team manages the lift. If you need Coppard to take responsibility for the planning, supervision, lift plan and RAMS, a full contract lift is the better option.
Can you help choose the right crane for my project in Melksham?
Yes. Tell the team what you need to lift, the approximate weight, the lift height and any access restrictions, and the most suitable crane or lifting solution is recommended for your project.
Do you provide lift planning and RAMS with your crane services?
Yes. Lift planning, site-specific RAMS packs, appointed persons and CPCS-certified operators can be provided so the operation complies with LOLER, BS 7121 and CDM requirements.
