Frequently asked questions

What type of equipment do you hire?

Skyreach is one of Australia's few specialists in access equipment hire. Our hire fleet includes EWPs; scissor, boom and man lifts; telehandlers; crawlers; hybrid units; lighting towers; specialised access essentials such as duct lifters and pipe racks; plus a wide range of OEM attachments.

Do I need an account to hire from Skyreach?

Yes, we hire access equipment to account customers only – you can find our account application form in the Resources menu.

Can I extend my hire period?

Yes, we can extend your hire if your project is delayed or if site conditions change. Simply contact your local branch and let our team know.

What happens if there is a problem with the equipment on site?

Each branch has a dedicated Field Service Team with fully equipped service vehicles (including mine spec vehicles in relevant areas). We're on call 24/7 to support you and keep your project rolling, including providing emergency service or replacement machines if necessary.

Do you offer wet hire?

No, all our equipment is provided as dry hire without an operator.

Do I need a license to operate the equipment?

Many types of height access equipment require a license for safe, compliant operation. Licensing requirements can vary depending on the category of machine you hire – these are listed under each hire machine, however we also recommend checking with the EWPA for detailed information.
