Site Movements UK specialises in providing top-quality crane-mounted lorries built to handle various industries. Our fleet is equipped to deliver the perfect lifting, transporting or managing a project. Our vehicles combine strength and precision to meet every requirement, specifically loader cranes, forestry cranes, and recycling cranes.
Below, we will explore our crane-mounted lorries’ lifting capacities, weight limits, outreach lengths, and other standout features. Our professionals can even help you choose the right option for your needs.
What Are Crane Mounted Lorries?
Crane-mounted lorries combine the practicality of flatbed or rigid lorries with the power of an integrated hydraulic crane. This combination allows for seamless lifting, loading, and unloading directly at the site without additional lifting equipment.
The result? Faster operations and thus reduced costs for the project.
Hiab cranes are developed by their renowned Swedish manufacturer and are celebrated for their innovative engineering. These cranes can manage everything from lightweight loads to multi-tonne cargo due to our range of configurations. Therefore, our vehicles’ mobility and lifting capabilities are the absolute specialist service.
Loader Cranes
Loader cranes are a versatile choice for industries, which boast excellent lifting and transportation capabilities. These cranes are mounted directly onto lorries, which makes them a practical solution for moving materials and equipment. Loader cranes provide the flexibility needed to manage lifting and transport tasks, for example, in construction sites and manufacturing plants.
- Weight Capacity: Loader cranes can carry payloads ranging from 3.5 tonnes up to 40 tonnes. More specifically, this caters to light, medium, and heavy-duty applications.
- Lifting Capacity: With lifting capabilities of up to 12 tonnes or more, loader cranes are perfect for tasks. This is such as moving construction materials, industrial equipment, or heavy machinery.
- Outreach Length: These cranes offer an impressive outreach of over 20 metres. As a result, this enables operators to access confined spaces or work areas with limited access.
- Key Features: Advanced hydraulic systems, stabilisers, and compact designs thus ensure consistent operation. In fact, this is even the case in tight or challenging environments.


Forestry Cranes
Our forestry crane lorries are designed to meet the challenges of timber operations. They are the preferred choice for logging, handling timber harvesting and transportation.
- Weight Capacity: Forestry cranes can manage payloads of up to 25 tonnes, which makes them ideal for transporting logs and other bulky timber products.
- Lifting Capacity: With lifting strengths of up to 10 tonnes, these cranes easily handle large and irregularly shaped loads.
- Outreach Length: Forestry cranes provide quick loading and unloading with a reach of up to 15 metres, even in remote locations.
- Key Features: These cranes are designed for forestry work, equipped with robust grapples, reinforced booms, and high performance hydraulics.
Recycling Cranes
Our recycling crane-mounted lorries are designed to support sustainable operations by streamlining the collection and transportation of recyclable materials. These vehicles are built to handle high volumes of different materials, thus guaranteeing operations remain efficient and environmentally responsible. Recycling cranes are a valuable asset for waste management companies, urban clean-up teams, and recycling centres.
- Weight Capacity: Recycling cranes can support 5 to 30 tonnes of payloads. Above all, this depends on the configuration.
- Lifting Capacity: These cranes provide additional strength by lifting between 8 and 10 tonnes. This will be needed explicitly for handling scrap metal, plastics, and other recyclables.
- Outreach Length: Recycling cranes can easily access large piles of materials or confined spaces. Above all, this features an outreach of up to 18 metres,
- Key Features: These cranes offer precision handling and efficient sorting capabilities. This is due to being fitted with specialised grab buckets, magnetic lifts, and advanced control systems.
