Hiab Hooklifts and Skiploaders from SiteMovements UK deliver fast, reliable container transport and skip handling across the UK. Our fleet is built for industries that demand strength, speed, and safety — from waste and demolition to plant hire and utilities.
This page explores the benefits of hooklifts and skiploaders, including key features, vehicle specs, and why SiteMovements is the trusted name for Hiab-powered transport services.
WHAT ARE HOOKLIFTS & SKIPLOADERS?
Hooklifts and skiploaders are hydraulic systems mounted on rigid trucks, used to load, move, and unload skips or containers without the need for cranes. With the help of a hydraulic arm, operators can roll containers onto the vehicle bed, lock them in place, and transport them with ease.
Hiab’s MULTILIFT range leads the market for durability and innovation. Whether it’s delivering cabins, lifting skips, or shifting site materials, Hiab Hooklifts and Skiploaders provide unbeatable control, safety, and performance.
