Overview
Crane hire across Teesside
We provide crane hire and contract lifting across Teesside, for loads from 20kg to 1,000 tonnes.
Our Darlington yard sits at the western end of the A66, so the whole Tees valley is a short run. Much of the work here is on live process plant, with permits and fixed shutdown windows.
Which areas?
Every TS postcode, the rest of the North East, and the rest of the UK.
Which cranes?
All-terrain mobile cranes for vessels and heavy plant, city cranes and light truck cranes for confined process areas, and our electric pick and carry cranes indoors.
No appointed person?
Book a contract lift. We survey, plan and supervise it, fully insured.
Only need a cost?
Send photos, the weight and the reach and a desktop quote generally follows the same day.

How it works
How a Teesside lift is booked
The details
Load weight and size, the site address, where it lands and photos of the access, with the site’s permit rules if you have them.
The quote
We quote from what you send, and visit first where the ground or the plant layout needs a look.
The plan
On a contract lift our appointed person writes the lift plan and RAMS around the permit and the shutdown, and sends them before the day.
Teesside

What we plan for
Getting there
Cranes reach Teesside on the A66 and A19, with the A174 to Redcar and the coast. Low bridges and weight limits are planned before we quote.
Permit-controlled plant
On process sites we work to inductions, permits and exclusion zones, and fit lifts into shutdown and maintenance windows.
Reclaimed ground
Much of the land along the Tees is reclaimed or former works ground with patchy records. The bearing is checked and mats go down where needed.
Wind off the estuary
Lifts by the river and the coast carry wind limits, so the programme keeps a fallback day.
Questions
Common questions
Can you work on a chemical site?
Yes. We follow the site’s inductions and permits and plan the lift into the shutdown window.
Can you lift on the quayside?
Yes. The lift is planned round vessel movements, the ground bearing and the wind off the North Sea.
How far is your yard?
Our Darlington yard is about 15 miles along the A66, so a Teesside site is a short run for the crane and the team.
Can you move a machine too?
Yes. Synergy Lifting moves machinery as well, so the skates, jacks and crane are planned together.
Why book with us
What every Teesside booking includes
Appointed persons on the team
Our appointed persons write every contract lift plan and visit first when the site needs a look.
Prices the same day
Desktop quotes are back with you on the day we get the details in most cases.
Shutdown work
Vessel, pump and tank changes are planned to the hour of the shutdown.
Road closures
Where the crane needs part of a road or pavement, we apply to the borough council for the area and bring the traffic management.
