About HIAB Transport — Independent UK HIAB Hire Specialists
Independent UK HIAB hire and haulage specialists, based in Manchester. Over 20 years of experience, a comprehensive fleet and a team you can trust.
Established UK HIAB Transport Specialists
We are an independent UK HIAB hire and transport company, operating from our secure 7.5-acre facility in Miles Platting, Manchester.
Founded over 20 years ago, we have grown from a local Manchester haulage business into a nationally recognised HIAB hire specialist. Today our fleet covers everything from compact city-centre lifts to complex multi-vehicle operations across the UK.
We work with construction companies, infrastructure contractors, event organisers, local authorities and private clients — including private individuals who need a one-off lift or delivery. Whatever your requirement, we can help.
