We deliver
certainty
to site managers.
We don't just hire machines. When you're managing tight margins and immovable deadlines, you need a plant partner who understands that downtime is not an option. Telehandler Hire is a working, plant-fitter run hire business operating across the UK and the Republic of Ireland — every machine on the fleet is owned, maintained and dispatched by us or by a vetted partner depot under the same SLA.

Membership #114287. GB & NI hires under CPA Model Conditions.
Membership #2241. ROI hires under IPHA standard conditions.
Every machine carries a current Thorough Examination certificate in the cab.
Every operated hire dispatched with a current ticketed operator.
Built around the manufacturers that build the standard.
From nimble 4 m compacts for tight urban access through to 30 m rotating machines for complex heavy lifting, our fleet is built exclusively around the six industry-leading telehandler manufacturers. Every machine arrives with a current LOLER thorough examination certificate and is maintained to manufacturer standards by our national network of Mobile Plant Fitters.

We don't just broker equipment — we actively manage a vast, nationwide network of highly skilled plant operators. Whether your site requires a CPCS A77 ticket for a major highways project or an NPORS N139 card for a residential development, our recruitment and dispatch team rigorously vets every operator. When you request an operated hire, the professional who turns up on your site is experienced, compliant, and ready to lift safely from minute one.
We are continually expanding our roster of top-tier talent. If you are a ticketed telehandler operator looking for consistent, high-quality site placements across the UK or Ireland, submit your CV and tickets to our recruitment team today.
Long-term placements. Day-rate transparency. CPA & IPHA-compliant hire docs.
Apply nowThree things we won't trade.
These aren't slogans. They're the operating principles a working dispatch desk has to hold to.
We won't dispatch a machine without a current LOLER certificate, and we won't dispatch an operated hire without a vetted ticket. Both come before the rate.
Every machine is owned and maintained by us or a partner depot under the same SLA. No mystery sub-hires.
When you ring, you reach a working dispatch desk staffed by people who know their fleet — not a script.
