We have recorded 93 auction sales with a price of 148 models by 43 makes in this category, and 266 lots are at auction now. Pick a make, or a model below.

This category covers equipment used to raise people or loads above ground level, including scissor lifts, boom lifts, mobile and tower cranes, overhead cranes, hoists, chain blocks and vehicle mounted platforms. JLG and Genie dominate the scissor and boom lift market with ranges like the JLG 1930ES and 1230ES and the Genie GS1930, while Haulotte offers widely used compact scissor lifts such as the Optimum 8 and Compact 10 and 12 series. Skyjack is strong in both scissor lifts, with the SJ III 3219, and rough terrain scissors like the SJ6832 RT, while Manitou and Magni are known for telehandler style and rotating boom platforms, and Power Tower supplies small lightweight push around units such as the Nano. These machines are bought by construction firms, maintenance contractors and hire companies for tasks such as installation, inspection and access work at height.
