Lift smarter, not harder

Our Christchurch based Smartlift lifting crane is lightweight, smaller HIAB and offers more stability than bulky HIAB crane trucks. We reach spaces that big cranes can’t, while still being strong and stable enough to lift safely.

Our HIAB lifting machine comprises of a custom built crane modified onto a 4wd Toyota Hilux that is fully compliant and engineered by a local Christchurch Canterbury engineer. We can lift up to 2,550kgs at a 1.55m reach, and lift objects up to 500kg as far as 6.8m away! Our 4x4 (4WD) HIAB is also fitted with four stabiliser legs for added stability and safety on uneven terrain.

SmartLift Cranes offers you a safe, secure and cost-effective HIAB lifting experience. We also provide a 6m double axle trailer, and 8x4m double axle trailer to help transport your lifted objects to their new locations.

Smartlift covers off Christchurch and Canterbury areas with our unique custom HIAB.
