Rent aerial work platforms in Bern – scissor lifts, telescopic & trailer-mounted lifts

For construction, assembly and maintenance work in the federal capital, Luibl offers a certified range of aerial work platforms for hire – with direct delivery by our own low-loader fleet to all Bern districts and the surrounding area. Whether facade work at the Mattenhof, hall assembly in the Buempliz commercial estate or maintenance work on the BERNEXPO grounds: our equipment is available at short notice and meets the requirements of SUVA as well as the relevant Swiss occupational-safety regulations.

Depending on the location, the ground and the required working height, the following platform types are available:

Scissor lifts – electric and diesel

Electric scissor lifts are the first choice for indoor work in halls, commercial buildings and public buildings – locally emission-free, compact and gentle on hall floors. Diesel-powered models handle construction sites, paved outdoor terrain and industrial facilities. Working heights from 6 m to over 18 m, load capacities up to 450 kg. In stock: Genie, Manitou.

Telescopic and articulating boom lifts

Telescopic boom lifts offer a large outreach capacity even in confined spaces – suitable for facade work on historic buildings in Bern's old town, cabling work under bridges or work near railway installations. Articulating boom lifts are used wherever obstacles have to be negotiated. Working heights of up to 43 m available.

Trailer-mounted lifts

For trade businesses and smaller individual measures, towed trailer-mounted lifts are the cost-effective solution. No category C driving licence required, easy to transport and quick to set up. Working heights up to 16 m.
