Rent aerial work platforms in Rotterdam – lifting platforms, telescopic handlers & forklifts

Rotterdam is Europe's largest seaport – a hub for petrochemicals, container logistics, heavy-load handling and one of the most active construction sectors in the Netherlands. Luibl Rental hires out work platforms, telescopic handlers and forklifts for projects in Rotterdam and throughout the Randstad: deliverable Europe-wide, with our own low-loader fleet and German-language advice directly from Passau.

As part of a network with over 200 locations, we deliver rental machines via our own low-loader fleet directly to your site or premises in Rotterdam – with no intermediary freight forwarder and with schedulable delivery dates.

For German and Austrian companies operating in Rotterdam, Luibl Rental handles the entire rental process in German: advice, cost estimate, delivery coordination and equipment documentation. Whether your company is based in Munich, Vienna or Zurich – it makes no difference: our rental offering extends across the whole of Europe, and especially to the Rotterdam economic area and the entire Netherlands.

Short-term hire for individual project days as well as multi-month long-term hire – with combined offers when several machines are needed at the same time. Our full-service team answers all questions about equipment selection and delivery dates directly and quickly.

Renting scissor lifts in Rotterdam

For maintenance, assembly and installation work in warehouses, logistics centres and industrial buildings, we offer electric and diesel scissor lifts with working heights from 6 to 35 metres.

The electric version with non-marking tyres is particularly in demand in enclosed production halls in the Botlek industrial area or distribution centres in the Waalhaven.

Load capacities up to 1,000 kg; self-propelled, controllable from the platform.

Renting articulated and telescopic boom lifts

For façade work, bridge and port infrastructure as well as outdoor deployments, articulated boom lifts are the most flexible choice.

The Manitou 280 TJ (27.73 m working height, 350 kg load capacity, 21.45 m lateral outreach) works autonomously without a power connection – predestined for outdoor assembly on the extensive Europoort site or at quayside buildings in the port.

Diesel and hybrid versions up to 52 m working height available.

Large-volume platform lifts for port and industry

The JLG Liftlux 320-30 offers 34 m working height with a load capacity of 1,000 kg and a platform size of 9.60 m × 7.85 m – ideal for teams working simultaneously over a large area: tank inspections in the Pernis refinery area, bridge soffits or hall roof refurbishments in the Maasvlakte.

For mini crane work in confined spaces, the Maeda CC1485 (16.70 m lifting height, 6,000 kg lifting capacity) is available.

On Rotterdam's active construction sites – from port expansions to the booming residential construction in the city area – telescopic handlers are indispensable.

Luibl Rental distinguishes between:

• Fixed telescopic handlers for fast material transport, truck unloading and positioning of structural elements. Lifting heights from 6 to 18 metres; heavy-duty versions up to 27 tonnes lifting capacity for heavy industrial operation in the Pernis-Botlek complex.

• Roto telescopic handlers enable flexible working as a crane, cable crane and stacking device thanks to the rotating upper carriage – without repositioning. We hire out Roto lifts from Manitou and Merlo in 21 m, 25 m, 30 m and up to 35 m lifting height, with load capacities of 4, 5 and 6 tonnes. Thanks to scissor outriggers, they stand securely even on uneven ground or on quay slabs.

Particularly in demand for Rotterdam projects: Manitou Roto handlers with long lateral outreach for work between ship and quay.

All telescopic handlers come from leading quality brands such as Manitou, Merlo and Magni and are CE-compliant for commercial use in the Netherlands (EN 1459).

The Port of Rotterdam and the adjacent industrial zones are among the largest logistics hubs in Europe. Luibl Rental hires out forklifts for all requirements:

• Diesel forklifts: For outdoor deployments on port grounds, container terminals and open-air storage; load capacity up to 16,000 kg

• Electric forklifts: Locally emission-free for indoor use – ideal for distribution centres in Botlek or Waalhaven

• Rough-terrain forklifts: Rugged tyres, high ground clearance for construction sites, quay areas and unpaved sites

• Heavy-duty forklifts: Up to 16 tonnes lifting capacity for heavy industrial applications and heavy machine components

All aerial work platforms and telescopic handlers bear the CE mark and comply with the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC as well as NEN-EN 280 (aerial work platforms) and EN 1459 (telescopic handlers) in the version applicable to the Netherlands. They therefore meet the basic requirements of the Dutch occupational health and safety act (Arbeidsomstandighedenwet, Arbowet) for commercial use. Declarations of conformity and inspection certificates are available on request upon delivery.

Legal note: Additional requirements may apply to the operation of aerial work platforms in the Netherlands – in particular regarding operator qualifications (VCA/NRM certificate) under Dutch law. Please have the specific operator requirements checked legally before the start of deployment.
