A directory built around your next Hiab job.

Find the right business for your load

HiabHub is a UK Hiab hire directory connecting people who need lifting and transport with independent operators. Search by area, look through the available profiles and speak directly to a business about your job. You might be arranging a single container collection, moving workshop machinery or organising deliveries for a building project.

Our aim is to make that first conversation easier. A useful listing tells you what a company does, where it operates and how to contact it, so you can discuss the work with the people who will quote for it.

Local searches, complete journeys

Choose the area where you need the collection or delivery. An operator listed for a town may be based nearby and may also undertake longer journeys. Give both addresses when enquiring, particularly when a purchase needs collecting elsewhere in the country.

The directory has a maximum of five operator places in each local area. Some areas are still building coverage. Where nearby operators are shown, ask them to confirm whether they can cover your location and dates. A directory result is a starting point for an enquiry, not a reserved vehicle.

Different loads need different equipment

Hiab hire can cover containers, cabins, generators, steel, machinery and building materials. Some businesses also advertise specialist services such as boat movements. Review the individual profile rather than assuming every operator handles every type of load.

Fleet details, service descriptions and photographs help you explain what you need. The provider will still assess the load weight, dimensions, crane reach and collection and delivery arrangements before confirming a suitable vehicle.

A direct relationship with your operator

You agree the quotation, booking, payment and job arrangements directly with the chosen business. HiabHub does not supply vehicles, take transport bookings or set operators’ hire rates. For a booking change or a question about an existing movement, contact that operator.

If you are new to Hiab hire, our service and planning guides explain the information to gather before requesting a price. Start with the two postcodes, load details and preferred date; photographs can make an unfamiliar item much easier to discuss.

For Hiab businesses

Operators can register their interest in listing the areas they serve and provide information about their vehicles and services. We review the submitted details and permission before publication. HiabHub is operated by Hiab Hire Network Ltd.
