Arrange your Ipswich job directly
Your Ipswich enquiry goes directly to Blakes Self Loading Vehicles Ltd. Use the services and fleet information on this page to describe the work, then agree the vehicle, lifting arrangements, timing and price with the operator. Include any collection outside Ipswich in the same enquiry so the quotation covers the full journey.
Port-Related Equipment Collections
A crane-equipped vehicle may be worth discussing for suitable project equipment, machinery or framed loads, but the operator must assess the individual consignment. Provide weight, dimensions and the loading arrangement offered by the cargo handler. Port handling and road transport are not automatically the same service, so make clear which lifting tasks you want the transport company to provide.
Machinery and Business Equipment
If the supplier has a forklift but the receiver does not, explain that the vehicle's crane is required for delivery. For equipment replacement, include the old unit and its destination if it needs removing. A complete specification helps the business consider vehicle space, payload and the heaviest single lift together.
Fleet & cranes
The submitted fleet includes rigid Hiabs, articulated Hiabs, 7.5-tonne Hiab vehicles and other crane vehicles, with an 82 tonne-metre Fassi crane specified. The website also describes extendable, drawbar and all-steer trailers. Capacity varies with radius and configuration; ask Blakes to assess the load and site before booking.
