Need equipment? Have equipment?
Buyers post one request and get quotes from verified suppliers. Suppliers list free and reach active demand.
No aerial platforms are listed for hire in Kolkata today. If you need scissor lifts or boom lifts for work at height, post a request giving the height, the site and the dates, and suppliers can reply with a quote in INR. Owners of platforms can list them for free.
Suppliers list their machines and agree the price directly with the hirer, by phone or WhatsApp. EquipmentsFinder takes no commission and charges hirers nothing. Ask each supplier whether the quote covers an operator, delivery, a harness and GST, so that offers can be compared fairly.
Check the working height, the platform's load and the width of doors and lanes it must pass.
Older Kolkata buildings have fine detail and tight frontage: repainting, repair of balconies and cornices, and cable and signage jobs along busy roads such as those around Park Street and Esplanade. Newer office blocks and malls in Salt Lake, Rajarhat and New Town need glazing and fit-out access. Howrah's factories and the jute and engineering sheds along the river need maintenance at roof level, and port-side warehouses need lamp and crane-rail work.
Rain and soft ground matter outdoors. A boom lift on a wet verge can tilt, so ask about outrigger pads and tracked or rough-terrain models. Working near power lines requires a safe clearance that the site manager should set.
Platform operators need a valid licence for the machine class, and a harness and a trained person on the ground are standard on many sites. Each supplier says what is included, so ask whether an operator or a spotter is part of the price.
State how high, how far across, and whether the work is indoors or out. Visit the Kolkata rental hub, the India aerial platform page or aerial platforms for sale in Kolkata. The Bengaluru version is here.
No rates are published because nothing is listed yet. Suppliers price by the day, week or month, and working height, power type and delivery change the figure. Ask for GST to be shown separately.
Begin with the working height and the reach, then the floor: scissor lifts need level, firm ground. Narrow lanes and doorways may rule out wide machines. A supplier can advise once they know the task.
That differs by supplier and is stated in the listing or quote. Some hire with an operator, some dry. A Kolkata operator needs a licence valid for the machine class.
Often yes for small scissor lifts close to the supplier. Suppliers set minimum hire periods, and moving a large boom lift by trailer can cost more than the day.
The person at the controls must hold a licence valid for the machine class. Any further permits depend on the site and the road, since work on a public street may need approval. Check before it arrives.
Both exist. Battery machines are quiet and suit indoor work, while diesel machines handle rough outdoor ground. Each supplier states the power type.
