Since launching in Australia, we’ve seen first-hand how many companies still don’t realise that hiring lifting and rigging equipment is even an option. Too often, teams spend huge amounts buying specialist gear for a single project — only for it to sit idle once the job is done.
Hiring from LGH changes that. You get safe, certified equipment only when you need it, with the flexibility to scale up or down for every project. Here are 12 reasons why renting from LGH just makes sense.
1. Expert Guidance
With decades of combined lifting and rigging experience, our rental specialists help you select the right equipment first time. No guesswork, no costly mistakes — just the right solution for your project.
2. Safe & Certified Gear
Every LGH hoist, beam, or shackle is fully tested and certified before it leaves our depot. You get equipment that meets Australian standards, giving your team peace of mind on site.
3. Scale Up or Down Easily
Projects change — and so do your equipment needs. Hiring allows you to ramp up when workloads peak, and return gear when the job winds down, without the hassle of ownership.
4. Right Tool for Every Job
Need a hoist with extra chain length? A lifting beam to suit tight spaces? At LGH, we tailor gear to your requirements so you’re never forced to “make do” with the wrong tool.
5. Access to World-Class Brands
We partner with trusted manufacturers like Tiger, JDN, and Reid, giving you access to some of the best equipment in the world — maintained, inspected, and ready for use.
6. Eliminate Downtime
If something goes wrong, downtime is not an option. LGH can supply replacement equipment quickly — often the same day — to keep your project moving without disruption.
7. No Idle Assets
Owning specialist equipment often means it sits unused for months between jobs. Hiring removes that burden — you only pay for gear when it’s working for you.
8. No Storage Costs
Every square metre of warehouse space costs money. By renting, LGH becomes your equipment warehouse — freeing up your space for productive use.
9. No Maintenance Headaches
Inspection, servicing, tagging, certification — all included when you hire from LGH. We handle the upkeep so you don’t need to worry about compliance or safety checks.
10. Tax Benefits
Hiring equipment is treated differently from ownership — in many cases, it offers more favourable tax treatment, helping to reduce your annual burden.
11. Better Cash Flow
By avoiding big upfront purchases, you keep more capital free for core business activities — whether that’s taking on new projects, hiring staff, or investing in growth.
12. Conserve Capital
Just like you wouldn’t buy a car for a week-long trip, it doesn’t make sense to buy specialist lifting equipment for a one-off project. Renting keeps your capital working where it counts.
Hiring from LGH means more than just getting equipment — it’s about having a partner who helps you work safer, smarter and more efficiently.
