Buy Lifting & Moving Equipment
Lifting and Moving Equipment is a critical buy for construction sites, workshops, warehouses, and industrial facilities where materials, machinery, and loads need to be moved safely and efficiently without manual handling risk. From engine hoists and chain blocks through to pallet jacks and material trolleys, having the right lifting equipment on site reduces injury risk, speeds up operations, and ensures loads are handled within safe working load limits. Wenbro stocks a range of Lifting and Moving Equipment suited to construction and industrial use, all maintained in-house. For the full range of site support equipment, see our Miscellaneous category, and for moving materials between levels, our Conveyors provide a practical bulk handling solution.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of Lifting and Moving Equipment does Wenbro stock?
Wenbro’s Lifting and Moving Equipment range covers equipment for safe load handling in construction and industrial environments. Contact the team on 087 073 7777 to confirm current stock, safe working load ratings, and specifications available across the range.
What safe working load (SWL) ratings should I look for?
SWL must always exceed the maximum load you intend to lift, with an appropriate safety margin. Never exceed a piece of lifting equipment’s rated SWL — overloading is a leading cause of lifting equipment failure and serious injury. All lifting equipment should be clearly marked with its SWL and inspected before each use.
What inspections and certifications are required for lifting equipment?
Lifting equipment used on construction and industrial sites is typically required to undergo regular thorough examinations by a competent person — usually at six-monthly or annual intervals depending on the equipment type and application. Always retain inspection records and remove any equipment from service that fails inspection until repaired and re-certified.
Can Lifting and Moving Equipment be used for machinery relocation and plant moves?
Yes — machinery skates, engine hoists, and heavy-duty moving equipment are commonly used for relocating construction plant, workshop equipment, and industrial machinery within facilities. Correct SWL selection and rigging practice are essential for safe machinery moves. Contact Wenbro on 087 073 7777 for advice on the right equipment for your load.
Does Wenbro service Lifting and Moving Equipment after purchase?
Yes — all Lifting and Moving Equipment purchased through Wenbro is supported by in-house maintenance and inspection support. Given the safety-critical nature of lifting equipment, regular servicing and inspection is non-negotiable. Call 087 073 7777 to discuss a maintenance and inspection schedule.
