Aerial work platform rental Groningen - platforms, telehandlers and forklifts
Groningen is the northernmost major city in the Netherlands - a university city, an emerging hub for the energy transition and the starting point of one of the largest construction and renovation programmes in Northern Europe: the strengthening of buildings in the province's earthquake-affected gas extraction area. For these and all other construction projects, industrial jobs and logistics requests in the region, Luibl Rental rents out aerial work platforms, telehandlers and forklifts - with delivery throughout the Netherlands and its own low-loader fleet.
Luibl Rental for Groningen: own logistics, delivery throughout the Netherlands
With our own low-loader fleet, we deliver rental machines directly to Groningen and the neighbouring regions of Drenthe, Friesland and the Eemsdelta - without an intermediate forwarder and with plannable delivery dates.
For companies operating in Groningen or the north-east of the Netherlands, Luibl Rental handles the entire rental process: advice, quotation, delivery coordination and machine documentation. Short-term rental for individual project days as well as long-term rental over several months - with combined offers if you need several machines at the same time.
Groningen sees itself as a trade and services centre with a growing industrial base. Companies from logistics, construction, agriculture, the energy sector and manufacturing are among our customers - from single rentals to equipping projects for several months.
Aerial work platform rental in Groningen - all types for construction, energy and industry
Bi-Energy and electric scissor lift rental in Groningen
For installation, maintenance and repair work in halls, warehouses and industrial buildings, we offer scissor lifts with different drive concepts. The Genie GS 3369BE (11.75m working height, 454 kg load capacity, platform size 4.31m × 2.79m) runs on Bi-Energy: electric indoors without exhaust fumes, with a combustion engine outdoors on sites without a power supply. Ideal for sites in the earthquake area or for hall installations in the Eemsdelta. Load capacities up to 1,000 kg; self-propelled and controllable from the platform.
Large-platform scissor lifts - more space, more reach
For projects where several people work at the same time or over a larger area, the Holland Lift HL 340D30 4WDS/N is available: 33.70m working height, 1,000 kg load capacity and a platform of 9.66m × 6.66m. This platform is ideal for hall roof renovations, bridge undersides or large-scale maintenance work on industrial plants in the Eemsdelta and at Chemie Park Delfzijl.
Articulating boom lifts for outdoor work
For facade work, infrastructure installation and outdoor jobs on construction sites or industrial premises, we offer articulating boom lifts in diesel, hybrid and electric versions up to 52m working height. They can be used independently without a fixed power supply - ideal for installation work on the extensive industrial site of the Eemshaven.
Telehandler and roto telehandler rental for Groningen
Telehandlers are indispensable on Groningen's construction sites and in the agriculture of the northern provinces.
Luibl Rental distinguishes between:
-
Fixed telehandlers for fast material transport, unloading lorries and positioning structural elements. The Merlo P. 38.13 (3,800 kg load capacity, 12.60m lift height, 8.60m outreach, compact dimensions 5.24m × 2.22m × 2.44m) is a versatile short-boom telehandler that excels on tight sites and in agriculture in the Groningen region. Heavy-duty versions up to 27 tonnes available.
-
Roto telehandlers allow flexible work as a crane, winch crane and stacker in one thanks to the rotating superstructure. We rent roto telehandlers from Manitou and Merlo in 21m, 25m, 30m and up to 35m lift height versions, with load capacities of 4, 5 and 6 tonnes. With scissor outriggers they remain stable even on uneven ground. All telehandlers come from leading quality brands such as Manitou, Merlo and Magni and meet CE requirements (EN 1459) for commercial use in the Netherlands.
Forklift rental in Groningen
For in-house logistics, warehousing and material transport in Groningen's industrial and trading companies, we rent forklifts with all drive types:
-
Diesel forklifts: for outdoor use on construction sites, industrial premises and open storage areas; load capacity up to 16,000 kg
-
Electric forklifts: zero local emissions and quiet for indoor use - ideal for distribution centres and food businesses
-
Rough-terrain forklifts: rugged tyres, high ground clearance for construction sites and agricultural use
-
Heavy-duty forklifts: up to 16 tonnes for the heaviest industrial applications and heavy machinery logistics
Safety standards – NEN-EN 280 and the Dutch Arbowet
All aerial work platforms and telehandlers bear the CE mark and comply with the EU Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC as well as NEN-EN 280 (aerial work platforms) and EN 1459 (telehandlers) in the version applicable in the Netherlands. This means they meet the basic requirements of the Dutch Working Conditions Act (Arbeidsomstandighedenwet, Arbowet).
Declarations of conformity and inspection records are available on request at delivery.
Legal notice: For the operation of aerial work platforms in the Netherlands, requirements for the operator's competence apply in line with applicable Dutch health and safety rules. Please have the specific requirements for your job checked before work starts.
