Aerial work platform rental Rotterdam – platforms, telehandlers & forklifts
Rotterdam is Europe's largest seaport – a hub for petrochemicals, container logistics, heavy-lift handling and one of the most active high-rise construction sectors in the Netherlands. Luibl Rental rents out aerial work platforms, telehandlers and forklifts for projects in Rotterdam and the entire Randstad: delivery throughout the Netherlands, with its own low-loader fleet.

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. Our full-service team answers all questions about machine selection and delivery dates directly and promptly.
Aerial work platform rental in Rotterdam – all types for port, industry and high-rise
Scissor lift rental in Rotterdam
For maintenance, assembly and installation work in warehouses, logistics centres and industrial buildings, we offer electric and diesel scissor lifts with lift heights from 6 to 35 metres.
The electric version with non-marking tyres is in particularly high demand in enclosed production halls in the Botlek industrial area or in distribution centres in the Waalhaven.
Load capacities up to 1,000 kg; self-propelled, controllable from the platform.
Articulating and telescopic boom lift rental
For facade work, bridge and port infrastructure and outdoor jobs, articulating boom lifts are the most flexible choice.
The Manitou 280 TJ (27.73 m working height, 350 kg load capacity, 21.45 m outreach) works independently without a power connection – ideal for outdoor assembly on the extensive Europoort site or on quayside buildings in the port.
Diesel and hybrid versions up to 52 m working height available.
Large-platform aerial work platforms for port and industry
The JLG Liftlux 320-30 offers 34 m working height with a load capacity of 1,000 kg and a platform size of 9.60 m × 7.85 m – ideal for teams working on a large area at the same time: tank inspections in the Pernis refinery area, bridge undersides or hall roof renovations on the Maasvlakte.
For mini crane work in confined locations, the Maeda CC1485 (16.70 m lift height, 6,000 kg load capacity) is available.
Telehandler and roto telehandler rental for Rotterdam
On Rotterdam's busy sites – from port expansions to the booming housing construction in the city – telehandlers are indispensable.
Luibl Rental distinguishes between:
-
Fixed telehandlers for fast material transport, unloading trucks and positioning structural elements. Lift heights from 6 to 18 metres; heavy-duty versions up to 27 tonnes load capacity for the heaviest industrial operations in the Pernis-Botlek complex.
-
Roto telehandlers use their rotating superstructure to work flexibly as a crane, winch crane and stacker – without repositioning. We rent out roto telehandlers from Manitou and Merlo in versions with 21 m, 25 m, 30 m and up to 35 m lift height, with load capacities of 4, 5 and 6 tonnes. Thanks to scissor outriggers they stand securely even on uneven ground or on quay slabs.
In particularly high demand for Rotterdam projects: Manitou roto telehandlers with long outreach for work between ship and quay.
All telehandlers come from leading quality brands such as Manitou, Merlo and Magni and are CE-compliant for professional use in the Netherlands (EN 1459).
Forklift rental in Rotterdam
The port of Rotterdam and the adjacent industrial zones are among the largest logistics hubs in Europe. Luibl Rental rents out forklifts for every requirement:
-
Diesel forklifts: for outdoor use on port areas, container terminals and open storage; load capacity up to 16,000 kg
-
Electric forklifts: no local emissions for indoor use – ideal for distribution centres in the Botlek or Waalhaven
-
Rough-terrain forklifts: robust tyres, high ground clearance for sites, quay areas and unpaved terrain
-
Heavy-duty forklifts: up to 16 tonnes load capacity for the heaviest industrial applications and heavy machine components
Safety standards – NEN-EN 280 and the Dutch Arbowet
All aerial work platforms and telehandlers bear the CE marking 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. They therefore meet the basic requirements of the Dutch Working Conditions Act (Arbowet) for professional use. Declarations of conformity and proof of inspection are available on request on delivery.
Legal note: additional requirements may apply to the operation of aerial work platforms in the Netherlands – in particular regarding the competence of the operator (VCA/NRM certificate) under Dutch law. Please have the specific operator requirements legally reviewed before work starts.
