    What is a Cherry Picker and Who Uses Them?

    A cherry picker (also known as a mobile elevated work platform or MEWP) is a versatile piece of kit. Whether it’s articulated boom lifts, scissor lifts, telescopic booms, or truck-mounted access platforms, cherry pickers make work at height safe and efficient.

    They’re essential for businesses in:

    • Construction

    • Property maintenance

    • Telecoms and electrical installations

    • Tree surgery and landscaping

    • Film and media production

    • Warehousing and logistics

    If your business needs to get people or tools safely into the air, a cherry picker is often the best solution. And financing one can help you grow your business without straining your cash flow.

    What We Offer – Flexible, Fast, and Personalised Finance

    Every business is different. That’s why we don’t do off-the-shelf finance.

    Instead, we offer:

    • Hire Purchase

    • Finance Lease

    • Operating Lease

    • Refinancing existing equipment

    • Seasonal payment structures for industries with cyclical income

    We look at your business, your plans, and your needs. Then we find the right finance product from the right lender. It’s all designed to help you get what you need without delay.

    And don’t worry—we’ll explain every step clearly. No jargon. No surprises. Just good old-fashioned service.

    Start-Up or New Limited Company? You’re Still Welcome

    Many business owners assume that if they’ve just set up, they won’t qualify for equipment finance.

    But that’s where we come in.

    Because of our access to a broad, specialist panel of lenders, we can often help businesses that banks and traditional lenders turn away.

    So, if you’re a new limited company, or a start-up with limited trading history, we can still help you finance a cherry picker or access platform.

    We know that having the right machinery early on can make all the difference. And we believe in giving businesses a real chance to grow.

    Industries We Help – It’s Not Just Cherry Pickers

    Although we specialise in cherry picker finance, we help all kinds of businesses access the machinery and vehicles they need. Some of our most popular sectors include:

    • Tractors

    • Telehandlers

    • Balers

    • Harvesters

    • Livestock trailers

    • ATV/UTVs

    • Crop sprayers

    • Feed systems

    Our agricultural finance options often include seasonal payment plans, allowing you to align repayments with your income cycles. Whether you’re expanding your farm, upgrading machinery, or replacing old kit—we’re here to help.

    Construction and Plant Hire

    Construction companies regularly finance:

    • Excavators

    • Dumpers

    • Rollers

    • Concrete mixers

    • Tower cranes

    • Site cabins

    And, of course—cherry pickers, scissor lifts, and boom lifts.

    We understand the demands of construction cash flow and can offer structured solutions to match.

    2. We Match You to the Right Lender
      We do the legwork. Based on your circumstances, we approach lenders that suit your business model and sector.

    3. You Get an Offer—Fast
      We’ll present you with your options. You choose what works best. We’ll explain everything clearly.

    4. Documents Signed, Funds Released
      Once approved, your supplier is paid and the equipment is yours to use.

    5. You Get Support Throughout
      Have a question? Want to upgrade equipment in a year? We’re here when you need us—not just when we’re selling.

    And we never charge hidden fees. What you see is what you get.

    Used Cherry Picker? No Problem

    Many businesses prefer to finance used cherry pickers because they offer good value and quick availability.

    We work with lenders who are happy to finance quality used assets, as long as they meet age and condition criteria. You can buy from a dealer or private seller—we’ll help you check the asset, arrange payment, and stay protected.

    You can even check MOT history and previous use details at GOV.UK Vehicle Checker.
