HIAB Services for Waste, Recycling & Container Providers
AC Lifting handles container, compactor and bulk-waste-asset movements for waste management, recycling and container hire firms UK-wide.
What we move
- 20ft and 40ft waste containers and roll-on/roll-off bodies (HIAB lift where access requires)
- Static compactors and baler units — relocation, installation, removal
- Skips on awkward-access jobs where a standard skip wagon can’t set down
- Container swaps between sites
- Decommissioning and end-of-life container removals
Who this fits
Waste management companies, recycling operators, container providers, skip hire firms and industrial facilities that need container and compactor moves alongside their normal fleet.
Why HIAB works here
- Lift containers over walls, fences and bunds into restricted-access yards.
- Place compactors exactly on plinth — no repositioning, no reshuffles.
- Collect from closed sites where a standard RoRo arm won’t reach.
- Handle one-off relocations without tying up your own fleet.
Frequently asked questions
Can you take loaded waste containers?
Only if the loaded weight is inside our lift rating at the reach required — and we need to know what’s in it. For full loaded RoRos the weight usually exceeds HIAB reach capacity; for part-loaded or asset-only moves we’re typically fine.
Do you handle static compactor installs?
Yes — delivery, lift into position on the installed plinth, alignment with the receiving container. We’ll coordinate with your engineer on the day.
Waste duty of care — what do you need from us?
We move containers and equipment, not waste transfer loads, so we’re not typically a waste carrier on the job. For any move that becomes a waste transfer we’ll talk through Waste Transfer Notes before committing.
