Hi,
I am looking at buying a car but it is ontop of a shipping container and one of the ways to get it off is to use a crane. So if anyone has a flatbed truck with a crane attached and would be able to use it on monday 1st that would be great. please pm me |

If anyone is able to let me borrow it for monday that would be great, I am willing to negotiate price and if your able to lend a truck or want to come and get the car off and then put it on my car trailer that would be ok as well.

Try Botany Access or Construction Rescue. Not sure what the cost will be but they will have the equipment to suit.

I think hiring won't work as the car is right near parramatta rd.

Industrial/Yard forklift will do the job.
Not sure if you'll get the height or SWL with a truck mounted Hiab tho, maybe a 10 tonner might get the job done .

My mate uses his forklift to pick up and stack cars, a good size forklift will do it easy.
What does a HD weight 2 ton max, so the forklift would only need to be about 2.5 ton as you should be able to pick it up with the mast straight, you may need fork slippers to make sure they are long enough to fit all the way through |

Hi Mods please delete thread. I am not going to get the car to much money to invest in for something unknown.
thanks Stewart |

looked like a shitter anyway, even for a dollar the hassle of getting it down and transporting it would have been over capitalising
