Lift rental in Elverum

Forest, sawmills and farm buildings

Forestry has long been an important industry in Østerdalen, and around Elverum there are sawmills, warehouses, machinery sheds and farm buildings. Many of them are large timber buildings with tall walls and roofs that need maintenance.

Outside on gravel or an uneven plot, a rough terrain scissor lift is a good choice. It has a large platform, drives on rough ground and suits jobs where several people are working along a long wall. On hard ground around a hall, a trailer lift is easier to move between buildings.

Many of these buildings also have solar panels or ventilation on the roof that need installing or checking. Then it helps to have a lift with room for two people and tools.

Cold winters and short days

Østerdalen has cold winters, and a lot of outdoor work is put off until the summer months. When something does have to be done in winter, such as clearing snow from a roof, straightening a gutter or changing a bulb on a mast, it is worth thinking about the ground. Ice and hard-packed snow under the outriggers call for boards and plenty of time to level the lift.

The battery lifts can handle the cold, but they run down faster when it is cold. Charge every evening, and if you can, put the lift indoors overnight. For building sites that need to be kept warm, we also have construction heaters.

Homes and new neighbourhoods

Elverum has everything from older detached and semi-detached houses to newer housing estates and blocks of flats. On an ordinary house, painting, gutters, windows and felling trees in the garden are the most common jobs that need a lift.

For a two-storey house a trailer lift is usually enough. If the house is far from the driveway or has tall trees around it, you need more outreach. An 18-metre trailer lift may then be the right choice.

Leiret, the Glomma and the neighbouring villages

The Glomma divides Elverum in two, and the town has both a centre with commercial buildings and large residential areas on both sides of the river. In the centre it is mostly facade work, signs and windows on several floors, often with little space between the building and the street.

Outside the town there are villages and farms along the valley and into the forest, where the roads are long and the gravel roads often narrow. For places like these it is wise to check that the road can take a car with a trailer, and that you have room to turn when you get there.

From Flisa or from Lillehammer

At Flisa we have the Dino 105TL and 180XTB trailer lifts, a Genie GS-1932 scissor lift, site cabins, scaffold trailers and a plate compactor. The pick-up point is at Gausdal Landhandleri, Negardsvegen 22. The Flisa depot can be reached on +47 413 78 447 and is open Mon–Fri 07:00–17:00 and Sat 09:00–15:00.

Tracked lifts, boom lifts and larger rough terrain scissor lifts come from the main depot in Lillehammer. We deliver them with our own transport, and you get instruction when the lift arrives.

Site cabins and power for the site

On larger jobs out in the forest or on a new development, the work crew often needs somewhere to eat and change. Site cabins can be hired from Flisa together with the lift, so everything is in place at once. Tell us what you need and we will put the equipment together.

A plate compactor and scaffold trailers are also kept at Flisa, so you can pick up what you need for groundwork and facade work on the same trip as the lift.
