A real focus on Safety

ESTABLISHED in 1998 by Jarrod and Karli Sutherland, Quicklift Crane Hire has grown their team to over 30, with over 20 cranes with capacities up to 250 tonne.

Their success lies in the skill of their team, the quality and variety of equipment, and commitment to safety.

“We want everyone to go home at the end of the day safely. As parents, with our son Ty working in the business, we have the ultimate justification for safety,” said Karli.

“A lot has changed over the last 24 years. With safety in particular, there has been a shift from authorities regularly checking business safety compliance, to now leaving it up to business to selfregulate, then looking to prosecute when things go wrong,” added Jarrod.

“This change has meant some operators are not even aware of their responsibilities, and customers are unaware of their responsibility and liability. We spend a lot of time and money ensuring systems are in place to reduce the risk of things going wrong, and provide a level of protection for our customers in the unlikely event they do. We have invested heavily in new technology, for example cranes with technology that sense how far the outriggers are extended and automatically adjusts the lifting capacity accordingly on the computer.” Quicklift utilise ‘Lift Planning’ software to visualise how a lift will be performed, whilst demonstrating the level of safety margin in each lift.

Another of their strengths is the ability to supply at short notice. “With over 20 cranes we can ensure, the customer gets the right equipment for their job, and that we can supply at short notice or in an emergency,” said Jarrod.
