Rough Terrain Scissor Lift Rental (4)

Rough terrain scissor lifts provide secure aerial work platforms that allow construction, maintenance, and industrial workers to reach elevated work zones...Show More

Rough terrain scissor lifts provide secure aerial work platforms that allow construction, maintenance, and industrial workers to reach elevated work zones. Scissor lifts are characterized by a wide base that supports an elevated platform that itself can carry several workers at once. Interlocking struts underneath help support a stable, flat surface.

The base of the lift has heavy duty tires that allow it to maneuver on uneven surfaces, with some models capable of handling slopes of 50%, making it far superior to a ladder. These types of scissor lifts are best for outdoor tasks with limited space. They come in both electric- and diesel powered versions and can rise between 26 and 50 feet. Check out the FAQs below to learn more.

FAQs

How much does it cost to rent a rough terrain scissor lift?

A rough terrain scissor lift rental price largely depends on the location and availability, which can fluctuate, and on how much vertical height you want. A 26-foot model costs the least at about $154 per day, $409 per week, and $1,008 per month. In comparison, a 50-foot model costs about $379 per day, $891 per week, and $2,187 per month.

How high can rough terrain scissor lifts extend?

The rough terrain scissor lifts we offer at BigRentz are four wheel drive and can extend either 26 feet in the air, 32 feet, 40 feet, or all the way up to 50 feet. Keep in mind the max working height for each model is a little bit higher than that (32 feet, 38 feet, 47 feet, and 53 feet, respectively).

What is the lift capacity for rough terrain scissor lifts?

Most of our scissor lifts have a lift capacity of 1,500 pounds, though some go up to 2,250 pounds. Check the spec sheet for the lift you’re interested in renting.

What type of rough terrain scissor lift do I need?

Rough terrain scissor lifts are good for outdoor job sites where there is a lot of uneven terrain or steep slopes. They can also operate better in inclement weather than other types of scissor lifts. However, the type of power source they use should also factor into your decision:

  • Diesel: Diesel-powered scissor lifts are the most common type of scissor lifts. These machines are powerful and noisy, and thus are best suited for outdoor construction sites. Diesel vehicles are very common on construction sites, so you’re likely to already have all the diesel equipment and fuel you need on site. Diesel also tends to get better fuel efficiency than gas.
  • Gas: Gas is actually quite similar to diesel in terms of power and speed, but it’s not as fuel efficient as diesel. Also, since most construction equipment runs on diesel, you may not have the necessary tools and fuel on site to keep the scissor lift functioning and will have to purchase and store that fuel separately.
  • Electric: Electric scissor lifts are ideal if the job site is indoors or if you want to have a more environmentally friendly option because they do not produce emissions and are silent. They also tend to be less bulky than a diesel scissor lift, so they are good for tight spaces. You will have to charge the battery several hours before use, but it will last nearly all day—just check it periodically.
