What is HIAB?

HIAB is a popular brand name for a Lorry Mounted Crane. Our training is comprehensive and teaches clients to properly load and unload from the back of a vehicle that has a lorry mounted crane attached. Accidents may occur if this sort of equipment is used without proper training first so it’s vital a course is taken. This machine is a great alternative to a crane as it can be driven between work sites on the same day.

HIAB qualifications are available in 2 varieties, ALLMI and ITSSAR. ALLMI is the most recognised organisation within the lorry loader industry and is CSCS approved meaning it is able to deliver to construction sites. ITSSAR is widely recognised within the general haulage industry focusing on mechanical handling equipment and is slightly more economical. Both courses have their own merit and are valuable to complete.

Our HIAB certificate is valid to be applied for cranes up to 20 tonnes/metres. A driver can also use a remote HIAB, which is when you use a remote chest pack instead of using the controls on the side of the machine. Our training will certify you to use both.

What is TOPS?

TOPS stands for the Trained Operator Passport Scheme and was introduced by ITSSAR. This system is a comprehensive database which shows all a drivers training qualifications. This system shows a driver’s competence on different vehicles so can help to prevent accidents by only allowing skilled drivers to use the equipment.

Our Portsmouth branch can provide comprehensive HIAB training to a variety of learners. We also have depots in Southampton, Reading and Worthing. We can also bring a HIAB vehicle to your site anywhere in Hampshire and Berkshire.
