Swain Lifting Solutions has been providing Hiab hire, Construction Logistics, and Contract Lifting solutions to the Aviation, Rail and Construction industries since 1979. Working in partnership with Airport operators, Network Rail and other contractors, our solutions always maximise the short windows of opportunity available.

With more than 30 years of experience in the Haulage and Logistics industry, Swain Lifting Solutions is committed to achieving the highest standard of Health, Safety and welfare for our customers, employees and everyone involved with our operations. This is a core part of our business and is particularly important given that many of the areas in which we work – such as airside and railside – can be seen as high risk environments.

We are accredited via the highly regarded Lloyds Register Quality Assurance scheme for:

  • ISO 9001
  • ISO 14001
  • ISO 45001
  • BS OHSAS 18001

Our services include moving, lifting, positioning, storage and warehousing of heavy plant, equipment and materials. We provide project services involving lifting with associated structural engineering and fabrication works with unique and tailor made risk assessments.

Everything we do is in line with our commitment to quality. As well as the quality standards shown above, we also comply with many other standards and are members of many key industry bodies whose guidelines we follow. These include:

FORS Gold: The TFL and Crossrail Freight Operators Recognition Scheme

Road Haulage Association: The RHA is the trade association of choice for road transport and freight logistics operators.
