Rent Aerial Work Platforms in Bern – Scissor, Telescopic & Trailer-Mounted Lifts

For construction, installation, and maintenance projects in the Swiss capital, Luibl offers a certified range of aerial work platforms for rent – with direct delivery via our own fleet of low-loader trucks to all districts of Bern and the surrounding area. Whether it's facade work in Mattenhof, hall installations in the Bümpliz industrial area, or maintenance work at the BERNEXPO site: our equipment is available at short notice and meets the requirements of SUVA as well as the relevant Swiss occupational safety regulations.

Depending on the site, ground conditions, and required working height, the following platform types are available:

Scissor Lifts – Electric and Diesel

Electric scissor lifts are the first choice for indoor work in halls, commercial buildings, and public buildings – locally emission-free, compact, and gentle on hall flooring. Diesel-powered models handle construction sites, paved outdoor areas, and industrial facilities. Working heights from 6 m to over 18 m, load capacities up to 450 kg. In stock: Genie, Manitou.

Telescopic and Articulating Boom Lifts

Telescopic boom lifts offer great outreach even in confined spaces – suitable for facade work on historic buildings in Bern's Old Town, cable work under bridges, or work near railway tracks. Articulating boom lifts are used wherever obstacles need to be maneuvered around. Working heights up to 43 m available.

Trailer-Mounted Platforms

For trade businesses and smaller individual jobs, towable trailer-mounted platforms are the cost-effective solution. No category C driving licence required, easy to transport and quick to set up. Working heights up to 16 m.
