Hiab or roll on roll off

[scaffman1]

Alright lads,
I'm looking for a larger wagon but I'm not sure what to go for. I'ts going to be either an 18 or 26 ton with a hiab, or a roll on roll off. What do you think I should go for??

If you have a good driver/hiab operator go with that. He can lift gear to places a roll off wont get to.

hiab allday long

Hiab everyday , 6 wheeler and crane !

**** the roll on off

 

[JPLEWIS]

Yep hiab all day long!!

 

[philliosmaximus]

I would go for the Hiab as well

 

[phil181]

I'll go for the roll off just to annoy everyone...

 

[Havespannerwilltravel]

Why not a flat bed and some Algerians to load and unload it or some Cape scaffolders?

 

[Flinty]

Those roll offs are well easy to load up on site though when you've got a feck load of gear to shift.....

We're in the middle of buying a HIAB at the minute

Roll on roll off take up too much room in the yard.

 

[Havespannerwilltravel]

But not as easy as slinging a load and letting the driver pull those levers.

Depends on how big your yard is, I suppose...

Big enough for a HIAB but not big enough for RoRo's Phil

Prefer the roll on roll off myself to much messing about banding gear up and stillages going missing with the hiab just drop a bed and its just easier in my opinion!!!

 

[scaff-sales]

How about hiab with roll on off

They're rubbish marra.

What you want is a roll-off with a hiab...

roro all day long, f**k the HSE, handrails on the side of lorries, who'd of thought, whatever next, scaffolders working behind 2 handrails {sg4 15} ???????????

 

[stonedrose1]

Roll on! That is all.

Ro-ro all day - much quicker turnaround on site and in the yard, so will get extra runs compared to a Hiab. We have one with a Multilift ro-ro system and Hiab, but it's once in a blue moon the crane actually gets used.
