Our business was founded on two basic principles, to supply high quality access platforms and deliver exceptional customer service. We still stand by these principles 30+ years later, and retain the same passion and enthusiasm for both the equipment, and to providing our customers with a personalised and cost-effective solution to working at height.
Since 1987 Access Platform Sales have proudly represented some of the very best brands of powered access platforms and material handling equipment in the UK. We work very closely with our suppliers, and coupled with our financial strength we can offer our customers high quality and superb performing equipment at competitive prices, with many being available from stock for immediate delivery.
We’ve helped hundreds of satisfied customers work safer and smarter at height through honest advice and a comprehensive assessment of their needs. Our commitment to maintaining high levels of stock ensure we can deliver to short time-scales, and if we don’t have the exact equipment you want…we’ll source it for you!
When you’re buying used equipment, you need assurance that it will give you safe and continued performance during its lifecycle.
Every Approved Used access platform and material lift is thoroughly inspected by our experienced CAP-trained engineers at our own workshops. Following the inspection, we then refurbish according to the overall condition of the equipment. Inferior equipment is scrapped so you never need to worry about buying anything that is considered unworthy of a second life.
We give you a choice of refurbishment standards, each priced at a different level - Bronze, Silver or Gold – which comes with our industry leading warranty.
