We also handle relocations between sites, ensuring the safe transportation and installation of machinery at a new location when required. Additionally, we offer removal and disposal of redundant equipment, including environmentally responsible scrap recycling and disposal services.
We understand the complexity of machinery moving, from planning the safest relocation route within your site to transporting and positioning equipment with precision. Our fully managed service ensures minimal disruption, allowing you to focus on running your business while we handle the logistics.
Based in Great Yarmouth and operating nationwide, our experienced team is available 24/7, offering flexible solutions for all types of machinery moves.
Why Choose Advanced Lifting for Machinery Relocation?
Specialist Internal Machinery Moving
Unlike many other lifting companies, we specialise in internal machinery moves, repositioning equipment within a factory, warehouse, or industrial site. This requires careful planning to navigate through tight spaces, avoid production downtime, and ensure the move is completed with minimal disruption.
Full-Service Solutions
From planning and dismantling to transport and precise reinstallation, we manage every stage of the machinery moving process. We also offer disposal and recycling of redundant equipment, providing a seamless solution for facility reorganisations.
Minimise Downtime
We know that production downtime is costly. That’s why we plan every move meticulously to ensure the quickest, safest, and most efficient relocation, allowing your business operations to continue with minimal disruption.
Specialist Equipment
We use specialist handling equipment to ensure safe and efficient moves, including counterbalance forklifts for stability, Versa-Lifts for heavy loads in tight spaces, lorry loaders and telehandlers for high-reach tasks, spider cranes for restricted areas, and pick-and-carry cranes for flexible internal moves. Whether relocating a vending machine or a large injection molder, we have the right tools for the job.
24/7 Availability
Operating from Great Yarmouth, we provide nationwide coverage and are available 24/7 to meet tight project timelines, ensuring your machinery is moved at a time that works best for you.
Environmentally Responsible Equipment Disposal
If required, we can remove and recycle old, unused machinery, handling the scrap disposal process responsibly.

How It Works
- Initial Consultation & Planning
We start with a detailed consultation to understand your specific requirements. If the move is internal, we assess site conditions to ensure the safest, most efficient repositioning plan. If the move is between sites, we coordinate the entire process, including disassembly, transport, and installation.
- Dismantling & Preparation (If Required)
For larger or more complex machinery, our team can carefully dismantle components for safe transport before repositioning or reassembling them in the new location.
- Transport & Positioning
Using our specialist handling equipment, we safely lift, transport, and precisely position machinery exactly where it’s needed within your facility or at your new location.
- Final Checks & Handover
Once the move is complete, we ensure everything is correctly positioned and ready for final connections and commissioning by your team.
