LGH Rentals
No, LGH does not provide on-site setup or installation services for rented equipment. Our team supplies certified, ready-to-use lifting and rigging gear, along with expert guidance to help you choose the right equipment for your job. Once delivered, all setup, installation, and operation must be handled by qualified personnel at your site in accordance with ASME and manufacturer guidelines.
Yes, LGH can sell new equipment, but we do not sell items from our rental fleet. For most products, we act as a non-stocking distributor, meaning the equipment ships directly from the manufacturer and we provide pricing and lead time. We also stock and sell BETA MAX hoists as the premier distributor in North America.
The minimum rental duration is one week. After the first week, equipment can typically be kept on rent for as long as you need and will be billed at the standard weekly rate. After 7 days, the cost is prorated for a single day thereafter.
Quoted prices are effective for 30 days from the quote date.
The quoted amount will be based on the duration that you provide at the time of requesting your quote.
In some cases, it may be necessary for LGH to substitute an item quoted for a comparable item. Please notify us if substitutions are not permitted.
A valid exam/test certificate will be emailed automatically to the email address on file for the order at the time that your order is filled by our rental center.
Order and Delivery
You can place an order by browsing our equipment online, adding the items you need to your basket, and submitting your details at checkout. Once we receive your request, an LGH representative will review it, confirm availability, and finalize your rental with you. If you need help choosing the right rigging or lifting gear, you can also contact us directly for expert support.
Orders that require this request will need to go through our rental desk.
To return equipment, contact our Rental Desk at Rentals@RentLGH.com to confirm your off-rent date. We’ll then issue a collection note with all pickup details. Please repackage the equipment following our return guidelines and the checklist provided at off-rent to ensure everything is ready for transport.
If any items are missing or damaged, our team will notify you within five days of the equipment being returned, and additional charges may apply.
You will be able to make a change or cancel an order up to 1 working day before dispatch by calling our rental desk on 800-878-7305.
If an order has been cancelled with less than 1 working day’s notice, you may incur additional cancellation costs.
Our delivery costs are based on the weight and dimension of the equipment ordered and the distance from our depot to your delivery address.
Any lost equipment will be charged at the full replacement cost, and in addition, all rental fees accrued to date must be paid in full.
