Kirwan Haulage provides HiAb crane hire in Cork, offering specialist lifting and transport solutions to businesses across Cork City and county. Our crane-mounted trucks travel from Mountrath via the M8 motorway, reaching Cork in approximately 2 hours 30 minutes. We serve pharmaceutical plants on the Little Island corridor, manufacturing facilities in Ringaskiddy, construction sites throughout the city, and industrial operations across East and North Cork.
Cork's pharmaceutical and medical device sector is one of our most important client bases for HiAb services. Facilities operated by companies like Pfizer, Stryker, and Johnson & Johnson regularly need heavy production equipment moved into cleanroom environments, through reinforced doorways, and positioned on vibration-damped floors with millimetre precision. Our HiAb 142 and HiAb 202 crane trucks handle these delicate operations with the kind of control that standard cranes cannot match, and our drivers are experienced in working within the strict health and safety protocols of pharmaceutical sites.
The construction sector in Cork City has been booming, with major residential, commercial, and infrastructure projects creating constant demand for crane-assisted deliveries. Precast concrete panels, structural steel, modular building units, and HVAC equipment all need to be lifted and placed on site, often in tight urban locations where a tower crane would be impractical or too expensive. Kirwan's HiAb trucks provide a cost-effective alternative, combining delivery and lifting in a single operation.
Port of Cork at Ringaskiddy generates additional demand for HiAb services, with heavy cargo containers and industrial equipment requiring crane-assisted handling on arrival. Our proximity via the M8 and our familiarity with port logistics make Kirwan a preferred HiAb provider for importers operating through Cork. Every HiAb hire booking includes a detailed lift plan, risk assessment, and operator certification - all backed by our ISO 45001 safety management system.
