TRANSPORT + LIFTING

ONE TEAM FROM SUPPLIER TO SITE.

A swimming pool or spa does not always have a straightforward path to its final position. Fences, buildings, narrow driveways and established gardens can make delivery and placement more involved.

Our HIAB crane trucks and mobile cranes give us different ways to approach the job. We assess the load, lifting distance and available setup area, then work out a practical lifting option for the property.

Whether you are a homeowner, pool supplier, installer or builder, send us the details early so the lift can be coordinated with the rest of the project.

Our HIAB trucks, transport fleet and mobile cranes let us handle collection, delivery and final placement with one coordinated team.

Behind a fence or over a house? We'll assess the access and reach, then work out the right lifting setup for your property.

ACCESS + REACH + LIFT PLANNING

BEHIND THE HOUSE? OVER THE FENCE? LET'S LOOK AT THE SITE.

The pool's weight is only one part of choosing the crane. The distance from the crane to the final position, site access, ground conditions and surrounding buildings all affect the setup.

A HIAB may suit a pool or spa that can be placed within its working reach. Where greater reach or a different setup is needed, we can assess a mobile crane or other lifting option.

For lifts over a building or into a confined backyard, photos, a site plan or a site visit help us establish what is practical before the job is booked.

Send a photo of where the pool is now, where it needs to finish, and the access between them. If you don't know the weight or lifting distance, tell us what you do know.
01 / THE LOAD

SIZE & WEIGHT

The pool or spa dimensions, weight and supplier's lifting information help us select suitable equipment.

02 / THE REACH

LIFTING DISTANCE

The distance between the crane's setup position and the final placement affects available lifting capacity.

03 / THE SITE

ACCESS & SETUP

Driveways, gateways, ground conditions and space for the truck, crane and outriggers need to be considered.

04 / THE POSITION

FINAL PLACEMENT

Tell us about fences, roofs, trees, overhead lines and the position your pool installer needs to reach.

HOW IT WORKS

PLAN THE LIFT. SET UP. PLACE THE POOL.

01

SEND THE DETAILS

Send the site address, pool or spa details, photos of the access and final position, and your preferred date.

02

WE ASSESS THE LIFT

We review the load, reach and setup space. Where needed, we arrange a site visit to assess the options.

03

COORDINATE THE JOB

We discuss the equipment and lifting arrangements so the job can be coordinated with your supplier or installer.

04

LIFT & PLACE

The pool or spa is lifted into the agreed position so your installer can continue with the installation.

COLLECTION, TRANSPORT & PLACEMENT

NEED IT MOVED AS WELL AS LIFTED?

If your pool or spa needs to be collected from a supplier or another property, tell us about both locations. We can assess the transport and lifting requirements together.

Where the load and access suit our equipment, Banks can coordinate collection, delivery and final crane placement through one team.

For spa relocations, send photos of the existing position as well as the destination. Access at the pickup can be just as important as access at the new site.

Already have delivery arranged? We can assess the lifting component and coordinate placement with your delivery team.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

SWIMMING POOL & SPA LIFTING FAQ.

A FEW COMMON QUESTIONS

POOL LIFTING FAQ.

Can you lift a swimming pool or spa over a house?
Potentially. We need to assess the pool's weight and dimensions, building height, lifting distance and where the crane can set up. Send photos or a site plan so we can work out whether the lift is practical and which equipment is suitable.
Do I need a HIAB or a mobile crane for my pool?
That depends on the load, reach and available setup space. A HIAB may suit a pool or spa that can be placed within its working range. A mobile crane may be more suitable where additional reach or a different setup is needed. Our team can assess the options for your site.
Can you move a spa pool from one property to another?
We can assess collection, transport and placement for spa pool relocations. Send the pickup and delivery addresses, spa dimensions and weight if known, and photos of the access at both properties.
What information do you need for a pool-lifting quote?
The site address, pool or spa dimensions and weight if known, current and final positions, access photos and preferred date are useful starting points. Include supplier lifting information or a site plan if you have them. If you don't know the weight or reach, send the information you do have.
Can you lift into a backyard with limited access?
We can assess difficult-access properties and consider HIAB, mobile or compact crane options. The lifting solution depends on the load, available crane position, ground conditions, reach and nearby obstructions. A site visit may be useful.
Do you provide pool lifting in Wellington, Kāpiti and Palmerston North?
Banks provides crane, HIAB and transport support across Wellington, Kāpiti Coast, Porirua, Hutt Valley, Palmerston North and Manawatū. Send your pool or spa details and job location so we can discuss the right setup and availability.
What affects the cost of a swimming pool or spa lift?
The equipment required, travel, time on site, lifting distance, access, transport and any additional planning all affect the quote. We price the lifting requirements for your particular load and property.
Does Banks install and connect the pool?
Our role on this service is lifting, transport where arranged, and placement. Coordinate the base, installation, plumbing and electrical work with your pool supplier or installer, and tell us when the site will be ready for the lift.
Who can deliver and lift my pool or spa into position?
Banks Crane and Transport can collect your swimming pool or spa from the supplier, transport it and lift it into position across Wellington, Kāpiti and Palmerston North.
Can you lift over a house or fence?
We can assess the options. The right crane depends on the pool's weight, lifting distance and available setup space.
What do you need for a quote?
Supplier specifications, collection and delivery addresses, your preferred date, and photos of the property access and placement area.
