Aerial platforms, also commonly referred to as cherry pickers or mobile elevating work platforms (MEWPs), are used in a broad range of industries to enable individuals and equipment to temporarily access areas that are inaccessible – due to height. From construction sites to office buildings, aerial platforms have a number of applications.
In this post, the Cherry Picker team takes a look at four common applications of aerial platforms. Read below to learn more about aerial platform hire, and if you’d like to make an inquiry into hiring one of Cherry Picker’s boom lifts or scissor lifts, then please do not hesitate to get in touch with us today.

Construction
Aerial platforms are commonly used in the construction industry by companies of all sizes and scales. Whether it’s a large-scale commercial construction project, or a smaller-scale residential build, hiring an aerial platform is a smart choice. It will allow you to reach big heights, which is especially important if you are working on a tall building development. If you’re working up high, having an aerial lift will ensure that your workers can operate smoothly and comfortably, with better safety and security too.
Maintenance
The maintenance industry is another sector that uses aerial platforms on a regular basis. Again, this is because of the impressive ease at which an aerial platform allows individuals and equipment to reach large heights. Specific applications in maintenance include ship maintenance, and at large industrial plants where maintenance workers need to access high locations for example, an annual safety inspection or repair job. If your maintenance company needs reliability, then an aerial platform from Cherry Picker is a great choice.
Cleaning
What’s more, aerial platforms are popular in the cleaning industry. Many cleaning companies hire an aerial platform to make their external and internal cleaning easier. Whether it’s cleaning windows on a high-rise building, cleaning a statue, or accessing a roof to clean, an aerial platform can be utilised in a myriad of ways by a cleaning company.
Painting
Finally, a fourth industry where aerial platforms are highly popular is the painting industry. Painting companies usually need to access high parts of buildings, to carefully oversee painting at awkward heights and levels. An aerial lift will provide optimum safety, reliability and efficiency – helping painters to seamlessly paint high walls and ensure a high-quality painting finish.
