Frequently Asked Questions
They are the same thing. "Elevated Work Platform" (EWP) is the technical and industry term — it is what the Australian Standard (AS2550.10:2006) refers to and what councils, builders, and electricians use on safety paperwork. "Cherry picker" is the common name. Whether you ask us for a cherry picker, an EWP, a boom lift, or a knuckle boom, we will match you with the right machine for the job.
Our truck-mounted EWP fleet covers 8 metres up to 42 metres of working height. The right size depends on what you are reaching — for residential gutters, fascia, and lower tree work, a 12-18m machine is usually plenty. For commercial signage, multi-storey facades, and tall pine removal, we have 28m and 42m reach options. Tell us the job and we will pick the right unit.
Yes. Our insulated work platforms meet the electrical and safety guidelines required for live-line proximity work. This matters for tree work near overhead power, electrical maintenance, and any job within the "no-go zone" of energised lines. If your job is anywhere near power, ask for the insulated unit specifically when you book.
Both. Dry hire means we deliver the machine and a competent operator from your team runs it (the operator must hold a current EWPA Yellow Card or equivalent ticket). Wet hire means we send the EWP with one of our qualified operators — you tell us what needs to happen and we do it. Most tree jobs and one-off commercial jobs are wet hire; building sites that have their own ticketed operator usually go dry hire.
We are accredited to AS2550.10:2006 — the Australian Standard for Elevated Work Platforms covering safe use, inspection, and maintenance. All our operators hold current EWPA Yellow Card / High Risk Work Licences as required, and we are fully insured (public liability and equipment).
Pricing depends on three things: machine size (the higher the reach, the higher the rate), hire type (dry hire is cheaper than wet hire because we provide labour with wet), and duration (half-day, full-day, and weekly rates available). Call 1800 GO TREES with the job details — height required, dry or wet, and your suburb — and we will give you a price on the spot.
We are based in Morwell and cover the full Latrobe Valley (Traralgon, Morwell, Moe, Newborough, Churchill), Wellington Shire (Sale, Maffra, Heyfield, Stratford, Yarram), Baw Baw Shire (Warragul, Drouin, Trafalgar), South Gippsland (Leongatha, Foster, Korumburra), and Bass Coast. For larger Melbourne jobs we travel — ask when you book.
Often yes. We carry multiple EWP units so same-day or next-day hire is frequently possible, especially for the smaller reach machines (8-18m). For the larger 28m and 42m units we recommend a few days lead time. Storm-damage emergency work always gets priority — call us straight away.
