Looking for an articulating man lift? United Rentals has what you need. Vertical mast boom lifts are a type of aerial work platform that utilize multiple pivot points, referred to as joints or knuckles, on the boom sections to give you length and reach, allowing you up-and-over access, as well as vertical reach. Available in a variety of types and sizes ranging from compact models to standard models, these machines help you tackle any job with efficiency. Mast boom lifts are ideal for use in several applications, including construction, window washing and electrical work as well as many others. These single man boom lifts are suitable for both indoor and outdoor environments, making them incredibly versatile options for maintenance, restoration or installation jobs that a ladder just won’t reach. We carry top manufacturer brands like Genie, JLG, Skyjack and more.  Whether you’re looking for a short-term rental or an option for an extended project, United Rentals has you covered.

FAQs About Vertical Mast Lifts

What is the difference between an articulated man lift and a scissor lift?

• The primary differences between these two types of lifts are that vertical mast lifts are often lighter in weight and offer more range and flexibility because of their articulating arms while scissor lifts are bigger (in weight and height) with a single range of vertical motion, only moving upward and downward.

How much does a vertical mast lift weigh?

• The average weight ranges between 1,000 lbs. and 2,500 lbs. However, the weight of vertical mast lifts often varies depending on the model type.

What does it cost to rent a vertical mast lift?

• Articulating man lift rentals will vary in price depending on the model type and location you rent from. For more information on rental pricing, contact your local United Rentals branch to consult with a specialist.
