All prices: guide values, as of 08/2026. Prices excl. VAT. Transport, insurance and accessories extra.

Rental period and volume discounts

The longer the rental period, the lower the effective daily rate. Weekly rental costs about 4-5 times the daily rate (instead of 7 times), monthly rental 12-15 times. For projects of more than 4 weeks, a direct quote from the rental company pays off.

Transport and delivery distance

Transport is not included in the daily prices above. Luibl Rental delivers with its own low-loaders throughout Belgium - transport costs depend on the delivery distance and machine class. For specific transport costs: send an enquiry.

Season and availability

In high summer (June-August) and when many projects coincide, the availability of certain classes can be limited. Booking early secures availability and stable terms.

Insurance and accessories

Luibl Rental machines are delivered with a valid periodic inspection. Rental damage insurance is recommended to cover damage to the rented machine - the cost varies with the scope of cover. Accessories (basket extensions, additional mounting plates, trailers for truck-mounted platforms) can be booked in addition, subject to availability.

Example 1: facade cleaning, residential building, 3 storeys

• Platform: articulating boom lift 16 m
• Rental period: 5 days
• Estimated rental cost: approx. €900-1,400 (transport not included)

Example 2: roof work on a commercial building, outdoor use

• Platform: telescopic boom lift 28 m (diesel)
• Rental period: 3 weeks
• Estimated rental cost: approx. €3,800-6,000 (transport not included)

Example 3: hall maintenance, cramped interior, several working levels

• Estimated rental cost: approx. €1,800-3,000 (transport not included)

All examples are guide calculations without guarantee.

When comparing rental quotes, check the following points:

• Is transport included in both quotes or charged separately?
• Is there an excess for damage - or is insurance included?
• What minimum rental period applies?
• Is the periodic inspection up to date and is the inspection report available?
• When is the return, and are there costs for late collection?
• Is the machine Stage V compliant (relevant for low-emission zones)?

Buying an aerial work platform typically pays for itself from approx. 150-250 days of use per year - depending on machine class and purchase price. For most trade and construction businesses that do not need a platform permanently, renting is the more economical solution: no capital tied up, no inspection and maintenance costs, no storage.

Luibl Rental delivers all types of aerial work platforms throughout Belgium - by low-loader from its own fleet to your site, without external hauliers. Periodically inspected machines with complete documentation.
