FAQs
- How much does MEWP cost for a team in North-East Scotland?
- Day rates for MEWP typically fall inside the band the course brief lists. Cohort size, novice/refresher split and travel are the main drivers — we send a fixed price, not a day rate × headcount.
- Is it worth running a cohort for 1–2 operators?
- Yes — small cohorts work in North-East Scotland because travel from Aboyne is short. We don't charge a minimum-headcount premium.
- Is MEWP accredited?
- Yes — accredited certificates aligned with Work at Height Regulations 2005 and LOLER 1998 are issued to successful candidates.
- Is this course right for fleet managers?
- It's built for that buyer profile. The paperwork and cohorting are tuned to what fleet managers are usually measured on.
- What if we need to rebook?
- We hold dates flexibly. If site conditions change, we move the cohort — there's no rebooking fee for genuine site reasons.
