A cherry picker, or boom lift, is a versatile piece of equipment used to safely elevate people and tools to high or hard-to-reach areas. Here’s why you may need one:

1. Access High Areas: Ideal for reaching tall buildings, rooftops, and utility poles.
2. Safety: More stable and secure than ladders or scaffolding.
3. Efficiency: Quick setup and movement, increasing productivity.
4. Flexibility: Can extend and maneuver over obstacles for various tasks.
5. Heavy Lifting: Some models carry tools or materials to elevated areas.
6. Versatility: Used in construction, maintenance, landscaping, and more.
7. Cost-Effective: Renting is often cheaper than other options for short-term tasks.

Common uses include building maintenance, tree trimming, utility work, and event production.
