Reaching high places can be challenging, but whether you find yourself hanging siding on a construction site, changing light bulbs in a warehouse, or performing outdoor utility work, aerial lifts can help you reach areas that would otherwise be impossible to get to. OSHA defines an aerial lift as any vehicle-mounted device, telescoping or articulating, or both, which is used to position personnel. They are mobile and can usually be set up and operated by one person.
