Celebrating Over 25 Years of Trusted Access Equipment Hire on the Gold Coast
Founded in 1998 by James Manthey, Paradise Tower Hire began with a simple dream: to provide reliable and affordable access equipment hire to local trades and businesses on the Gold Coast. Operating from his own Burleigh Heads property with a modest fleet of truck-mounted cherry pickers, James built the foundation of what would become one of South East Queensland’s most trusted access hire providers.
Fast forward to today, and Paradise Tower Hire has grown into a leading name in elevated work platform (EWP) hire, proudly servicing areas from the Sunshine Coast to Northern NSW, including Brisbane, Ballina, Kingscliff, and Casuarina.
Two Divisions, One Goal: Height Access Made Simple
Our operations now include:
- Paradise Tower Hire – Specialising in truck-mounted cherry pickers.
- Paradise Access Equipment Hire – Offering over 100 units for hire, including one-man lifts, scissor lifts, knuckle booms, and 85’ stick booms.
With such an extensive and modern fleet, we cater to jobs of all sizes—residential, commercial, and industrial.
A Local, Family-Owned Success Story
