Which working height do you need?

The working height is the platform height plus roughly 2 metres of reach height for an average adult. Our scaffolds are available from 4.2 to 14.2 metres working height, in steps of 1 metre. A simple rule of thumb: reckon on roughly 2.5 to 3 metres per storey of a home, and add the reach height on top.

Not sure which height you need? Click on a height for an explanation of platform height, suitable applications and the matching model, or use the configurator for automatic advice.

Working height per floor

If you would rather start from the floor you need to work on instead of an exact number of metres, use the overview below as a guideline. The exact height required depends on the floor height of your specific home or building.

Hiring a scaffold with delivery in Rotterdam

Delivery and collection are always included together in one fixed price of €150 — no separate charge for collection afterwards. Our drivers run routes across the whole of the Netherlands every day, so even outside the Randstad the scaffold is usually on site quickly.

How does delivery work?

When booking, you choose your preferred delivery date. Our driver brings the scaffold to the address you provide, fully complete and including all the parts you need to assemble it yourself.

How quickly is it delivered?

In many cases we deliver within 24 hours of booking in Rotterdam. If it is busy or you have a specific preference, you simply choose a later date in the configurator.

At what time is it delivered?

We work with a delivery day rather than an exact time in advance. As soon as that day’s route is known, you can ask us for the expected arrival time.

Does someone need to be present at delivery?

It is preferable for someone to be present to confirm the delivery and to pass on any wishes about placement, but by arrangement it is also possible to leave the scaffold at an agreed spot.

Where do you place the scaffold?

We place the scaffold at the location you specify when booking: on the street, driveway, garden or yard. Please ensure a flat, accessible surface so the scaffold can be set down straight away.

How does collection after the hire period work?

On the agreed collection date we collect the scaffold again in full. You do not have to dismantle it into loose parts yourself; follow the manual to set it up ready and stable.

What if I finish earlier than planned?

Get in touch by phone or WhatsApp; where possible we will try to collect earlier, although depending on the schedule this cannot always be done on the same day.

How large is the delivery area?

We deliver to all twelve provinces of the Netherlands. The delivery price is set per province and you see it in advance in the configurator, so there is never a surprise afterwards.

What happens in bad weather on the delivery day?

In a storm or very heavy rain the schedule may shift by arrangement, particularly if it is not responsible to assemble safely at that moment. We then contact you ourselves to agree an alternative date.

Can I still change the delivery date after booking?

Yes, changes are possible as long as the schedule allows. Please get in touch as soon as possible by phone or WhatsApp, preferably a few days before the original date.

How does the deposit work?

In addition to the hire price, you pay a deposit when booking. This is standard when hiring professional equipment and, with us, works transparently and quickly.

Why do you ask for a deposit?

Unfortunately, our mobile scaffolds are prone to theft and represent a considerable value. The deposit covers this risk and is fully refunded as soon as the scaffold comes back complete and undamaged.

How much is the deposit?

The amount of the deposit depends on the model and the working height; the higher the scaffold, the higher the deposit. You can see the exact amount per variant in the configurator and on the product page.

When do I get the deposit back?

Within 1 working day after the scaffold has been collected or returned complete and undamaged, we refund the deposit to your account.

How do I pay the deposit?

The deposit is paid together with the hire price when completing your booking, via the same online payment.

What if the scaffold comes back damaged?

In the case of damage that does not fall under normal signs of use, part of the deposit is withheld in consultation to cover the repair costs. With a complete, undamaged return you receive the full amount back.

Which payment methods do you accept?

You can pay online via the common payment methods in the configurator. For business customers and HOAs, payment on invoice is also possible in consultation, with the same deposit arrangement.

Can the HOA or the company be invoiced separately?

Yes, on request we make out the invoice in the name of the HOA, the company or the client, including VAT specification, even if the booking is made by an individual resident or employee.

Working safely on a mobile scaffold

A mobile scaffold is only safe if it is assembled and used correctly. Our scaffolds meet the standard, but the user remains responsible for correct assembly and use.

Correctly assembled: guardrails, locked wheels and stabilisers in place

Even at greater working heights, working safely remains the priority

What is EN 1004?

EN 1004 is the European standard for mobile scaffolds made from prefabricated elements. Scaffolds that meet this standard are tested for stability, material strength and a safe assembly sequence. The RS Tower 5 series from Altrex meets this standard.

How do I assemble a mobile scaffold safely?

Always follow the supplied manual and assemble the scaffold in the prescribed sequence, from the bottom up, with each floor fully locked before you build any further.

What should I check before use?

Check that all wheels are on the brake, that the stabilisers are correctly folded out and secured, and that all guardrails are in place before you step onto the platform.

What kind of surface do I need?

A mobile scaffold must stand on a flat, firm surface. On soft ground such as grass we recommend driving plates or scaffold pads under the wheels.

Am I allowed to work in strong wind?

No, we advise against working at wind force 6 or higher, certainly not at greater working heights.

How much weight is allowed on the platform?

Our scaffolds are designed for normal use by one to two people with hand tools and materials; consult the manual for the exact maximum weight per model.

Can I get professional advice on the right height?

Yes, use the configurator for automatic advice, or get in touch by phone or WhatsApp for personal advice about your specific situation.

How do I keep the surroundings safe during use?

Always put the wheels on the brake as soon as the scaffold is in place, and keep children and pets away from an assembled scaffold. Do not leave loose tools on the guardrail, but keep them in a tool bag.

Can a mobile scaffold stand close to electricity cables?

Always keep sufficient distance from overhead electricity cables or lines. If you are unsure about the safe distance for your job, get in touch with us beforehand for advice.

Can I use the scaffold in frost or slippery conditions?

In frost, black ice or on a wet, slippery surface we advise against using the scaffold until the surface and the platform are dry and safe to walk on again.

Rotterdam in focus: common situations

Wederopbouwarchitectuur na het bombardement

Rotterdam werd bij het bombardement van mei 1940 grotendeels verwoest en daarna herbouwd volgens moderne, functionele stedenbouwkundige principes. Bekende voorbeelden zijn de Lijnbaan, een van de eerste voetgangerswinkelgebieden van Europa, en het Groothandelsgebouw. Veel woningen in het centrum en omliggende wijken dateren uit deze wederopbouwperiode: functionele portiekflats en galerijwoningen uit de jaren '50 en '60, vaak met platte daken en bakstenen gevels.

Voor onderhoud aan deze wederopbouwwoningen, zoals gevelreiniging, kozijnschilderwerk of het plaatsen van zonnepanelen op de platte daken, huren particulieren en VvE's regelmatig een rolsteiger. Doordat veel van deze wijken planmatig en relatief ruim zijn opgezet, is er meestal voldoende plek voor zowel de RS51 als de bredere RS52.

Overgebleven vooroorlogse wijken: Delfshaven en Kralingen

Niet heel Rotterdam werd bij het bombardement verwoest: wijken als Delfshaven en delen van Kralingen bleven grotendeels behouden en hebben nog altijd een historisch karakter, met oudere, smallere bebouwing en in Delfshaven ook monumentale panden rond de historische haven. In Kralingen staan daarnaast statige jaren '20- en '30-villa's, met name rond de Kralingse Plas.

Bij werk aan deze oudere, vaak smallere panden is de compacte RS51 een veelgekozen model, terwijl bij de ruimere villa's in Kralingen ook regelmatig voor de RS52 wordt gekozen vanwege de extra stabiliteit bij gevel- en dakwerk op grotere hoogte.

Naoorlogse tuinsteden en hoogbouw

Wijken als Alexanderpolder, Ommoord en Zuidwijk zijn in de jaren '50 tot '70 gebouwd als ruim opgezette tuinsteden en hoogbouwwijken, met veel portiek- en galerijflats in beheer bij VvE's. Dit type bebouwing vraagt met regelmaat onderhoud: gevelrenovatie, het vervangen van dakgoten en periodiek schilderwerk aan kozijnen en balkons komen hier veel voor.

Voor deze VvE-onderhoudsklussen, vaak op grotere werkhoogte vanwege de hoogbouw, huren beheerders en onderhoudsbedrijven bij ons regelmatig een RS51 of RS52 tot 14,2 meter werkhoogte, afhankelijk van de gewenste stabiliteit en de beschikbare ruimte rond het gebouw.

Moderne skyline en nieuwbouw op de Kop van Zuid

Rotterdam heeft de afgelopen decennia een uitgesproken moderne skyline ontwikkeld, met de Kop van Zuid en de Wilhelminapier als bekende voorbeelden van grootschalige nieuwbouw met moderne architectuur. In dit soort recente complexen gaat het bij steigerverhuur vaker om installatiewerk, het plaatsen van zonnepanelen op platte daken en periodiek onderhoud aan relatief nieuwe gevels.

Door de ruimere stedenbouwkundige opzet van deze nieuwere wijken is er doorgaans voldoende ruimte om zowel de RS51 als de RS52 te plaatsen, en wordt voor kortere installatieklussen op platte daken ook regelmatig de MiTower gehuurd.

Havengebied en bedrijventerreinen

Rotterdam heeft de grootste haven van Europa en een uitgebreid netwerk van bedrijventerreinen en industriegebieden rond de stad. Bedrijven in en rond deze gebieden huren bij ons geregeld steigers voor onderhoud aan bedrijfsgevels en -daken, installatiewerk en het plaatsen van zonnepanelen op bedrijfspanden. Daarnaast werken we in de stad samen met schildersbedrijven die zowel particuliere als zakelijke opdrachten uitvoeren.

Voor bedrijven met terugkerende onderhoudsbehoefte, bijvoorbeeld voor periodiek gevelonderhoud van bedrijfspanden, denken we graag mee over een praktische, terugkerende huuroplossing in plaats van eenmalige verhuur.

Bezorgen en werken in Rotterdam

Rotterdam combineert brede, planmatig aangelegde straten in de wederopbouwwijken met smallere, historische straten in wijken als Delfshaven. Bij het inplannen van bezorging houden we rekening met de specifieke situatie: in de ruimere wijken is plaatsing meestal eenvoudig, terwijl we in dichter bebouwde of historische straten vooraf even afstemmen over de beste plek.

Ook rond de haven en bedrijventerreinen bezorgen en halen we steigers regelmatig op, inclusief afstemming over toegang en eventuele terreinregels van het bedrijf waar we leveren.

Duurzaamheid en dakrenovatie

Rotterdam investeert actief in de verduurzaming van de woningvoorraad, van naoorlogse portiekflats tot moderne nieuwbouw op de Kop van Zuid. Dit uit zich in een toenemende vraag naar steigers voor het plaatsen van zonnepanelen, isolatiewerk aan gevels en het vernieuwen van dakbedekking, zowel bij particuliere woningen als bij VvE-complexen die als geheel verduurzamen.

Bij grootschalige verduurzamingsprojecten van VvE's, waarbij vaak een heel wooncomplex tegelijk wordt aangepakt, huren onderhoudsbedrijven bij ons regelmatig meerdere steigers tegelijk. We denken in dat soort gevallen graag mee over planning en logistiek, zodat de werkzaamheden efficiënt en met minimale overlast voor bewoners kunnen verlopen.

Feijenoord en Zuid: arbeiderswijken met eigen karakter

Aan de zuidkant van de Maas liggen wijken als Feijenoord, met een geschiedenis als arbeiderswijk rond de haven en scheepvaart. Hier staan smallere straten met portiekwoningen uit het begin van de twintigste eeuw, deels beschadigd geraakt tijdens het bombardement en daarna hersteld of vernieuwd. Rotterdam-Zuid is de afgelopen jaren onderwerp van grootschalige stedelijke vernieuwingsprojecten.

Voor onderhoud aan de vaak smallere portiekwoningen in deze wijken is de RS51 een veelgekozen model, terwijl bij de nieuwbouw- en renovatieprojecten die in het kader van de stedelijke vernieuwing plaatsvinden ook regelmatig grotere hoeveelheden materieel tegelijk worden gehuurd door aannemers.

Bereikbaarheid en venstertijden bij bezorging

In het centrum van Rotterdam en rond de haven gelden op sommige plekken venstertijden of beperkingen voor laden en lossen, vergelijkbaar met andere grote steden. Bij het inplannen van de bezorging houden we hier rekening mee door vooraf de exacte locatie en het gewenste tijdstip met je door te nemen, zodat de steiger zonder gedoe op de juiste plek terechtkomt.

Werk je op een bedrijventerrein of in de haven, dan stemmen we bezorging ook af op eventuele toegangsregels van het terrein zelf, zoals aanmelding bij een poort of specifieke losplekken. Dit voorkomt vertraging op de dag van bezorging en zorgt dat de steiger op tijd klaarstaat voor gebruik.

Kralingse Plas en groene randen van de stad

Rond de Kralingse Plas en in delen van Hillegersberg liggen groenere, ruimer opgezette woonwijken met meer vrijstaande en halfvrijstaande woningen dan in de compacte binnenstad. Voor onderhoud aan deze woningen, met vaak meer ruimte rondom de gevel, kiezen klanten geregeld voor de RS52 vanwege de extra werkruimte en stabiliteit, bijvoorbeeld bij het schilderen van een dakkapel of het vervangen van een dakgoot over de volle breedte van de woning. Ook bij kleinere klussen, zoals het schilderen van een enkel kozijn of het plaatsen van een enkele zonnepaneel-rij, is een steiger vaak veiliger en praktischer dan een ladder, zeker bij werk boven de tweede verdieping.

Schiebroek en Overschie: kleinschaliger wonen

In wijken als Schiebroek en Overschie, aan de rand van de stad, is de bebouwing kleinschaliger dan in de compacte binnenstad, met meer vrijstaande en halfvrijstaande woningen uit de jaren '30 tot '60. Voor onderhoud aan deze woningen kiezen klanten vaak de RS52 vanwege de extra ruimte rondom de gevel.

Frequently asked questions

How quickly can I hire a scaffold in Rotterdam?

In many cases we can deliver the same or the next working day in Rotterdam. Order before 15:00 and delivery the next working day is usually possible. For urgent requests you can let us know by phone or via WhatsApp.

What does it cost to hire a scaffold?

The hire price depends on the model and the working height. For an RS51, reckon on around 12,50 euros per metre per week, with delivery costs and deposit as separate items. See the exact prices in the configurator above.

Is delivery included in the hire price?

No, delivery is calculated separately based on distance and region. The delivery price is clearly shown in advance, with no hidden costs.

Do I need to be home for delivery?

Yes, we ask that someone is present to discuss the placement and to take receipt of the scaffold. This prevents misunderstandings about the desired location.

Do you also assemble the scaffold?

For most orders the scaffold is assembled safely and completely by our fitters in accordance with EN1004. Hire without assembly is also possible in some cases; ask about the options.

How high can a mobile scaffold be assembled?

Our RS51 and RS52 are available up to a working height of 14,2 metres. For greater heights, additional wind load and anchoring requirements apply, which we go through with you in advance.

What is the difference between working height and platform height?

The platform height is the height of the working surface itself. The working height is the platform height plus roughly 2 metres of reach for an average adult. See our knowledge base page for a detailed explanation.

Which scaffold do I need for exterior painting?

For most homes an RS51 or RS52 is suitable, depending on the desired stability and width. Based on your facade height, our configurator gives suitable advice straight away.

Can I also collect the scaffold myself?

Yes, self-collection is possible at our depot and saves delivery costs. Do keep in mind that you need a suitable trailer or van, as the parts are relatively long.

Why do I have to pay a deposit?

The deposit covers any damage or loss of parts during the hire period. On correct and complete return, you get the full deposit back.

How much is the deposit?

The deposit varies per model and hire period and is clearly communicated in advance. See the section about the deposit on this page for the exact amounts per product.

When do I get my deposit back?

After the scaffold has been checked at collection or return, the deposit is usually refunded to your account within a few working days.

Is a mobile scaffold from the DIY store not cheaper?

A DIY-store scaffold may seem cheaper, but often lacks the stability, certification and completeness of a professional Altrex scaffold. See the comparison section above for the details.

Is the scaffold safe for use by a private individual?

Yes, provided it is assembled and used according to the instructions. During assembly our fitters run through a safety check with you, and we always provide instructions on maximum load and wind conditions.

What if it is very windy during my job?

At wind force 6 or higher we advise against working on the scaffold, and it should be anchored or taken down if necessary. We give concrete advice about this during assembly.

Can the scaffold stand on any surface?

The scaffold needs a flat, load-bearing surface. On soft ground, grass or uneven paving we use base plates to distribute the weight properly.

Does the scaffold fit through a narrow gate or passage?

The RS51 is specially designed for narrow passages from around 70 cm. If you are unsure whether the scaffold fits, measure the narrowest passage and consult our team.

Can I hire the scaffold for several weeks?

Yes, hire periods can be flexibly extended. The longer you hire, the more favourable the price per week often works out.

What happens if my job is finished earlier?

You can have it collected earlier than planned. Depending on the remaining hire period and the moment of notification, we settle this where possible.

Do you also deliver to business parks?

Yes, we deliver both to private homes and to business parks, HOA properties and commercial construction. Contact us for bespoke solutions on larger projects.

Can a painting company also hire from you?

Certainly, we regularly work with painting companies and contractors who want to hire equipment rather than buy and maintain it themselves.

Is the MiTower suitable for indoor work?

The MiTower is compact, light and quick to assemble, which makes it suitable for indoor work such as painting ceilings or installation work.

What is the difference between RS51 and RS52?

The RS52 is wider and offers more stability and working space, while the RS51 is more compact and fits better in narrow spaces. See the comparison table above.

Do I need my own tools to assemble it?

No, with guided assembly by our fitters you do not need your own tools. For self-collection and assembly we recommend following the supplied instructions.

Can I book online or do I have to call?

You can book directly online via the configurator on this page. If you prefer personal advice, we are also happy to help you by phone or via WhatsApp.

What if the scaffold gets damaged during the hire period?

Report damage to us as soon as possible. Normal wear and tear falls outside the deposit scheme, but for significant damage part of the deposit may be withheld.

Can I use the same scaffold for several jobs?

Yes, many customers move the scaffold themselves during the hire period to another spot on the same property, as long as this is done safely and according to instructions.

Do you also deliver to an apartment complex?

Yes, we have experience with delivery at apartments and HOA properties, including coordination about communal set-up spots and accessibility.

How many people can work on the scaffold at the same time?

This depends on the model and the maximum load stated in the product specifications. We always provide this at assembly and in the documentation.

Can I have solar panels installed using your scaffold?

Yes, many installers hire a scaffold from us for safe access to the roof when installing or maintaining solar panels.

Do you also offer advice on which scaffold fits best?

Yes, use the configurator for automatic advice based on height and application, or contact us via WhatsApp for personal advice.

How quickly is a room scaffold delivered in Rotterdam?

In many cases we deliver within 24 hours in Rotterdam. When booking you choose your preferred delivery and collection date.

What does delivery cost in Rotterdam?

Rotterdam is in the province of Zuid-Holland. Delivery and collection together cost €150, regardless of the number of hire days.

Can I also collect the scaffold myself instead of having it delivered from Rotterdam?

Yes. You can collect free of charge by appointment at our warehouse at Zeeburgerpad 89, 1019 AD Amsterdam, even if you work in Rotterdam.

What customers say

Our customer rating is the average across all mobile scaffold, room scaffold and MiTower hires that Steigertaxi.nl carries out throughout Noord-Holland, Zuid-Holland, Utrecht and Flevoland. We deliberately do not show separate, individual review quotes per city or per application on this page — we would not be able to substantiate those separately per city or job. Instead we show the honest, verified overall figure that every customer contributes to, regardless of whether the scaffold was used for painting, gutter replacement, facade maintenance or another application.

Fast delivery Customers particularly appreciate the short turnaround between ordering and delivery, often the same or next working day.
Expert assembly Our fitters build the scaffold to EN1004 and walk through the safety checklist with you before leaving.
Clear pricing No surprises afterwards: the hire price, delivery costs and deposit are fixed in advance and always confirmed.
