A- SCAFFOLDING FOR RENT
1- What is Rental Scaffolding?
It means the use of all kinds of facade and under formwork scaffolding systems for a certain period of time for a fee within the framework of a contract without being purchased. It is a very common system. It is an alternative system to buying and selling zero or second hand scaffolding. There are companies that only do rental scaffolding business, as well as those that combine both new zero scaffolding manufacturing, 2nd hand scaffolding trading and rental services.
2- Is scaffolding installation and dismantling included in the rental?
This situation varies according to the agreement and rental scaffolding companies. If installation and dismantling are included in the agreement, the price of scaffolding rental increases significantly. Those who want to work with a single company can agree with the same company for both rental and installation / dismantling.
3- Are there companies that only provide scaffolding installation and dismantling services?
Yes, there are. There are companies throughout Turkey where you can have your own scaffolding or scaffolding rented from another company installed and dismantled when you are done. It is necessary to pay attention to this here, you can check whether you are advantageous when you have your scaffolding erection / dismantling work done by a 3rd company by getting a price including and excluding installation / dismantling from the company you will rent scaffolding from. Perhaps you can avoid unnecessary extra payments. You can also work with a separate company for scaffolding erection and a separate company for scaffolding dismantling. The price of scaffolding erection service is approximately 1.5 times the price of scaffolding dismantling service.
B- ADVANTAGES/DISADVANTAGES OF SCAFFOLDING FOR HIRE
1- What are the advantages of rental scaffolding?
You will encounter a more favourable cost in the short term. You can supply more quickly.
2- What are the disadvantages of rental scaffolding?
In the long run, you will be disadvantaged in terms of cost compared to purchasing. You may encounter very worn products.
3- How long does it take to install rental scaffolding?
This is a situation that varies according to the building where the scaffolding will be installed and according to the scaffolding installation scheme prepared. Separate time should be asked for each building. Before the scaffolding is installed in corporate companies, it must be coordinated with the occupational safety unit, how the scaffolding will be installed should be agreed on the plan and then the scaffolding should be installed. Otherwise, the scaffolding that has been installed may need to be completely dismantled and reinstalled.
4- What happens if the scaffolding parts I rented are lost?
After the discovery, your quantities are determined and a contract is prepared according to these determined quantities. Based on this contract, scaffolding hire companies collect the zero price of that product from you for products that are lost or deformed in a way that cannot be used. We can say this in terms of smiling a little; In fact, every scaffolding renter has bought some scaffolding without realising it.
5- Is it right to buy scaffolding for hire from the owner?
Instead of companies that professionally hire scaffolding, you may experience problems in amateurish rentals from individuals who have idle scaffolding in order to cost cheaper, that is, from the owner. First of all, you cannot invoice this work. Due to this unofficial rental, you may get into big trouble in a serious work accident that may be caused by scaffolding.
C- RENTAL SCAFFOLDING PRICE
1- What is the price of scaffolding m² for rent?
This price varies in every province of Turkey. The price of scaffolding for rent varies according to the type of scaffolding you will rent. There are different pricing for facade scaffolds, different pricing for under mould scaffolds and different fees. You should decide on the system and invite rental companies for discovery. Galvanised scaffolding m² rent is different, painted scaffolding m2 price is different.
However, we can say that for 2023; Exterior Scaffolding rental m² prices do not fall below 25TL + VAT, including full security, cross and heel (heel). This 25TL + VAT is only the rental price of the scaffolding.
If you want to include installation and dismantling, the rental scaffolding m2 price does not fall below 50TL + VAT.
In other words, the price of rental scaffolding m² institution price 15TL + VAT and rental scaffolding dismantling m2 price 10TL + VAT, total = scaffolding installation and dismantling price 25TL + VAT. (minimum)
(prices are approximate to give an idea)
2- Are daily scaffolding hire prices cheap?
Regardless of the type, the price increases proportionally as the rental period shortens for all kinds of scaffolding systems. Especially daily rental scaffolding definitely means a lot of money out of your pocket. But sometimes you may really have to rent scaffolding for only one day's work. You will be advantageous compared to purchasing and disadvantageous compared to monthly rental.
3- Painted or Galvanised scaffolding should be rented?
Painted scaffolds are now considered inappropriate in the inspections carried out and the constructions can be sealed. Although painted scaffolds continue to be rented in places where there is no inspection, you should prefer hot-dip galvanised scaffolding systems to avoid problems.
4- Can scaffolding be installed with missing materials?
You should be very careful about this issue. Yes, a scaffolding system can be installed with missing materials and unfortunately it is being installed, but this does not mean that it is safe. When purchasing and renting, you should prefer products that are calculated and quantified in accordance with TSE standards. Because people entrust their lives to scaffolding systems.
5- Are rental safety scaffolds inspected by TSE?
TSE only inspects certified manufacturers to see if they produce scaffolding in accordance with the standards. However, although these scaffolds are used many times by the renters, it is not currently inspected whether wear or maintenance checks are carried out. In our opinion, this issue is a priority issue that should be subject to inspection.
D- SCAFFOLDING LEASE AGREEMENT
1- Can I find an example of a Scaffolding Hire Agreement?
Yes, and the issue you should pay the most attention to is this contract you sign when renting a scaffolding with security. Here > You can find a Sample Scaffolding Hire Agreement. What is presented here is just a sample prepared to give you an idea. Each company can adjust the terms of this contract according to itself.
2- Can the rented scaffolds be rented to someone else?
Renting the rented scaffolds to 3rd parties is generally prevented by the contracts you have made. We can say that if you do such a thing, you will have a lot of headaches. Only the rental companies do this with other rental companies they have agreed with and you will not be aware of this situation.
3- Is periodic control and maintenance of scaffolds important?
You should definitely ask whether the periodic maintenance of the scaffolds you rent is carried out. Periodic maintenance of scaffolding systems should be carried out every 6 months. (In the Regulation on Health and Safety Conditions in the Use of Work Equipment, facade scaffolds used in construction are also included in the scope of periodic control under the title of "Building Scaffolds"). During the inspections, if it is time for periodic inspection and maintenance, the scaffolds you rent may cost you an extra cost that you have never calculated. You should put this issue as a separate clause in the contract.
4- Who pays for the transport of the materials you rent?
The shipping cost is usually calculated as included in the rental service fee. However, in order not to encounter a surprise, this situation should be clearly discussed during the rental and the contract should be prepared accordingly. When renting or selling in big cities, companies sometimes write the intercity transport price as local transport. For this reason, your out-of-town purchases in your rental and purchases can sometimes be cheaper than your in-city purchases in terms of transport cost.
5- Things to consider for rental scaffolding systems;
In the Facade Scaffolding Checklist Guide prepared by the Ministry of Family, Labour and Social Services, General Directorate of Occupational Health and Safety, there is also the following information in the form of advice.
If the scaffolding to be used is to be rented; Are the features that the scaffolding should have, considering the working conditions and the work done (heavy work, etc.), transferred to the relevant company (is it specified in the rental scaffolding contract)?
Have criteria such as the condition of the facade surface, loads on the scaffold and weather conditions been taken into consideration in the supply of scaffolding elements and scaffolding-related parts and connections (number, capacity, etc.)?
Has technical information about the installation such as scaffolding anchorage points, placement points of cross members etc. been obtained from the hired company?
Considering the adequacy of the rented scaffolding materials, is scaffolding in accordance with the standards (TS EN 12810-1) provided from the relevant company?

2- Do Scaffolding Rental Companies rent scaffolding outside the province?
Yes. Scaffolding rental companies that do the scaffolding rental business professionally are not limited to the province where they are located and can rent scaffolding anywhere in Turkey. However, of course, the rentals made outside the province are for large-scale works on the basis of lorries or trucks. As we mentioned above, sometimes the cost of transport is appropriate in the city for rentals and purchases made outside the province.
Rental Scaffolding service seems to be one of the developing sectors for our country in the coming years. However, there is a big financial burden waiting for companies that have been providing scaffolding rental services in this sector for years. Rental Scaffolders need to completely change the scaffolding equipment they have developed and reproduced for years and switch to secure scaffolding systems. This is a situation that will both take time and require very large investments. Because TSE certified new scaffolding systems have to be hot dip galvanised.
In terms of rental scaffolding companies, this situation both makes the existing painted scaffolds unusable and increases the price of new galvanised scaffolding systems. As a result, scaffolding rental companies have taken this cost into consideration and the fuse of a great change in Turkey was ignited in 2015. Nowadays, as we enter the 100th anniversary of our Republic, a change in mentality has begun to be observed and consumers who are better equipped and more conscious about occupational safety have emerged.
Safety Scaffolding Hire
With the transition to Safe Scaffolding Systems, scaffolding prices have increased by almost 50% as a result of the improvements made in scaffolding systems, which is directly reflected in scaffolding rental prices. However, it is still advantageous to rent scaffolding for short-term use.
When it comes to long-term scaffolding needs, the option of purchasing new scaffolding becomes more advantageous instead of renting scaffolding.
In other words, if you think whether it makes sense to buy scaffolding or rent it, the answer to this is that it makes sense to rent scaffolding for short-term use as always, while it makes sense to buy scaffolding for long-term continuous use. Rental Scaffolding Prices are advantageous than buying in the short term.
We wrote our article above on the most common exterior scaffolding systems in rental scaffolding systems. However, the term 'scaffolding for rent' covers much wider meanings. These are listed below;

Plywood, H20 Timber Beam, Industrial formwork systems, sheet metal panels ... etc. In other words, everything you will need in the rough construction phase in the construction sector is actually supplied by rental scaffolding companies.
In order not to have problems after increasing occupational safety inspections, we recommend that you prefer those with a more corporate structure among the rental scaffolding companies. There are many advertisements on the internet in the form of scaffolding for rent from the owner, you should research the advertisers well. Scaffolding for rent service is not provided in our company centre for the time being.
Scaffolding rentals are made within a contract. This contract is called rental scaffolding contract. And each company starts to provide rental scaffolding service after mutually signing this contract, which it has prepared with its own specific articles.
