A cherry picker (also known as a boom lift, man lift, basket crane or hydra-ladder in the UK) is a type of aerial work platform that consists of a platform or bucket at the end of the hydraulic lifting system. A cherry picker is often mounted on the back of a large vehicle such as a truck (in which case it may also be called a bucket truck), or sometimes on a stand-alone trailer or self-moving platform. The bucket is designed for a single person to stand in and work from. Often a duplicate set of controls used to manipulate the position of the bucket will be available to the person in the bucket, allowing that person to position himself. The lifting arms of some modern cherry pickers are capable of telescoping to adjust the reach of the device.

Cherry pickers in the UK were originally designed for use in orchards (though not just cherry orchards) where they are still heavily used. Cherry Picker lets the person pick fruit high in a tree with relative ease. Similar devices, also known as 'cherry pickers', are used to service cable television, telephone and electrical equipment on utility poles. Some fire trucks have a cherry picker (known as a snorkel) instead of a ladder, and some window cleaners also use them. Cherry pickers are also used in the UK for mining, exterior painting, construction, and sometimes by arborists to work safely on otherwise un-climbable trees.

Cherry pickers are often required for many business operations in the UK. There are some factors that you must take into consideration before selecting an appropriate cherry picker suited to your needs. These factors include:

  • Safety of the cherry picker
  • Length of the cherry picker
  • The amount of load that the cherry picker can hold
  • Telescopic movement and adjustment
  • Availability of automatic safety controls
  • Availability of duplicate controls in basket for picker operator
