// ABOUT US

BUILT TO LIFT.
TRUSTED TO DELIVER.

Consolidated Investments was started in 2016 by two brothers with a passion to be the best at what they do: Wayne van Jaarsveld, who completed his Honours degree in Financial Accounting at the University of Pretoria, and Andre van Jaarsveld, who completed an LLB and BCom Law at the same university.

It began as a small courier venture, delivering parcels, tenders and small packages all over South Africa. From there the business grew into tailor-made heavy lifting, transport and rigging across South Africa and its neighbouring countries.

We are an ISO 9001 certified company and a Level 2 B-BBEE contributor. We take great pride in our craftsmanship and are committed to excellent service, supported by a modern fleet of immaculately maintained cranes, crane trucks and trailers.

Our drivers, crane operators and riggers are renowned and trusted by South Africa's largest and most demanding construction, manufacturing and industrial clients.

// OUR HISTORY

TEN YEARS
OF HARD LIFTS

From a single truck to a national fleet — built one difficult load at a time.

    Crane trucks, mobile cranes, trailers and forklifts join the fleet — run by our own drivers, crane operators and riggers, trained, licensed and trusted on site.

  3. Today

    Still leading the field

    More than a decade later, Consolidated Investments (Pty) Ltd is ISO 9001 certified and a Level 2 B-BBEE contributor. With a commitment to safety, reliability and quality, we have earned the trust of some of South Africa’s leading construction, manufacturing and industrial companies.

// OUR MISSION

TO MOVE OUR CLIENTS' MOST CRITICAL LOADS SAFELY, ON SCHEDULE, AND WITHOUT COMPROMISE — WITH TAILOR-MADE LIFTING, TRANSPORT AND RIGGING SOLUTIONS.

Every job starts with a plan: the right equipment, a method statement, and a crew that has done it before.

// OUR VISION

THE CALL
FOR THE
IMPOSSIBLE

To be Southern Africa's most trusted heavy lifting and rigging partner.

The company clients call when the load is too heavy, too awkward or too important to get wrong — and the standard others in our industry are measured against.

// OUR VALUES

WHAT WE WON'T COMPROMISE ON

Safety, no shortcuts

Method statements, licensed operators and a dedicated safety manager on every job. Nothing we lift is worth an injury.

Craftsmanship

Immaculately maintained equipment and riggers who take pride in getting a sensitive machine down safely.

Straight answers

Clear scope, honest timelines and a realistic quote up front — before the trucks leave the yard.

We own the outcome

No hand-offs. The people who quote your job are the people accountable for it.

// OUR CULTURE

A CREW THAT STAYS,
NOT A HEADCOUNT

People first, on site and in the yard. Empowered personnel make the right choice, first time — and they are the reason clients ask for the same crew again.

You ask. We supply.

Crews that come back

Our operators and riggers grow with the company. Long-standing teams know the equipment, know each other and work safer because of it.

Training is ongoing

Drivers, crane operators and riggers are trained and fully licensed, so the right decision is the first decision on site.

The name on the door

In business since 2016. Every load leaves here with our name on it, and that is what keeps the standard high.

// HEALTH & SAFETY

A SAFE WORKING ENVIRONMENT, WHEREVER WE OPERATE

ISO 9001 certified

Certified quality management. Compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Act is a way of life.

Training first

Empowered personnel make the right choice, first time. Operators are trained and fully licensed.

Dedicated safety manager

Oversees compliance and assists with your organisation's specific safety requirements.

Client feedback

Trusted with the heavy work

Contractors, plant engineers and factory managers call us back because the lift goes right the first time.

“Two cranes, one lift, and not a mark on the equipment. Their riggers had the whole operation planned out before they even arrived on site.”

Plant Manager

Rooftop cooling unit installation · Gauteng

“We needed a machine off the factory floor and running again by Monday. Consolidated moved it on the Saturday and it was commissioned the next working day.”

Operations Director

Machine relocation · Mpumalanga

“Moving an abnormal load through town takes nerve and paperwork. They handled both, and the permits were approved a week ahead of the move.”
