Annual EWP Inspections in Albany
Albany's Great Southern WA position means a working fleet exposed to the region's famously fierce coastal winds and the corrosive marine air that comes with them. Scissor lifts at port and commercial facilities, boom lifts on construction and infrastructure projects across the Great Southern, and cherry pickers used by agricultural and trade contractors — an annual inspection on machines that have spent the year working near the Southern Ocean is a genuine structural and corrosion assessment, and deferring it because the machines look fine from the outside is exactly the kind of reasoning that misses what a close inspection of fasteners, pins and boom sections would find.
EWP Australia delivers annual EWP inspections across Albany and the Great Southern WA region — scissor lifts, boom lifts, cherry pickers and other EWP types — with the marine-exposure awareness that Albany's Southern Ocean climate demands. Each inspection covers structure, hydraulics, electrical systems and all safety functions, with the corrosion and fastener attention that sustained coastal-wind exposure requires.

Annual EWP Inspections in Albany — Common Questions
Does Albany's coastal exposure change what the annual inspection looks for?
The standard scope applies, but structural fasteners, pins, boom sections and electrical connections receive particular attention on machines that have worked in Albany's coastal-wind and salt-spray conditions.
Can annual inspections cover Great Southern rural properties and port operations as well as Albany town?
Yes — the broader Great Southern is covered as part of Albany scheduling, including port, agricultural and rural clients across the region.
10-Year Major Inspection — Albany
Every EWP reaches a 10-year major inspection milestone — a full structural strip-down, NDT of welds and pins, load testing and engineering documentation that resets the machine's compliance baseline. If your Albany machine is approaching or past ten years, this is the next step.
