Pool Delivery, Crane Access & Placement Guide
The final pool position is only workable if the transport and lifting sequence can reach it safely. Delivery planning should happen before fences, landscaping and surrounding structures remove the access needed for the lift.
Planning guidance — final supplied configuration remains project-specific.
Separate crane planning from pool supply
Crane capacity, radius, outrigger setup, ground bearing and lift method are determined by the appointed lifting provider for the actual site. Apollo can provide the current pool information needed to support that planning.
Identify overhead and side obstructions
Power lines, trees, roofs, eaves, neighbouring structures and narrow side access can change the lifting strategy. Record them before the final delivery plan is agreed.
Protect the final position
Foundation, clearances, equipment access and surrounding work should be ready for placement so the pool does not arrive before the site can receive it.
