Answer:

where is the floor? ground floor? loft floor?
It will be fineYour right, your not supposed to compress it too much but just pushing it up 2 inches will not hurt the r-valueThey are using plastic to create a vapor barrierThis okay too, as long as it is sealed around the edges so no moisture can get past the plastic.
Mosr places which sell insulation also sell 20 joist tye wires to hold the insulationYou just bend the wires between the joists undeu the insulation and above the ceiling.
In the UK the crane is called a Hi AB so look for lorry mounted Hi AB there are plenty sites on Google.
