hoistable

Able to lift

Hoistable describes something capable of being lifted or raised, typically by mechanical means: The cargo containers are hoistable by crane.

In programming, hoistable refers to declarations that can be moved to the top of their scope during code execution—a JavaScript variable or function that's hoistable becomes available before its position in the written code.
