Knuckle boom / HIAB pickers
Truck-mounted HIAB pickers set lumber, trusses, concrete, steel and mechanical units while carrying the load and crane on the same chassis. Operator and rigging are included, by the hour or by the project.
Service
Crane Rental
Truck-mounted pickers and mobile cranes for the hour, the shift or the project.
Scope
What this service covers.
One call covers the crane, the deck and the operator.
Mobile cranes
For lifts needing more reach or capacity than a truck-mounted picker: equipment placement, rooftop and tower work, and tandem lifts.
Wet rental with operator
Crane, truck, fuel and certified operator supplied as one line item, with no separate labour sourcing.
Hourly, daily or monthly terms
Short calls for a single pick, or a unit assigned to your project for the duration with the same operator.
Site-directed work
Our operator takes direction from your superintendent within the limits of the load chart and the lift plan.
Documentation on request
Operator certification records, unit load charts and inspection paperwork provided for your site file.
