What Is A Crawler Crane?

Tracks Instead Of Wheels, Built To Stay Stable

A crawler crane is a heavy lifting crane that runs on tracks rather than wheels. Those tracks spread its weight, so it stays stable on soft or uneven ground and can even travel around site with a load. It is built for the serious, high capacity lifts.

How Do You Transport A Crawler Crane?

A crawler crane is usually broken down into components and moved on several floats, with permits and route planning for oversize loads. This is where a lot of jobs come unstuck when the crane and the transport are booked through two different suppliers. We handle the machine and the entire heavy haulage together, so it arrives and is rigged ready to lift.

Should You Hire Or Buy A Crawler Crane?

Crawler cranes are a major asset, so most projects hire for the duration rather than buy. If you run continuous heavy lifting, ownership may stack up. We give you the honest numbers and source the machine either way.
