Mobile Crane Services

We provide reliable mobile crane services using our Palfinger PK-62002-EH truck-mounted crane - ideal for precise lifts, tight access, and efficient site work.

Reach & lifting guide (example):

A classic empty 20ft shipping container weighs roughly 2.2-2.4 tonnes. Our crane can comfortably handle an empty 20ft container at shorter to mid reach, with capacity reducing as the boom extends. For long-reach lifts (12-16m+) and jib work (often 20m+), it’s typically suited to lighter loads, depending on setup.

Safety first:

Our crane is fitted with modern safety systems including load monitoring/overload protection, stabiliser (outrigger) monitoring, and smooth proportional hydraulic controls for accurate placement. We operate with a safety-led approach on every job, ensuring the lift is planned around ground conditions, setup, access, and the load.

Great for: containers, modular units, steelwork, machinery, plant and general site lifts.

Lifts are always confirmed based on outriggers, ground conditions, access, and load details. For a clear, competitive quote, send us: What you’re lifting (weight if known), where it’s going (distance/obstacles), and site access details.
