Crane Trucks Shipping Services
The crane truck has a myriad of uses in the construction field and other industries. Heavy Haulers transports mounted boom trucks to construction sites, contractors and businesses across the continental U.S. and beyond. Our licensed and bonded drivers have years of experience moving Super Load or oversized vehicles; they are also kept up-to-date on legal changes in the transport business, keeping you safe from penalties or fines.
Using the Crane Truck Once Transported
A crane truck is used to lift heavy objects or move construction material to various locations around a build site. Its versatility makes it useful in other areas as well, from shipping to utility companies. The crane is just a steel truss or boom that is mounted on a platform. Hinged at the bottom, the equipment can be raised/lowered with cables.
There are different styles of cranes for different needs. The types of crane include:
● Mounted Boom Trucks
● Mounted Knuckle Boom Trucks
● Telescopic Crane
● Tower Crane
● Truck Mounted Crane (aka Boom truck/picker truck)
● Rough Terrain Crane
● Loader Crane (aka folding boom crane or knuckle boom crane)
● Overhead Crane
● Crawler crane
Whatever crane choice you work with, it can be difficult to transport it efficiently.
How To Ship a Crane Truck
Heavy Haulers knows how to ship a crane truck. These rigs weigh thousands of tonnes, with articulated booms and a hinged platform. These ship as oversized loads, using an RGN trailer with multiple axles, rated to evenly distribute the weight. These immense machines may have to be disassembled for shipping – and the experts at Heavy haulers understand how t do that safely. They'll ship as oversized loads, both due to weight and the unusual sizes of each piece.
The logistics specialists at Heavy haulers can help determine the right roads to carry the weight, and arrange for flagging and an escort convoy where needed. Special permitting, and drivers that can carefully guide your crane truck through busy city streets are the Heavy Haulers niche.

Shipping the Crane Truck to your Business
Cranes are known for their bulky, irregular height and width. Many large cranes require the haulers to disassemble the truck to properly fit it on the transport trailer. Sometimes more than one flatbed, truck or trailer is needed. At Heavy Haulers, we have the specialized vehicles to safely transport your knuckle boom or mounted boom crane. We plan and implement a detailed route plan and handle any logistical issues that might come up. Best of all, you can track the movement of your truck from beginning to end.
Let us work with you to tow your telescopic or knuckle boom crane where it needs to go. Call Heavy Haulers at 1-800-908-6206 and talk with a customer service agent today!
