Things To Consider For Your Next Crane Truck Rentals

By Irene Hendrickson


As with any project, having the right equipment for the job is essential for a successful outcome and is particularly true when considering construction equipment and industrial machines. Trying to manage a job with equipment that is not specifically meant for the task or may be unable to handle the scope of the task is potentially wasteful and very dangerous. It is for this reason that this article seeks to offer tips to consider when one is considering cranes for rent options.

Main functions of construction companies consist of heavy lifting jobs such as transportation of material, site preparation, equipment delivery, or any number of other functions. It is in these situations where knuckleboom trucks have become such an equipment staple because of its versatility; so finding the right unit for the job is essential.

Different jobs need different heights. There are now many different kinds of crane automobiles that can be equipped with a bucket to help employees do any work requiring elevation that is fairly high. When it comes to tree servicing, having a crane that can lift an employee high enough to be level with the work area is a concern. Even though the main reason why bucket trucks were eagerly adopted into this profession was to end the need to climb the tree, some companies haven't become equipped with such vehicles and still need to use a worker for the task.

The length of boom of the winches also matters. With larger crane units, the first consideration should be the reaching capacity of the arm itself since the rest of the unit will be appropriately built for that specification. The longer the boom and the higher the lift, the bigger and heavier the chassis must be to handle the load being lifted with stability. For smaller applications, the chassis can be smaller and lighter in comparison to the reach of the boom. Over-buying or renting too large of a vehicle is a waste of money; however, under-buying or renting too small of a machine could be very costly in other ways.

Bucket trucks with cranes are the most common vehicle used as an aerial lift for any kind of tree work; however, they are not the only ones that are used. These vehicles definitely offer more flexibility in terms of being able to reach higher as well as further away from the vehicle; sometimes this truck just isn't the right one for the job.

Make comparative notes by visiting certain websites of companies offering hiring services of their winches or make inquiries and in depth research over the phone. The service providers must have a wide range of available winches to choose from to cater the needs of every contractors and businessmen. The several types of winches come with various sizes and function. They are the hydraulic derricks, ODC transports, telescopic cranes, forklifts, hot mix plants, hydras, lattice boom truck winches, asphalt plants, trailers, drum mix plants, mechanical crawler, and truck mounted cranes among others.

Knuckleboom - These are vehicles that combine the previous two types. It is generally much smaller than any full size crane truck since the articulated arm stores more efficiently, allowing for a considerably higher payload capacity; yet they are larger than any aerial boom truck. Knuckleboom trucks are at the lease available on a small flatbed chassis all the way up to quite large truck beds with various arm sizes to match, making these units the most useful of all boom trucks.

With the number of attachment options available for the many different sizes of boom trucks and chassis, it is possible for a custom unit to be built for just about any need as long as those needs are accurately documented.
