Crawler Crane Transport
Transporting crawler cranes involves moving these heavy machines from one construction site to another. Crawler cranes have tracks that help them move over rough ground. They can also carry heavy loads.

What is a crawler crane and how is it used?
Crawler cranes are powerful machines used in construction for tasks like lifting heavy objects, digging, and tearing down buildings. They can travel over many types of ground. This includes sand, gravel, and muddy areas. This ability makes them useful in different environments. These cranes can carry very heavy items, such as concrete blocks and steel beams, making them essential for big projects. You often see them working on the construction of bridges and wind turbines.
Nationwide Crawler Crane Transport
Transporting crawler cranes is as versatile as the equipment itself. When the equipment is disassembled, the main body of the crawler crane is shipped as one load. From here, all other pieces of the crane, such as the boom, counterweight, and crawler tracks, are disassembled for shipment as well. Our Crawler Crane Transport expert knowledge guides us to take extreme care in selecting the proper lowboy or flatbed trailers for all components, whether it be a 100t crawler (usually requiring around four loads total) or an LR1300 (that can land at around 17 or more loads total). Pieces are then secured to their respective trailers with appropriate tie-down procedures to ensure safe transport, mile by mile.
What makes a crawler crane different from an average crane?
A crawler crane is different from an average crane because it can accommodate larger loads and lift to higher reaches than an average crane.
Why are crawler cranes ideal for pick-and-carry and heavy duty lifting?
Crawler cranes are attached to an undercarriage with tracks, allowing for extreme stability and strength at long distances. This makes them ideal for pick-and-carry and any heavy-duty lifting projects.
Can crawler cranes be shipped with loads?
Yes, crawler cranes can be shipped with loads, sometimes full, depending on the distance traveled.
How does a crawler crane provide the best support and mobility on rough or uneven surfaces?
Crawler cranes provide the best support and mobility because of their attachment to the tracked crawlers and broad base.
Hauling a crawler crane job done by us
2010 Grove H150T, which means 150-ton crane. It was 36 long, 12 wide, 13.2 tall, and 114,000 lbs. It was transported with a 10-axle RGN lowboy extendable. For shipping, we needed a high-pole escort for the height, an escort for the width, and a police escort for the length of the unit. When arriving in Baltimore, their laws required a police escort due to the length of the unit. A knowledgeable transport logistics veteran is necessary when shipping oversized equipment and cranes for all your transport needs. Contact Kyla.
