Crane work in Buffalo, NY is driven by industrial and manufacturing plants, steel and fabrication, commercial and institutional construction, utility and energy work, and rooftop equipment replacements. Whether you need a boom truck for a rooftop unit or a large crane for a heavy industrial pick, the right machine depends on the load weight, how far it has to be placed and the ground it sits on.
Lake-effect snow, wind off Lake Erie and frozen or thawing ground change how a crane can be set up, so winter lifts are planned around ground conditions and wind limits.
Lifts that affect a city street, sidewalk or lane typically need a municipal permit, and the rules differ between the city of Buffalo and the surrounding towns.
Requests from across the Buffalo-Niagara region are passed to operators who serve your location.
Price depends on the size of the crane, how long you need it, whether it comes with an operator and rigging, and how far it has to travel to your site. Most operators have a minimum number of hours, plus mobilization and any permit costs. We do not quote a flat number because it would be misleading; send your lift details and you will get a written estimate from an operator.
Small boom trucks and mobile cranes can sometimes be on site the same or next day. Larger cranes need planning and are often booked days or weeks out. Tell us your date and we will say so if it is tight.
It depends where the crane sits. Lifts that affect a city street, sidewalk or lane typically need a municipal permit, and the rules differ between the city of Buffalo and the surrounding towns.

The weight and dimensions of what is being lifted, how far it has to be placed from where the crane can park, how high it has to go, the site address, the ground conditions and access, any overhead power lines, and your dates.
