Availability for urgent jobs depends on which crane is free and how close it is, so calling early in the day improves the odds of a same-day lift.
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.
No. Same-day availability depends on the operator's fleet and schedule on that day. Marking your request urgent and calling early gives the best chance.
The address, a short description of what has to be lifted, its approximate weight if you know it, and a phone number that will be answered. The faster the operator can size the job, the faster they can dispatch.
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 We do not quote a flat number because it would be misleading; send your lift details and you will get a written estimate from an operator.
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.
You will be working with one of our local partner crane crews in the Buffalo-Niagara region. They send you a written quote and handle the lift with their own crane, certified operator and insurance. Before the lift, ask for their certificate of insurance and operator certification; our partners will send them right away.
