Johannesburg Truck & Crane Hire offers crane trucks, mobile cranes and rigging support for Johannesburg, Gauteng and national enquiries. Tell us whether you need lifting, cargo transport or both so we can quote for the right service.

Crane Hire Services from Johannesburg Truck and Crane Hire.

Choose the service around the job: a crane truck combines cargo transport with loading or unloading, while mobile crane hire is for lifting and positioning requirements assessed for your site.

Our mobile crane range is 8–500 tons. Send the individual load weights, dimensions, placement details and site address so our team can confirm suitable equipment and availability. A truck carrying-capacity label is not its crane lifting rating.

Answers to help you plan

Crane hire questions

How much does it cost to hire a crane?

Crane hire depends on the equipment needed, lift arrangement, time on site, travel and agreed crew or rigging requirements. Send the load weight, location and intended placement for a job-specific quote. A simple crane day rate does not describe the full cost of every lift.

Should I hire a crane truck or a mobile crane?

A crane truck carries cargo and has a mounted crane for loading or placement. A mobile crane is dedicated lifting equipment, with separate load transport where required. The right choice depends on the weight, reach, access and whether the item also needs to travel between sites.

Can an 8 ton crane truck lift 8 tons at any distance?

No. A truck's advertised tonnage is not a promise that its crane can lift the same weight at every reach. Crane capacity must be checked for the actual lift radius and setup. Give us the load details and placement position so the lifting requirement can be assessed separately from transport.

Why do you need the lifting distance as well as the weight?

A crane's usable capacity changes with its lifting configuration and the distance to the load. Weight alone is not enough to select a crane. Show where the crane could stand, where it must collect the item and where it must place it; site photos and measured distances help the assessment.

What site information should I send before booking a crane?

Include entrance dimensions, vehicle access, setup space, ground information, overhead obstacles, the lifting and landing positions, and site working hours. Share drawings or photos where available. The team will confirm whether further site information or an assessment is needed before the job can be planned.

Can you quote for transport, lifting and final positioning together?

Yes. Johannesburg Truck and Crane Hire can plan transport and lifting as one agreed scope. Describe every stage, from collection and loading to unloading and final placement, so the quote covers the required work and any separate arrangements are clear.
