Mining crane hire in the northern Bowen Basin
Cranes, operators and riggers for mine sites in the northern Bowen Basin, from Coppabella to Collinsville, backed by ISO certified safety, quality and environmental systems.
Cranes for the mine sites
Our main work is in the Whitsundays, and we also run cranes out to the mine sites to the west, from Coppabella through to Collinsville. We supply the crane, a licensed operator and riggers or dogmen, with the lift planning and paperwork done before we get to the gate.
Our systems are certified to ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 and we're CICA members, which helps with contractor prequalification. Tell us your site's requirements for vehicles, inductions and documents and we'll work through them with you.
