- Site access: ground conditions, space for outriggers, gates, slopes and overhead power lines.

Crane rental questions
Do you own the cranes?
No. Tyler Crane Rental is an independent referral service. We pass your request to a local, independent crane company that serves Tyler, and they quote and perform the lift directly with you.
What is the difference between operated and bare crane rental?
An operated rental includes the crane and a qualified operator, and the crane company is responsible for running the lift. A bare rental is the machine only, for companies with their own certified operators. Most homeowners and many contractors book operated rentals.
How big a crane do I need?
It depends on the load weight and the radius, meaning how far the crane must reach from its setup spot. A small load set far away can need a larger crane than a heavy load set close. The crane company sizes the crane from those details.
How much does crane rental cost?
Operated cranes are usually priced by the hour with a minimum number of hours, plus travel or mobilization. Larger cranes, extra rigging crew, permits and overtime add cost. See the cost guide for what drives the price.
Can a crane lift HVAC units onto my roof?
Yes. Rooftop HVAC change-outs are one of the most common crane jobs. Share the unit weight, building height and where the crane can park.
How much notice do you need?
Smaller boom truck jobs can sometimes be scheduled within days. Larger cranes and jobs that need street permits take more lead time. Tell us your date in the form.
