About Us

Frank started his career as a crane operator in 1994. Working for his father-in-law at JJ Crane Service is where he learned to operate a wide variety of mobile cranes. Frank started his own business in 2005. Being the only operator for many years gave him the opportunity to be involved and focused on each job and develop great relationships with his customers which he has maintained throughout the years. With booming business, Frank purchased a brand new 22 ton boom truck crane and hired his daughter, Dallas, to run it. This crane is smaller and can fit in tight spots where most cranes cannot. Now we are able to accommodate more for our customers.

Scheduling Our Services

You can call, text, or email Kelli to set up your next lift. Please be prepared to provide the measurements and weight of the load, expected service time needed, and address of the job to determine which crane will be best for your lift.

Customers are responsible for inspecting ground conditions prior to the job to ensure there is firm level ground and a safe area for the crane to set up
. Our operators must be made aware of any underground utilities or areas on the job site that would hinder the crane from making a safe lift. Safety is our top priority. You can always expect an experienced, certified operator and a well maintained crane for your job.

Our cranes are equipped with straps and shackles. If you need anything additional, for example: spreader bar, man-basket, trash box, or any extra rigging be sure to request it when scheduling your job. An extra fee may apply. Our customers are responsible for all items below the crane hook which includes rigging up the load and signaling the operator. According to OSHA, all rigger and signal persons shall be certified prior to start of any and all operations. If you need a rigger or signal person for the job, please arrange for one when scheduling.
