Long Reach Crane Hire
28 metres goes a loooong way
Our long reach truck-mounted crane, inclusive of a fly jib, can clear distance and obstacles with ease. That’s why when our phone rings, people aren’t calling about the small stuff.
Our calls go a little like this: “Can you crane pallets onto the roof of a shopping centre after hours?” or “Can you reach over our garage to the back of our property from the driveway?”
And 99.9% of the time, the answer’s yes.
Benefits of hiring a long reach crane truck
Benefits of hiring a long reach crane
Place bulky items at a distance
A long reach crane truck gives you more control over where you can place items, including heavy and bulky ones. Even if our crane truck can’t be parked close to your ideal placement.
Gets the job done quicker
A crane truck with long reach is a much more capable crane. It reduces the amount of reloads and repositions needed, which speeds the job up while reducing workplace hazards - a win/win!
Overcome physical barriers
We can crane items over houses, buildings, fences, and gardens with ease and once we’re done, you wouldn’t even know we were there. No tyre marks mucking up your landscaping.
Access roofs easily
How many men does it take to lift an air con up on the roof? None - just let our crane operator work their magic. All jokes aside, long reach crane hire is the safest, fastest way to lift equipment up on a roof, and can even streamline the installation process.

Tell us about your project
To best know how we can help, we’d love to know the following:
-
When you reach out, tell us about the scope of works you require, whether it be cranage, installation support, delivery or project management.
The more details you can provide about the load, the better. Tell us about the weight, size and shape, and what it’s made from. If it’s fragile or hazardous in any way, the sooner we know, the better we can prepare.
-
Whether you require us to attend one site or more, we’ll need to know what site access is like.
Tell us about street access, ground conditions, overhead powerlines, overhanging trees, and any other obstacles that may be in our way.
If other trades will be present on site, we’ll need them to give us ample space to conduct our job smoothly and safely.
-
Whether your job is very urgent or not too time sensitive, we will work towards scheduling your job to meet your needs.
And of course, the more notice we receive, the better.
FAQs
What types of crane trucks do you offer?
At Cope Crane Trucks, we utilise an ISUZU crane truck with a 28m Effer rear-mounted crane. Day to day, our crane truck has ample reach and capacity to safely and efficiently complete our clients’ jobs.
For projects that require larger capacity equipment, we liaise with trusted professionals within our diverse network and project manage all transportation and cranage for you to ensure the job runs smoothly.
What is your availability like?
Like many other small businesses, no day looks the same, and therefore our availability differs. We encourage our clients to book their jobs in two weeks in advance, but understand that’s not always possible. If you’re on a tight deadline, we’ll do our best to work in with you and ensure the job gets done.
What is your operator’s experience and certification?
Anthony, our primary crane operator, has over ten year’s experience in the field. He is a licensed crane operator, and ticketed rigger, dogmen and electrical spotter.
What safety measures are in place?
Safety is a non-negotiable in our practice, which is why we champion safety on and off the job site.
We ensure our equipment is certified and in great working condition. We regularly service our truck and crane, and quality control our equipment, such as chains and slings, to make certain nothing is faulty or damaged.
Onsite, we follow strict safety protocols when setting up and operating the crane. If needed, we’ll organise traffic control to keep our team, your team and passersby out of harm's way.
Are your cranes inspected and certified?
Yes, we only operate crane trucks that are in certification and are regularly serviced and inspected by qualified mechanics and technicians.
What are your requirements for setup and operation on-site?
Prior to us arriving onsite, we’ll need to know your site conditions. This includes variables such as ground stability, overhanging trees, street access and site access to name a few.
We’ll also need the site to be cleared for us to set up in the most optimal position. If other trades are working onsite, we require clean, clear site access with all other personnel a safe distance away from our operation.
