Mobile cranes provide supreme flexibility, easily maneuvering in tricky situations where obstructions are present. Being powerful and precise, these machines are cable-controlled with a crane mounted on crawlers, rubber-tired carriers or hydraulic-powered. They can also be equipped with a telescoping boom or created as self-propelled models. One of the key advantages is that they require very little setup or assembly, meaning they can easily transport materials to a site with different types of load and cargo.

Many construction companies invest in mobile crane trucks because they can lift extremely heavy amounts of weight, whilst a typical crane features a hoist rope, wire ropes or chains and sheaves. Operators use levers and pulleys to get the very best out of these machines, simply lifting and lowering materials, or moving items horizontally. Mobile cranes help play a pivotal role in a multitude of construction and industrial sectors, whilst the most common types include:
Truck Mounted – Also known as a ‘boom truck’, this design will typically feature a rear-mounted rotating telescopic-boom crane on a commercial truck chassis that guarantees exceptional strength.
Rough Terrain – As the name suggests, this form of mobile crane is designed for challenging ground conditions, such as rugged and steep grades on construction sites.
Crawler – With a boom fitted on an undercarriage that’s equipped with a set of crawler tracks to provide stability and mobility, crawler mobile cranes operate on sites with minimal movement. With wide tracks, you can spread out the weight over a large area, without fear of sinking deep into the ground!
One example is the electrical industry, specifically those responsible for maintaining electrical lines. If a transformer goes out, operators are able to make full use of these mobile cranes to take down the existing transformer, many of which will weigh several tons. These trucks can also be used for many other purposes which involve grabbing, hooking, or slinging bundles of material that are either wrapped, boxed or coiled appropriately. Most mobile cranes are powered by electric motors, as well as extremely powerful hydraulics, so they can move heavy equipment, materials and machinery without compromising on safety. Multi-ton loads will not be a problem for these cranes that are affixed on vehicles, and there are hundreds of different designs.
If you’re looking to upgrade to a newer model or require extra capacity to lift all of the items that you work with each day, it could be time to sell your existing truck for cash today. We are always at the ready to provide fair and fast quotations, no matter the spec, age, features, condition or transmission.
With crane lorries, you have a great deal of versatility and manoeuvrability. You can lift, load and transport as one unit, however, there are so many variations, and each has its own unique set of advantages.

All-terrain telescopic cranes deliver unrivalled safety and performance, no matter the terrain or weather conditions. These powerful machines are incredibly versatile with off-road/rough terrain mobility and decent speeds on public roads and highways. All-terrain telescopic crane lorries are widely seen as the luxury version of a mobile hydraulic crane, often featuring an all-wheel-drive steering suspension system and an incredibly lifting capacity, generally ranging from 40 to 1,000 tonnes. Designed to handle harsh site conditions, all-terrain telescopic mobile cranes elevate efficiency, safety and productivity levels.
Spierings revolutionised the crane industry by “putting the tower crane on wheels”, but they’ve evolved to develop vehicles that are bigger and better; the SK1265-AT6 is the biggest mobile crane available on the market (at the time of writing) and has already been constructed more than 250 times. Every mobile tower crane designed by Spierings has been designed and developed to be easy to set up, allowing operators to get to work quickly, whilst the cab provides the optimum viewing position for precision. These mobile cranes are ideal for work in areas where space is restricted, such as narrow roads and built-up inner-city areas, whilst they’re equipped with ample lighting to ensure work can continue after sundown.
