What Is a Crane Rental Service?

A crane rental service provides a mobile crane and, critically, a trained, licensed operator to lift, place, or remove heavy loads that conventional equipment cannot safely handle. Whether the task involves removing a towering oak, setting a roof truss, or positioning an HVAC unit on a commercial rooftop, a crane rental service makes it possible without risk to your property, your neighbors, or your crew.

Unlike bare equipment rental where you arrange your own operator, R & R's crane rental service is fully operated and managed from start to finish. Our crane operators work alongside your general contractor, ensuring every lift is planned, safe, and executed with precision. You get a single accountable team covered under one liability insurance policy.

What does the crane rental actually include?

The crane, a skilled operator, and a plan for the lift. This is an operated rental — we don't drop off equipment and wish you luck. Every rental comes with an experienced operator, and every lift starts with a site walk: access, ground conditions, overhead clearance, and where the load actually needs to land.

R & R Tree Service has owned and run its own crane for tree work across North Georgia since 1987 — licensed, insured, and operated by our own crew, never a subcontractor. Need the tree taken down too? That's our crane tree removal service — one crew for the whole job.

Applications

What Can You Use a Crane Rental Service For?

Our crane rental service supports a wide range of residential, commercial, and construction applications across North Georgia.

✓
Tree Removal: Large trees over 60–80 feet, storm-damaged trees, or trees located too close to structures for conventional climbing. The crane provides a controlled anchor point, allowing our arborists to section and lower the tree without free-falls near your home, fence, or utility lines.
✓
Roof Truss Installation: Setting roof trusses is one of the most common crane rental applications. Trusses are heavy, awkward to handle, and must be placed with precision. A crane lifts and positions each truss exactly where your framing crew needs it, reducing labor time and the risk of on-site injury.
✓
HVAC & Rooftop Equipment: Commercial HVAC units, air handlers, generators, and rooftop equipment are too large for forklifts on most properties. A crane lifts the unit over the building and sets it directly on the roof curb or pad with precision that protects the structure and surrounding mechanical systems.
✓
Storm Damage & Emergency Debris: After a severe storm, fallen trees, large limbs, and structural debris often cannot be safely moved without a crane. R & R provides controlled reach and lift capacity to remove heavy debris without causing additional damage to your roof, foundation, or surrounding property.

✓
Modular & Prefab Building Placement: Modular home sections, prefabricated utility buildings, shipping containers, and large storage structures often require crane placement to set correctly on a foundation or pad. Our crane service handles the lift while your crew manages alignment and anchoring.
✓
Swimming Pool Installation: Fiberglass and prefabricated pools must be lifted and lowered into excavated sites with precision. Cranes make this process safer and faster, particularly in backyards with limited access or tight clearances between the home and fence lines.
✓
Construction Material Hoisting: General contractors frequently need crane rental for hoisting lumber, steel beams, large mechanical equipment, and heavy building materials to upper floors or rooftops. Our crane and operator integrate into your project schedule as needed.
✓
Utility & Telecom Infrastructure: Utility poles, transformer equipment, telecommunications towers, and antenna arrays frequently require a crane for installation, maintenance, or removal. R & R supports utility contractors and telecom crews across the Atlanta metro and surrounding counties.
About Us
How We Work

How Our Crane Rental Service Works

From your first call to final cleanup, here's what to expect when you book crane rental service with R & R.

01
Free On-Site Consultation & Lift Planning
An R & R specialist visits your property, assesses lift requirements, evaluates access points, ground conditions, and overhead obstructions, and develops a lift plan. For complex jobs, a formal lift plan and rigging diagram are prepared in advance. No charge, no obligation.
02
Equipment Staging & Site Preparation
We position the crane, establish safe work zones, and brief all crew members and contractors on the lift sequence. Ground protection measures, cribbing, and outrigger pads are placed before any lift begins.
03
The Lift
Our licensed crane operator executes each lift according to the plan. Loads are rigged, raised, moved, and set with precision that protects your property and everyone on site. Communication between the operator and ground crew is maintained throughout.
04
Cleanup & Site Restoration
Once the work is complete, we clear the work zone, remove equipment, and restore the site as much as possible. For tree removal jobs, all debris, brush, and wood are removed from your property.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crane Rental Service

A crane rental service provides the crane and a licensed, trained operator who manages the lift from start to finish. Bare crane rental requires you to supply your own certified operator, which adds significant coordination and liability. For most residential, commercial, and construction applications in Georgia, a fully operated crane rental service is the practical and legally appropriate option. R & R provides the crane, operator, rigging, and crew as a complete package.
Crane rental service covers tree removal, roof truss installation, HVAC and rooftop equipment placement, modular building and prefab structure placement, pool installation, storm debris removal, construction material hoisting, and utility or telecommunications infrastructure work. If you have a lift challenge not listed here, call (678) 482-9994 and we can assess your specific needs.
Permit requirements depend on the location and nature of the lift. Work over public roads, near power lines, or in right-of-way areas may require coordination with local municipalities or utility companies. R & R handles permit research and coordination as part of the planning process. During your free consultation, we identify any permitting needs upfront so there are no delays on job day.
Yes, but proximity to power lines requires careful planning and, in many cases, coordination with the utility company to de-energize or shield the lines before the lift begins. Crane operators in Georgia are required to maintain minimum safe distances from energized lines under OSHA and state regulations. R & R evaluates all overhead obstructions during the site consultation.
Ground protection is planned during the on-site consultation. We use cribbing, outrigger pads, and timber mats to distribute the crane's weight across a larger surface area, reducing pressure on driveways, lawns, and landscaping. If your surface conditions present a risk, we will identify solutions during the estimate rather than after the crane is already on site.
For planned projects, roof truss sets, construction lifts, HVAC installations, we recommend scheduling 1 to 2 weeks in advance, especially during peak construction and storm seasons. For hazardous emergency situations such as a tree on a roof or storm debris blocking access, call (678) 482-9994 immediately. R & R prioritizes emergency crane calls throughout North Georgia.
Yes. R & R Tree Service is fully licensed, bonded, and insured, including general liability and workers' compensation coverage. Our crane operators hold the certifications required to operate cranes in Georgia. Proof of insurance is provided before any work begins. Never hire a crane service without requesting documentation of coverage first.
Yes. For storm-related crane work, tree removal, debris removal from a roof, or access work required after structural damage, R & R provides written documentation and detailed estimates for insurance submission. We can coordinate directly with your adjuster to ensure the scope of work is accurately represented.
