Construction projects can be quite complex. For one thing, site managers have to continuously wrestle with stringent deadlines. Additionally, finding the right staff and equipment to get the job done also factor high on their to-do lists!

Fortunately, the crane hire Melbourne rental companies offer make finding the best equipment so much easier. Some construction companies prefer to purchase their machinery, but rental options are often more cost-effective.

Crane Hire Has Several Benefits to Your Company

Each construction job has its own requirements and challenges. It’s not a guarantee that every machine will be needed on every project. So, purchasing the necessary machinery isn’t always the best option. But how exactly does crane hire benefit your company?

Cost-Effectiveness

The reality is most construction companies only use a crane for a few days during the whole project. That means buying a crane will leave it standing idle for a considerable amount of time. And, as every site manager knows, idle time is money lost.

Renting a crane means the machine only needs to be hired on the day or days that it’s required. You can plan work in such a way as to do the crane work over the same period. Costs are then only charged for those days.

Different Jobs = Different Cranes

As any site manager will tell you, not all cranes perform the same function. Lifting loads and reach required are among the factors that determine the type of crane you’ll need.

Depending on the project, your company might end up requiring two different cranes to get the whole job done. Purchasing two different cranes could result in extensive costs. The rental option allows you to hire the right crane for each specific job.

Some of the specifications that a rental company will require from you include the following:

  • What is the duration of the job?
  • What type of materials will the crane be lifting?
  • What is the distance the crane will be required to move a load?
  • What are the ground conditions the crane will be traveling on?
  • Are there low bridges or other obstructions between picking up the load and moving it?

No Service or Maintenance

All company equipment needs to be serviced and maintained regularly. This can be very costly. A breakdown can result in delays in getting the work done. Rental companies carry the responsibility of maintenance and service.

If the crane breaks down on the job, most rental companies will supply you with another machine. This will allow the work to continue, and you won’t have to bear the cost of the service.

Modern Technology

You might have bought a crane when you opened your business a few years ago. For years that might have been the ideal solution. But, as technology progressed, you might be realising that your old crane is lacking in comparison to modern equipment.

Rental companies can provide you with cranes that have the latest and best technology. Machines with enhanced technology increase productivity and give your company a competitive edge.

Expert Advice

Purchasing a crane will require an extensive amount of research on your part. Since cranes are so different with varying capabilities it might take you a while to make the right choice.

Rental agents are experts in their field. They’ll be able to advise you of the right type of crane for the job you need to be done. You’ll also have access to all the information needed to remain current with regulations and compliances.

You’ll also receive advice on the right permits needed for transporting and using the cranes. This will save your company time and money!

Eliminate Transport Costs

In most cases, the location of your company (where you store equipment) is nowhere near the job site. In fact, there’s no guarantee they’re even in the same town or district. Having your own crane will require you to have a truck or transport plan in place.

Depending on the type of crane, or the area of the job, you might not be able to drive the crane on a national road. When you make use of crane hire the onus will be on the rental company to arrange the transport to and from the job site.

No Need for Storage

Cranes are enormous machines. It goes without saying that the average crane won’t fit into an average-sized garage! It might not be safe to leave your crane standing outside on the job site for extended periods.

A rental company will arrange delivery to the site on the days that you require the machine. There’ll be no need for your company to invest in storage facilities!

Final Thoughts

Making use of crane hire will give your company access to modern cranes with all the bells and whistles needed to get the job done most effectively. Whether you need a crane for the short or long-term duration, a rental agent will easily be able to accommodate you. Get the competitive edge by considering crane hire!
