Rough-terrain cranes at a glance
- Typical capacity: roughly 30 to 130 tons rated, depending on the model
- Typical reach: roughly 100 to 150 feet of main boom on many units, with jib options
- Setup & transport: typically delivered on a lowboy trailer; can pick and carry around the site on suitable ground, which makes them practical for multi-day work
Good fits: multi-day or multi-week crane support on construction sites; steel, precast, and tilt-up on unimproved ground; utility, pipe, and infrastructure work; inverters, transformers, and equipment on solar projects; moving loads around a large site.
Those are headline figures; capacity drops sharply as the load moves farther from the crane, so the crane company sizes it from its load charts using your weight, distances, and site.
Planning a lift in Scottsdale
- HOAs and gated communities: Many Scottsdale neighborhoods have HOA rules, work-hour limits, and guard gates. Arrange gate access and check HOA rules before the crane is scheduled.
- Finished surfaces: Pavers, decorative driveways, and landscaping often need mats or cribbing under the outriggers. Point them out so the crane company can protect them.
- Near Scottsdale Airport and Old Town: Cranes near the Airpark may need advance FAA notice depending on height. Old Town street setups generally need a right-of-way permit from the City of Scottsdale.
