When a project calls for serious lifting power, you need a crew that knows how to plan a lift, the right equipment for the conditions, and a partner who shows up ready to work safely. Parker's Crane Service brings all of that to job sites across the Lake Norman region, backed by more than 40 years of experience and a fleet built to handle a wide range of lifts.

Whether you are setting HVAC units on a commercial rooftop, placing a generator, raising a cell tower component, or handling a heavy industrial set, the right crane keeps your project on schedule and your crew safe. Below, you will find everything you need to know about renting a mobile crane in the area, from our equipment and services to how we help you choose the right machine for the job.

Dependable Mobile Crane Rental for Your Next Project

A successful lift depends on matching the equipment to the work. Too little capacity creates safety risks and delays, while the wrong setup wastes time and money. Our team takes the guesswork out of that decision by evaluating your site, your loads, and your timeline, then recommending the crane and crew that fit best.

As a family owned and operated business, we treat every project as a personal effort. Our staff is customer service driven, and we hold ourselves and our equipment to high safety standards so you have one less thing to worry about while getting the job done. From the first quote to the final lift, our goal is simple: complete your project as safely and efficiently as possible.

Our Mobile Crane Fleet

We maintain a fleet of well-maintained mobile and truck-mounted cranes, which means we can match the right machine to the demands of your lift rather than forcing a job to fit a single type of equipment. Every crane is meticulously maintained and operated by certified personnel.

All-Terrain Mobile Crane

Our newest crane, the Grove GMK5150L, brings outstanding lifting capacity and strong job site accessibility. All-terrain models like this one combine highway travel with the ability to navigate rough or uneven ground, which makes them a smart choice for challenging sites. Key specifications include:

• Maximum capacity: 175 US tons
• Main boom length: 197 feet
• Maximum tip height: 318.2 feet
• Total gross vehicle weight: 132,280 pounds

When a lift demands height, reach, and substantial capacity, this crane delivers the power and precision the job requires.

Truck-Mounted Cranes

For lifts that call for a different balance of capacity and access, our truck-mounted cranes provide reliable performance and proven results. Our fleet includes:

• Grove TMS 9000E with a maximum capacity of 110 US tons and a maximum tip height of 142 feet
• Grove TMS 9000-2 with a maximum capacity of 50 to 60 US tons and a maximum tip height of 263.4 feet
• Two Grove TMS 700E models with a maximum capacity of 50 to 60 US tons and a maximum tip height of 212 feet

Each of these cranes is equipped to bring strong performance to the job site, and our team will help you determine which one suits your project.
