Three 230 t cranes at Kooringal

If you are searching for 250 t crane hire in the Riverina, our nearest match is the Liebherr LTM 1230-5.1. Its manufacturer's rating is 230 t, so that is the number we use, because a lift plan only works with the true number.

Three of our four LTM 1230-5.1s are based at Wagga Wagga, each with a 75 m boom on five axles. Ask us about tandem lifts, which we engineer in-house and run with our own lift supervisors.

For loads beyond 230 t, our 350 t Liebherr LTM 1350-6.1 is also based at Wagga Wagga. See heavy lift cranes.

Where it sits

Is this the right size?

Rated capacity is a ceiling, not a promise at every radius. If the 230 t chart does not cover your load at your radius, the 350 t LTM 1350-6.1, also at Wagga Wagga, is the next step up.

Other crane sizes

Before you book

What to send us

Four things let us size the crane and quote. Photos help with all of them.

01

The load

Its weight including rigging gear and any spreader beam, its size and its lifting points. Drawings help.

02

The reach and height

How far out from the crane the load must be placed, and how high. Mark the start and end points on a photo or site plan.

03

The site and ground

Address or paddock access, ground bearing, space for outriggers and counterweight, and how a five-axle crane gets in.

04

The date and permits

When you need it, and any possession or shutdown window. Permits for the crane and counterweight can take time, so call early.

Questions

250t class crane hire in the Riverina

Do you have a 250 t crane in the Riverina?

Not one rated at 250 t. Our largest five-axle crane is the Liebherr LTM 1230-5.1, rated 230 t, and our 350 t LTM 1350-6.1 is also based at Wagga Wagga. We quote every crane at its true rating.

How many 230 t cranes are based in Wagga Wagga?

Three of our four LTM 1230-5.1s work from our Kooringal yard. The fourth is in Brisbane.

Can you do a tandem lift with two cranes?

Yes. Multi-crane lifts are engineered in-house and run by our lift supervisors. Call early so the plan, the cranes and the crews line up.

How far ahead should I book a 230 t crane?

As early as you can. Heavy lifts usually need a site visit, a lift study and, for the counterweight, transport planning. Call (02) 6925 2556 to start.

Do you cover the whole Riverina?

Yes. We work across the Riverina, the South West Slopes, the Snowy Valleys and the Central West, and further for larger projects. See our Riverina crane hire page.

How much does 250t class crane hire cost in the Riverina?

It depends on the hours, the crew, any permits and how the crane has to be set up. Most jobs have a minimum hire. Send us the details for a fixed, itemised quote.
