Machinery moving and rigging
Machinery movers and riggers
Ranges Rigging does machinery relocation, industrial plant installation and specialist tight-access machinery shifting. We lift machinery and plant on and off trucks, shift it around a site and set it down where it needs to go.
Riggers and dogmen are provided when required. We can facilitate traffic management, coordinate local council permits, arrange electrical spotting and arrange heavy haulage transport. Tell us the machine, its rough weight, where it's going and what the access is like, and we'll plan the move and quote it.
- 12t Franna 12 tonne safe working load. Pick and carry. Suits lighter lifts and tighter sites.
- 25t Franna 25 tonne safe working load. Pick and carry. For heavier loads and longer reach.

FAQ
Machinery moving and rigging: questions people ask
Do you move machinery and plant?
Yes. We do machinery relocation, industrial plant installation and specialist tight-access machinery shifting.
Do you only move machinery?
No. We lift and shift anything our 12t or 25t Franna can lift, such as structures, sheds and cabins, containers, tanks and other heavy objects. Tell us what it is and roughly what it weighs, and we'll quote it.
Do you supply riggers and dogmen?
When the job needs them. Smaller lifts often don't. We tell you what your job needs when we quote.
Can you move a machine with tight access?
Often, yes. We do specialist tight-access machinery shifting, and our 12t Franna suits tighter sites. Send photos of the access and where the machine is going, and we'll tell you what's possible.
Can you load and unload machinery from a truck?
Yes. We load and unload trucks, and we can arrange heavy haulage transport if the machine has to go further.
Which crane will the move need?
It depends on the weight and the reach. We run a 12 tonne and a 25 tonne Franna (safe working load). Send the details and we'll match the crane to the move.
How much does it cost to move machinery?
It depends on the crane, the time on site, the access and the distance. Send the job details and a few photos, or call 0414 649 934, and we'll call back with a quote.
