Small crane hire

The small crane for tight access

Our 12t Franna (12 tonne safe working load) is a pick and carry crane. It can lift a load and drive with it on the hook, so it can move things around a site, not just lift them in one spot. It suits tighter sites and smaller lifts.

Got a heavier load? Our 25t Franna takes over. Tell us what needs lifting, where it's going and what the access is like, and we'll match the crane to the job.

  • 12t Franna 12 tonne safe working load. Pick and carry. Suits lighter lifts and tighter sites.
