Q1. How much does it cost to hire a crane truck in Auckland?
Pricing depends on the size of crane truck needed, the weight and reach required, and whether it's a short-term or long-term hire. Get in touch with our team for a quote tailored to your job; we offer competitive rates across our SL5 to SL8 fleet.
Q2. What size Hiab crane truck do I need for my job?
It depends on how much you're lifting and how far the crane needs to reach. Our SL5 Medium suits loads up to 5 tonnes, the SL6 Large handles up to 10 tonnes, the SL7 Extra Large reaches 23.5 metres for tricky access, and the SL8 Extra Large with Trailer manages up to 21 tonnes for the biggest jobs. If you're not sure, call us, and we'll help you pick the right truck.
Q3. Do I need a permit for an over-dimensional or overweight load in Auckland?
Yes, loads that exceed standard size or weight limits on New Zealand roads generally require an overweight or over-dimension permit from Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency or the relevant road controlling authority, and may need a pilot vehicle. Carrolls can manage over-dimensional loads and piloting as part of the job, so you don't have to navigate the permit process yourself.
Q5. What can a crane truck or Hiab lift?
Our crane trucks are used across a wide range of jobs in Auckland, including shipping containers, building materials, air conditioning units, portable cabins, spa pools, pallets, landscaping materials and furniture. If your load doesn't fit neatly into one of these categories, get in touch, and we'll advise on the best option.
Q6. Can I hire a crane truck for a one-off job, or only long-term?
Both. We offer flexible short-term hire for one-off lifts and long-term hire for ongoing projects, with competitive rates either way.
