High-capacity all-terrain and crawler cranes for industrial, energy and multi-day projects.
Bakersfield Crane Rental is a free referral service. Tell us about the job and we pass it to independent local crane companies who quote you directly.
Big lifts in Kern County are usually tied to energy and industry: refinery and plant turnarounds, oilfield equipment, tank and vessel sets, solar and battery storage sites, substations and large commercial steel. These jobs often need a 200-ton-plus all-terrain crane or a crawler crane assembled on site.
What to expect
- Engineering: a written lift plan, ground bearing calculations and sometimes a critical lift review.
- Assist cranes and trucks: counterweight and boom sections arrive on several trucks, and a smaller crane assembles the big one.
- Lead time: large cranes are scheduled weeks ahead. Share your window early.
- Pricing: usually quoted per day or per week plus mobilization and demobilization, which can be a large share of the total.
Use the form to describe the scope, including drawings or the weight list if you have them. A provider with the right fleet will follow up.
