Reach For The Antenna, Ground Bearing For The Pad
Cell tower work means height for the antenna and stable ground for the boom truck. Our 18 to 40 ton boom trucks reach up to 175 feet tip height for top hat antennas and microwave equipment. We bring crane mats for sandy or soft remote site pads where outriggers would sink.

Cell Tower And Telecom Crane Questions
Common questions about boom truck lifts for cell tower and telecom work on the Gulf Coast.
Our 40 ton boom trucks reach up to 175 feet tip height at standard offset. Send the tower height and the antenna position and we confirm the right truck for the reach. For higher tower work, we coordinate with a sub crane or sectional lift.
Yes. Most remote tower sites have soft or sandy pad conditions. We bring crane mats sized to the truck and the load when the ground needs the load spread. Tell us the pad conditions when you quote so we plan the right ground bearing setup.
Yes. Cell tower work runs on the carrier's outage window, not ours. Tell us the outage start and end and we line up the boom truck, the operator, and any rigging support inside that window. We confirm the dispatch the day before.
Yes. Cabinets, shelters, generators, and ground level equipment drops are common on tower sites. Send the shelter weight and dimensions and we confirm the right boom truck for the pad set.
