Operated Crane Service
From Three Louisiana Yards
Every operated crane dispatch includes the truck, the operator, standard rigging, and the lift plan. We coordinate with your crew, the building owner, and any other trades on site to keep the work moving on schedule.
HVAC units, generators, mechanical equipment, signs, billboards, antennas, steel members, residential condensers, swim spas, boats, trees, and the odd job that needs a boom truck for a couple of hours. Standard outrigger pads on every dispatch, crane mats for soft ground.
Three yards covering the Gulf Coast: New Orleans and the surrounding metro, Lafayette, Baton Rouge, the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and Southeast Texas. Most jobs are within two hours of a yard.
Seven National Crane boom trucks from 18 to 40 tons. The right truck dispatched for the lift, every time, with NCCCO certified operators on board.

Operated Crane Service Questions
Common questions about how Heave-Ho runs operated crane service on the Gulf Coast.
Every operated crane dispatch includes the boom truck, an NCCCO certified operator, standard rigging hardware, the lift plan, and the dispatch coordination. We come ready to lift. Additional rigging or crane mats get scoped at the quote stage if your site needs them.
Crane rental typically means equipment only. You bring the operator, you run the lift, you handle the rigging. Operated crane service means we bring the truck, the operator, and the lift plan. You tell us what to lift and we make the lift happen.
Standard rigging hardware comes on every dispatch. We can run the rigging ourselves with a qualified rigger or work alongside your rigging crew. For specialty rigging, we scope the gear at the quote stage.
Same day for most calls in the New Orleans, Lafayette or Baton Rouge area if we hear from you before noon. Next morning dispatch for late day calls or jobs farther out. Emergency and storm response runs 24 hours a day from three yards.
We carry general liability and commercial auto coverage with limits sized for refinery, commercial, and residential work. We name your company as additional insured on a per job basis at no extra cost. COI requests come back the same business day.
