Boom Truck Rental
Boom Truck Rental
A boom truck mounts a hydraulic crane on a truck deck, so it drives to site, places its own load from the bed and moves on — the most efficient choice for medium lifts that are spread across a route or a city. It sets HVAC units, signs, roofing material, utility gear and precast where a full mobile crane is more than the job needs. Kranes arranges the unit rental, operated or bare, matched to your capacity and reach.

A boom truck — also called a boom truck crane — mounts a hydraulic crane behind the cab of a commercial truck, so the unit drives to site, unloads its own cargo from the deck and places it without a separate crane. Articulating (knuckle boom) cranes fold compactly and reach over obstacles; telescopic booms extend straight for height and radius. Bucket and pickup-truck variants add a man-basket or a lighter chassis, so boom truck rental scales from utility service work up to medium structural picks. The boom truck earns its keep on jobs that are spread out rather than concentrated.
Boom Truck Rental — Configurations
It sets rooftop HVAC, signs, roofing and curtain-wall material, utility poles and transformers, precast and mechanical gear — moving from address to address far more efficiently than a crane that needs a lowboy to relocate. Crane truck rental is the efficient middle ground: more reach and capacity than a forklift, less cost and setup than a full mobile crane, with the load carried on the same deck that does the lifting. Sizing a boom truck comes down to the load, the lift height and radius, and the access at each stop. Kranes matches the deck size, the crane rating and the rigging, operated or bare, then confirms the unit can legally carry the cargo it will place.
Applications
Boom truck rental runs by the day, the route or the project, and a certified operator is available where the picks or the site require one, so the unit is productive the moment it arrives. A truck-mounted crane is still regulated lifting equipment, inspected and certified like any crane in the fleet. Kranes documents units to CSA and provincial standards, keeps hydraulic, control and rigging parts on hand, and services the crane and the carrier together. Tell us the loads, the stops and the dates, and we return a quote for the right boom truck crane — with the operation and support to keep the route moving across Canada.

Questions about Boom Truck Rental
How much does crane rental cost?
There's no honest flat rate — crane rental (or crane hire) is priced per job. The main drivers are the crane class and capacity, how long you need it (hourly, daily, weekly or by project), whether you need a certified operator, the rigging required, and site access. A small boom-truck pick costs a fraction of a multi-day mobile or tower-crane job. Rather than quote a misleading average, Kranes prices your exact lift: send the load, the radius, the lift height and the timing, and we return a clear, itemised quote within 24 hours so you can budget with confidence.
How much does it cost to hire a boom truck per day?
Daily boom-truck rates depend on the crane's capacity and reach, whether a certified operator is included, the rigging, and how far the truck travels to your site. A boom truck is usually the most economical option for medium lifts spread across a route — setting HVAC units, signs or roofing material — because it drives itself to the job and loads from its own deck. Tell Kranes the load, the lift height and the access, and we quote the right deck and crane rating for the day or the project.
How much can a boom truck carry?
It depends entirely on the model and, crucially, the radius — a boom truck lifts far more close to the truck than at full extension. Capacity is read from the crane's load chart, which accounts for boom length, angle and outrigger setup, not a single headline number. Common boom trucks range from a few tonnes up to higher-capacity articulating and stiff-boom units. Kranes matches the boom truck to your heaviest pick at its working radius, so the machine that arrives can actually make the lift safely.
What does "crane services" mean?
"Crane services" covers everything around getting a load lifted safely beyond just the machine: supplying the crane (sale or rental), providing certified operators, planning and engineering the lift, rigging, and the ongoing maintenance, inspection, certification and parts that keep a crane compliant. As the nationwide supplier, Kranes covers all of it — sales, rental, service and parts — from one request. You describe the job; we provide the crane and the certified support to complete it, then keep it running afterward.
