From installing rooftop HVAC units to relocating entire production lines, crane services play a pivotal role in keeping industries moving. At LMM, we provide crane solutions designed to meet the unique needs of manufacturers, contractors, and plant managers across Southeast Michigan and Northern Ohio.
In this article, we break down the industries we serve, the types of crane services available, and how our team ensures every lift is safe, efficient, and cost-effective.
What Are Crane Services?
Crane services involve the use of mobile, tower, or overhead cranes to lift, position, or transport heavy equipment and structures. These services are essential when weight, height, or access restrictions prevent conventional lifting or moving methods.
Common crane services include:
- Equipment lifting and placement
- Structural steel erection
- Rooftop unit installation
- Modular building placement
- Machinery rigging support
At LMM, our crane fleet and certified operators handle both routine and complex lifts with precision.
