Cranes and Lifting Equipment for Rent in Dhahran

What to consider when renting cranes and lifting equipment

A few checks before you request a quote for cranes and lifting equipment in Dhahran save time later:

• Ask for the current inspection certificate of the lifting equipment and the certification of the operator and rigger before the machine is mobilised.
• Check what the rate includes: fuel, operator, insurance, consumables and the supplier's breakdown response.
• Rates on Arabian Tool are in SAR and exclude VAT, so ask whether your quote is inclusive or exclusive.

Types of cranes and lifting equipment

Choose the type first for the job in hand, then open its page for the available sizes and brands. This group has 9 types: mobile cranes, crawler cranes, tower cranes, rough terrain cranes, all-terrain cranes, truck-mounted cranes, forklifts, telehandlers and reach stackers.

• Crawler Cranes: Cranes mounted on tracks, usually with a lattice boom, that lift and travel with a load on prepared ground.
• All-Terrain Cranes: Multi-axle cranes that combine the road speed of a truck crane with the off-road ability of a rough-terrain crane, with a telescopic boom and all-wheel steering.
• Truck-Mounted Cranes: A hydraulic crane, knuckle-boom or telescopic, fitted to a standard truck chassis, so the same vehicle carries the load, drives to site and lifts.
• Forklifts: Powered industrial trucks with forks on a vertical mast for lifting, moving and stacking pallets and palletised loads.

What affects the price of renting cranes and lifting equipment

Two quotes for cranes and lifting equipment can differ widely for good reasons. Check these factors when you compare:

• Operator and fuel: check whether the rate is for the machine alone or includes an operator, fuel and overtime.
• Site and access: remote sites, restricted access and special permits can add cost.
• Machine size and age: larger, newer or better-equipped machines are priced higher.
