Where a truck crane earns its keep
- Structural steel for shops, warehouses, canopies and mezzanines along US-75 and US-82.
- Equipment sets for plant suppliers and manufacturers: compressors, generators, transformers, tanks.
- Rooftop units and chillers on two-story and larger commercial buildings, where a boom truck runs out of reach.
- Precast, vaults and utility items on paved lots and finished sites.
- Multi-stop days where the crane needs to move between sites quickly on the road.
Sizing a truck crane
Size comes from the load chart, not a guess. The three numbers that matter are the weight of the heaviest pick plus rigging, the radius from the crane's center of rotation to the landing spot, and the height the load has to clear. A 5,000 lb unit at 90 feet of radius can need more crane than a 15,000 lb load set 25 feet off the truck. Send those numbers, plus photos of where the crane can park, and the operator sizes it on the first pass.
Site prep that keeps the clock down
- A level setup spot with room for the full outrigger spread. Tell the operator about new asphalt, curbs and drains.
- Overhead lines identified. OSHA's power line rules can force a setup farther away.
- Load unbolted, disconnected and ready to rig before the crane arrives.
- Street or alley setup cleared with the city in advance.
Typical cost
One North Texas company's 2025 rate sheet lists operated hydraulic cranes at $205/hour (40-ton) to $355/hour (100-ton), with a 4-hour minimum, plus fuel surcharge, travel and permits. Those are typical published rates, not quotes. See crane operator rates. Lighter job? A boom truck may do it for less; compare in crane vs. boom truck.

Truck crane FAQ
What is a truck crane?
A hydraulic crane mounted on its own road-going carrier. It drives to the job at highway speed, sets up on outriggers and telescopes its boom out to make the lift. Boom trucks are the lighter cousin, built on a commercial truck chassis.
How big are truck cranes?
Hydraulic truck cranes commonly run from about 30 to 100+ tons of rated capacity. Remember that rating applies close in; capacity drops quickly as the boom extends, so your radius matters as much as your weight.
Truck crane or all-terrain crane?
Truck cranes are typically the economical choice for paved or firm sites and moderate loads. All-terrain cranes have more axles, all-wheel drive and steering, and usually more capacity at distance. See rough-terrain and all-terrain cranes.
Can a truck crane set up in the street?
Often, yes. Their compact setup makes them a common choice for street and parking-lot setups. In Sherman, using a street, alley or sidewalk usually needs city right-of-way approval. See crane permits in Sherman.
