Small Crane Prices in 2025
Key Factors Driving Small Crane Prices The cost of a small crane isn’t a single number; it’s a spectrum influenced by several critical elements: Crane Type & Design: Mobile Cranes (Truck-Mounted, Rough Terrain, All-Terrain): Prices vary massively based on lifting capacity (e.g., 5-ton vs. 25-ton), boom length, chassis type (standard truck vs. specialized), and features like telescopic booms or jibs. Expect $50,000 to $250,000+ for new units. Mini/Micro Cranes: Highly compact, often electric or hydraulic, designed for confined spaces (e.g., Spider Cranes, Compact Crawlers). Prices range from $15,000 to $100,000+ depending on capacity (1-5 tons common) and reach. Fixed Cranes (Jib Cranes, Wall Cranes, Gantry Cranes): Simpler design, often lower cost. Prices start around $1,000 for very small capacity manual jib cranes and can reach $50,000+ for larger, powered gantry systems. Articulating Cranes (Knuckle Booms): Known for flexibility in tight spaces. New prices typically start around $30,000 for smaller models and exceed $150,000 for higher capacity units. Lifting Capacity & Reach: The most fundamental driver. A 1-ton capacity jib crane costs significantly less than a 10-ton capacity mini crawler crane. Similarly, a crane with a 20-foot max lift height is cheaper than one with a 60-foot reach. Power Source & Features: Electric vs. Diesel/Hydraulic: Electric...
