Get the Plan in Place

To move heavy, expensive material, you need to get the
strategy right first.
 
Every construction site presents unique challenges.
Materials are often awkward, heavy, and expensive --
and contractors need to have a strategy for moving
and lifting to keep both the materials and the
workers safe. 
 
A successful strategy involves both the right equipment and the right operators. At Drum
Crane, our union-qualified team has the experience
to recommend the best methods for moving and staging even the most cumbersome building materials. It all starts with good planning.
 
We’ll work hand-in-hand with site engineers and general contractors, as well as skilled tradesmen, to come up with the right equipment and lifting methods for each job. Will heavy loads have to be lifted into awkward or difficult spaces? How will the transportation of the materials affect public walkways and common areas? Could power, water, or gas lines be compromised? These are things that must be considered before equipment can start moving heavy materials on site. Planning like this not only helps save money and prevent loss or downtime, it can absolutely help safeguard the well-being of people on the site (both workers and civilians).
 
The right crane, coupled with a union-qualified operator, can move and place cumbersome and heavy materials quickly and efficiently. Stacking, lifting, storing, moving—there are a wide variety of cranes available, and we have the expertise to match the right equipment and the right operator to your job. 
 
The next time you need to move materials on a construction job, consult with us first. Drum Crane uses only union-trained operators, so you can trust us to assess your project and come up with the right strategy to protect your materials, keep your crew safe, and increase your productivity.
