Eastside Crane Hire

Eastside Crane Hire, established in the mid-1980s, is Norlane's leading provider of modern hydraulic mobile cranes. Originally founded by Don Hemsworth, the company was acquired in 2007 by Gibb McKay, owner and Director of Williamstown Crane Hire. Since the acquisition, the fleet has undergone significant modernisation, adding seven new cranes under five years old, reducing the average fleet age from 13 to 8 years. Our extensive fleet includes mini cranes, city cranes, Franna cranes, truck cranes, and all-terrain cranes.

Our commitment to delivering first-class service to clients sets us apart in the crane hire industry. With a well-equipped team and a regularly audited fleet, we maintain the highest standards of safety and reliability. We proudly serve diverse sectors, including manufacturing, petrochemical, wharf services, and construction. Our goal is to operate the most efficient and modern crane fleet in Melbourne and Geelong, including Norlane, while continuously expanding our reputation nationwide.

Eastside Crane Hire offers a wide range of services, including building moving, dismantling, general lifting, machinery moving, and panel erection. We supply various crane types to accommodate commercial, industrial, residential, and mobile projects. Our team is dedicated to maintaining safe work practices and exceeding health and safety standards. We continue to grow and innovate while upholding strong business ethics and a commitment to customer satisfaction, ensuring long-term relationships with clients and stakeholders.
