Hiab Truck Hire Melbourne
Need lifting and transport handled in one job? Ultimate Crane Trucks provides Hiab truck hire in Melbourne for suitable construction materials, machinery, containers and other loads that require lifting, transport and controlled placement. Send us the load type, approximate weight and dimensions, pickup and delivery locations and site access details so we can assess the right setup for your job.
Most projects become harder to coordinate when lifting and transport are handled separately. Ultimate Crane Trucks provides Hiab truck hire in Melbourne for suitable loads that need lifting, transport and placement as part of the same job.
A Hiab crane truck, also known as a truck-mounted crane or knuckle boom crane, can be useful where materials need to be lifted from the ground, loaded onto the truck, transported and positioned at the destination. This can reduce extra handling and simplify jobs where access, timing or placement matters.
Common uses include construction materials, machinery, farm equipment, timber, scaffolding, site sheds, spas, water tanks, air conditioning units and wall or roof trusses. Whether the job is residential, commercial, industrial or agricultural, the right setup depends on the load, lifting points, site access and delivery position.
Before confirming a job, send us the load type, approximate weight and dimensions, pickup and delivery locations, access details and any relevant photos. This helps us assess whether a Hiab truck is suitable and how the job should be planned.
A Hiab crane truck can be suitable for:
- Residential construction materials, spas and air conditioning units
- Commercial and industrial loads such as steel, scaffolding and machinery
- Agricultural machinery and equipment
- Site sheds, pallets, wall frames and roof trusses

Hiab Truck Hire Based on Your Lifting Requirements
The right crane truck setup depends on the load, site access, lifting points and where the item needs to be placed. Ultimate Crane Trucks reviews these details before confirming whether a Hiab truck is suitable for the job.
For suitable work, the truck can lift single items up to 2.4 tonnes, carry a total load of up to 10 tonnes per trip and take loads up to 7.2 metres long. The crane has a maximum reach of 15 metres, but lifting capacity reduces as the reach increases, so the weight of the item and how far it needs to be placed from the truck both matter. An operator is included with every Hiab truck hire.
Hiab truck hire can suit jobs where lifting, transport and placement need to happen as one coordinated job. Typical work can include machinery, construction materials, site sheds, steel frames, solar panels, water tanks, generators, signage and other suitable equipment.
For a more accurate assessment, send the load type, approximate weight and dimensions, pickup and delivery locations, site access details, lifting points if known and clear photos of the load and work area.

Hiab Truck Hire in Melbourne for Lifting, Transport and Placement
Hiab truck hire is useful when a load needs more than simple delivery. Ultimate Crane Trucks can lift, transport and position suitable loads as part of one coordinated job, which can reduce extra handling at the pickup and delivery sites.
This can work well for machinery, steel, pallets, construction materials and other awkward loads where access is limited or the item needs controlled placement. The setup depends on the load weight and dimensions, available lifting points, ground conditions, truck access and the final delivery position.
For machinery moves, our machinery transport service can help with suitable construction, industrial and agricultural equipment. For other specialised loads, we can also assess site sheds, water tanks, wall and roof trusses and similar items that need crane-assisted transport.
Each job is assessed individually so the truck setup matches the load and site conditions rather than using the same approach for every move.
Hiab Truck Hire for Real Melbourne Job Sites
Ultimate Crane Trucks supports a range of residential, commercial and industrial jobs across Melbourne where loads need to be lifted, transported and positioned carefully.
Common jobs can include solar panels, air conditioning units, timber, landscaping materials, water tanks, machinery, site equipment and other suitable loads. These jobs often involve limited access, awkward load shapes or delivery points where controlled placement matters.
The right setup depends on the load weight and dimensions, available lifting points, truck access, ground conditions and the final placement area. Clear photos and accurate job details help us assess the work before confirming the booking.
For suitable loads, Hiab truck hire can combine lifting, transport and placement in one coordinated service so the job can move from pickup to final position with less unnecessary handling.
