If you’re working on a site with rough, sloped or muddy ground, a standard wheeled crane might not cut it. That’s where crawler cranes really shine. Built with stability and traction in mind, these machines are designed to handle the kind of challenging terrain that would stop other cranes in their tracks.
At Used Mini Cranes, we’ve got a range of quality used crawler cranes for sale, ideal for jobs that need strength, balance and mobility all in one.
Why choose a crawler crane?
Made for tricky ground
Crawler cranes move on wide tracks instead of wheels, which helps spread their weight more evenly. This makes them perfect for working on soft, uneven or loose surfaces where wheeled cranes might struggle. Whether it's a muddy field or a rough construction site, crawler cranes stay steady without needing outriggers.
No need for extra setup
Because of their design, crawler cranes can often start work without the usual prep. There's no need to lay down mats or stabilisers, which can save you time and hassle on site.
Strong lifting power in a compact size
Don’t let their size fool you! Crawler cranes can handle heavy loads with ease. They’re especially handy in tight spaces or areas where access is restricted, thanks to their compact build and impressive reach.
