What is a rough-terrain crane?
A rough-terrain crane has large tyres, four-wheel drive and a compact carrier designed for unpaved, sandy or uneven ground. It is the usual choice for lifting on construction, oil and gas and industrial sites where road-going cranes struggle. Ferry Global Logistics rents rough-terrain cranes and transports them to site on its own trucks.
Best for
- Unpaved, sandy and uneven sites
- Oil and gas and industrial plant work

Frequently asked questions
Can a rough-terrain crane drive to site?
Rough-terrain cranes are built for site work and are normally delivered on a trailer. We plan the transport as part of the hire.
What sizes of mobile crane do you have?
Our mobile crane fleet covers 25, 50, 70/80, 100 and 130 ton cranes.
Do you rent cranes in Abu Dhabi and Dubai?
Yes. We hire cranes from our base in MBZ City, Abu Dhabi, for jobs across all seven emirates.
What do you need to recommend a crane?
The load weight with rigging, the lift radius and height, the site's access and ground conditions, and the hire period. Photos of the load and site help.
Can you also transport the load?
Yes. Heavy truck transport is one of our licensed services, so lifting and transport can be planned as one job.
