Cell Tower And Telecom Crane Services
Coordinated Around Tower Climb Schedules

We handle cell tower and telecom crane work across the Northeast. From antenna swaps to monopole and lattice tower installs, we plan around the climb schedule, the carrier outage window, and the access road into the site. Lattice boom configurations for the high reaches, planning calls before mobilization, and operators who have run telecom lifts many times before.

Cell Tower Lift Services

Crane Rentals For Cell Tower And Telecom Work

Telecom work runs on outage windows and tower climb schedules. We plan the lift around the access road, the staging space at the tower base, and the carrier window your crew has to work in. Lattice boom configurations get the reach, and our operators run picks for tower hands without dropped time.

Our Experience With Cell Tower Work

We have run cell tower lifts across the Northeast for decades. Antenna swaps on monopoles, equipment cabinet placements at the base, microwave dish installs at the top of lattice towers. The patterns repeat, and our planning process is built around them. Operators arrive with the lift sequenced for the climb crew.

Services

Operated crane, rigging, hauling, and storage all run through one Aero team. The crew that books the lift also handles the rig plan, the transport, and the staging.

Areas We Serve

Aero crews dispatch from South Windsor across Connecticut, Rhode Island, western Massachusetts, and southern Vermont. Equipment is matched to the site distance, road access, and lift requirements before the crane leaves the yard.

Fleet Capacity

The fleet spans 25-ton carry decks to 770-ton all-terrain Liebherrs, with boom trucks, truck cranes, and forklifts in between. Each crane is matched to the load, the site access, and the schedule of your job.

Process

How We Execute Cell Tower Crane Work

For cell tower and telecom lifts, we align early with your team to confirm the equipment specs, the tower access road, and the carrier outage window. Then we plan the rigging, coordinate with your climb crew, and execute the lift inside the window.

Confirm Tower And Access Details

We confirm the tower height and type, the equipment weight, the access road into the site, and the carrier outage window the work has to fit.

Match The Right Crane And Setup

We size the crane to the tower height, the staging space at the base, and the lift radius needed for the equipment placement. Lattice boom configurations for the high reaches.

Coordinate With Climb Crew And Carrier

We sequence the lift around the climb crew, the carrier window, and any landlord access requirements at the site. Pre-lift call covers radio communication and pick sequencing.

Execute And Close Out

On the day of, we run the pre-lift checklist, set the equipment on schedule with the climb crew, and clear the site. Demobilization is timed to release the access road back to the landlord.

Tell Us About Your Next Tower Lift

Send the tower specs, the equipment list, and the carrier outage window. We will match the crane to the work and lock in the climb day.

Cell Tower Crane FAQs

Questions telecom contractors and tower crews ask before booking a lift.

What Telecom Equipment Do You Lift?

Antennas, microwave dishes, equipment cabinets, RRUs, monopole sections, lattice tower components, and stealth structures. We size the crane to the equipment weight, the tower height, and the access road conditions.

Can You Coordinate With Carrier Outage Windows?

Yes. Telecom work runs on carrier-approved outage windows. We schedule operators around your window and stay on site until the climb crew has finished the swap.

Do You Reach The Top Of A Lattice Tower?

We size the crane to the tower height. Tall lattice work uses our All-Terrain fleet with the right boom and jib configuration. We confirm the lift chart against the tower height before mobilizing.

What Sizes Of Cranes Do You Use For Tower Work?

Boom trucks (45 to 55 ton) for low-rise rooftop sites and short monopoles. Truck cranes (60 ton) for mid-range work. All-Terrain cranes (110 to 770 ton) for tall lattice towers and stealth installs requiring extended boom and jib.

How Far In Advance Should I Book A Tower Lift?

1 to 2 weeks of lead time secures most antenna swaps and equipment cabinet placements. Larger tower component lifts requiring extended boom benefit from 3 to 4 weeks. Emergency response work is quoted when our schedule allows.
