Construction and Building Projects
One of the most common instances where crane hire services are essential is during construction projects. Whether you're working on a residential, commercial, or industrial building, cranes are indispensable for lifting heavy materials such as steel beams, concrete blocks, and prefabricated components. MTS Crane Services offers a variety of cranes suitable for different construction needs, ensuring that contractors can move materials swiftly and safely.
Cranes are also utilised in high-rise construction projects, where they are used to transport materials vertically across floors. We will asses and send the right crane which will ensure that construction timelines are met without compromising safety. When building infrastructure such as bridges, roads, or tunnels, crane hire becomes even more crucial due to the complexity and size of materials involved.


Industrial Maintenance and Equipment Installation
Machinery and equipment often need to be installed or maintained. These machines can weigh several tons, making it impossible to move them without the assistance of a crane. MTS Crane Services specialises in machinery relocation and installation, offering cranes capable of safely handling heavy-duty equipment.
Cranes are frequently used to install industrial boilers, generators, turbines, and other heavy machinery in manufacturing plants and factories. Additionally, they play a crucial role in performing routine maintenance, repairs, or replacements, especially in hard-to-reach areas where traditional equipment cannot suffice.
Infrastructure and Civil Engineering Projects
Infrastructure projects such as bridges, railways, highways, and water treatment plants require the use of cranes to transport and position large, heavy materials like girders, pipes, and slabs. Crane hire services are vital during the initial stages of construction, where foundations and major structural components are laid out, and continue to be indispensable during various phases of the project.
MTS Crane Services understands the importance of precise planning and logistical coordination in infrastructure development. Their fleet of cranes, including mobile and all-terrain models, allows for smooth and efficient lifting operations, even in challenging environments like rugged or uneven terrains commonly found across Connacht.


Wind Energy and Renewable Projects
As Connacht continues to embrace renewable energy solutions, wind farms are becoming more common across the region. The installation of wind turbines requires the use of specialized cranes capable of lifting and positioning massive turbine components, such as blades and nacelles, which can weigh several tons and must be positioned at great heights.
MTS Crane Services offers customised crane solutions for wind farm installations and renewable energy projects, providing the equipment necessary to lift and assemble turbine components with precision. Their experience in the renewable energy sector ensures that wind turbine installations are carried out efficiently and safely, contributing to the region's growing clean energy landscape.
