Cockburn is a city rather than a single suburb, and its lifting map is spread accordingly. The industrial weight sits in Bibra Lake, Jandakot and Henderson, from light manufacturing and logistics through to the Australian Marine Complex. Cockburn Central provides the commercial and residential centre, and the coastal strip through Munster and Spearwood adds cement works and established industry.
Joyce Krane covers the whole city from Kewdale, down the Kwinana Freeway with the crane matched to the precinct: Frannas and city cranes for estate work and town-centre construction, all terrains and crawlers when Henderson or the heavier yards call for tonnage. One phone call covers every postcode in the LGA.
Every Cockburn job gets the right crane for the lift, picked from the Perth fleet at our Kewdale yard: 2.93 tonne mini cranes through to 800 tonne heavy lift.
Reliable Franna cranes that pick a load and drive it across site, the workhorses of residential, commercial and yard work in tight spaces.
The top of our capacity range, including Liebherr models up to 800 tonnes. Road mobility plus serious lifting height and radius for major work.
Quick set-up and good reach, with the load and the crane arriving together on the one vehicle.
Tadano cranes purpose-built for unsealed, uneven and remote WA sites where standard mobile cranes can’t work.
Sustained heavy lifting on the one site, with tracked stability for long-duration work.
Compact cranes built for restricted-access work in built-up parts of Perth.
One of the first decisions on any project, and Joyce Krane offers both from Perth.
What we call taxi crane hire: the crane arrives with our own licensed operator and crew. The simplest, safest option for most one-off lifts.
You hire the crane and supply your own appropriately licensed operator. Best for established contractors needing a machine for an extended period.
A major strength of our Perth operation is the Joyce Krane Heavy Lift Division, based in Kewdale and operating Australia-wide. It runs high-capacity Liebherr all-terrain cranes including the LG 1800 and LTM 1750-9.1 at 800 tonnes, the LG 1750 at 750 tonnes and the LTM 1400-2.1 at 400 tonnes.
This is the fleet behind genuinely complex work: our teams have lifted over two hundred bridge beams and installed around three hundred wind turbine generators across construction, infrastructure, maritime and renewable projects. If your project sits beyond standard mobile crane capacity, talk to us early.
Heavy lifts reward planning.
Every Joyce Krane lift is backed by our in-house engineering team. Our engineers help you work through the craneage requirements of an upcoming special lift or future project.
They provide an unbiased, third-party review with clear recommendations, procedures and methodology designed to make the lift safer and more efficient. For Perth builders and project managers, that means you’re not just hiring a crane, you’re hiring the expertise to use it correctly.
Fifty years of lifting in some of Australia’s toughest environments. Trusted by major operators including Chevron, Rio Tinto and BHP.
Cockburn Central is about 24 km by road from our Kewdale yard, about 25 to 40 minutes via the Leach Highway and Kwinana Freeway, with the city’s estates spread within a few minutes either side of the run.

Crane hire in Cockburn is priced on the crane size, how long the lift takes, site access, and whether you need wet hire (crane with our licensed crew) or dry hire. Across a city this varied the crane choice drives the price, so tell us the precinct and the load and we will send the machine the job actually needs. Most bookings run on a minimum hire period, and travel from our Kewdale yard is quoted honestly for Cockburn rather than padded. Call 1300 956 923 for a fixed price.
Lifting from private property in Cockburn usually needs no permit. If the crane must set up on a road, footpath or laneway, a road occupancy or standing plant approval from the City of Cockburn is generally required, along with traffic control, and Main Roads WA approval can apply on classified roads. We arrange the permits, traffic management and lift plan as part of the job.
Our Perth yard at Kewdale is about 24 km by road from Cockburn, about 25 to 40 minutes. The freeway run puts most of the City of Cockburn about half an hour from the yard, well inside same-day range for urgent lifts. For urgent and after-hours work, our 24/7 emergency crane service covers Cockburn as well.
Tell us the load, the Cockburn site and the timeline, and we’ll recommend the right crane and a safe, cost-effective plan to get it placed. Our Perth team is at 455 Belmont Avenue, Kewdale WA 6105.
