Crane hire for Hornsby and the upper north shore: station-precinct development, industrial units around Asquith, and the steep, tree-heavy blocks that make bushland-suburb lifts a specialty.

CRANE HIRE HORNSBY
Mobile Crane Hire in Hornsby
Hornsby anchors the upper north shore where the suburbs meet the bush, and its crane work has two distinct personalities. In the centre, apartment development around the station and Westfield keeps steel, facade and plant lifts coming, with the industrial units toward Asquith adding machinery and rooftop work. Out in the streets, it is bushland-suburb lifting: steep driveways, tall gums, long reaches over houses to pools, decks and roofing.
We plan Hornsby from St Marys via the M7 and M2, and treat tree canopies and slope as first-class inputs to every residential lift plan. The crane that works in Penrith does not always work in Hornsby, and we choose accordingly.

OUR FLEET
Our Crane Fleet: 2.93 to 300 Tonnes
Every Hornsby job gets the smallest crane that does it safely, picked from the Sydney fleet at St Marys: 2.93 tonne mini cranes through to 300 tonne all terrains.
Pick & Carry (Franna) Cranes
Reliable Franna cranes that pick a load and drive it across site, the workhorses of residential, commercial and yard work in tight Sydney spaces.
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 Sydney builders and project managers, that means you’re not just hiring a crane, you’re hiring the expertise to use it correctly.
Hornsby is about 40 km by road from our depot, about 35 to 55 minutes via the M7 and M2. Residential lifts book as planned morning starts; project work follows site windows in the station precinct.

Joyce Krane's mobile heavy lift cranes were on site with short notice. The staff were friendly and did a great job safely, professionally and within budget.
Crane hire in Hornsby 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. On the upper north shore, trees and slope set the lift geometry, so the crane is sized for reach over canopy rather than raw tonnage, and a couple of photos make every quote sharper. Most bookings run on a minimum hire period, and travel from our St Marys depot is quoted honestly for Hornsby rather than padded. Call 1300 956 923 for a fixed price.
Lifting from private property in Hornsby usually needs no permit. If the crane must set up on a road, footpath or laneway, a road occupancy or standing plant approval from Hornsby Shire Council is generally required, along with traffic control, and Transport for NSW approval can apply on classified roads. We arrange the permits, traffic management and lift plan as part of the job.
Our Sydney depot at St Marys is about 40 km by road from Hornsby, about 35 to 55 minutes. Hornsby is a 40 minute run from the yard, scheduled rather than instant, with morning starts the norm before commuter traffic builds. For urgent and after-hours work, our 24/7 emergency crane service covers Hornsby as well.
Usually, yes. We plan the boom path over or between canopies, use the reach of a larger city or all terrain crane where needed, and where branches genuinely block the path we tell you honestly before you spend a dollar.
