Crane Hire Sydney › Hurstville
Crane hire in Hurstville’s high-rise CBD and across the St George area: rooftop plant, facade materials, spas onto towers and the tight-street lifts a dense suburb demands.
National since 1974 · Sydney depot at St Marys · 60+ cranes · 2.93–300t · CICA member
Hurstville has built itself into the high-rise capital of Sydney’s south, and its crane work is vertical to match: plant and HVAC onto tower roofs, facade and glazing packages, spas and landscaping onto podium levels, and steel for the commercial buildings around Forest Road. The streets below are tight, busy and short on set-up room, which is exactly the environment our city cranes and operators specialise in.
From St Marys we plan Hurstville lifts around Georges River Council permit windows and, for the bigger towers, early weekend starts when the streets can actually be closed. It is planned-start territory, and the planning is the difference between a two hour lift and a wasted morning.
Every Hurstville 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.
Reliable Franna cranes that pick a load and drive it across site, the workhorses of residential, commercial and yard work in tight Sydney spaces.
The top of our capacity range, including Liebherr models up to 300 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 and uneven sites where standard mobile cranes can’t work.
Compact cranes, down to our 2.93-tonne mini, designed for restricted-access work in built-up parts of Sydney.
One of the first decisions on any project, and Joyce Krane offers both from Sydney.
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.
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.
Hurstville is about 50 km by road from our depot, about 45 to 65 minutes via the M4 and King Georges Road. Tower lifts here are permit-window jobs, so the crane schedule follows the approvals, usually early mornings or weekends.

Crane hire in Hurstville 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. Hurstville tower lifts usually price around the road closure: traffic control, permits and an early window, with the crane hours themselves often the smaller share. Most bookings run on a minimum hire period, and travel from our St Marys depot is quoted honestly for Hurstville rather than padded. Call 1300 956 923 for a fixed price.
Lifting from private property in Hurstville usually needs no permit. If the crane must set up on a road, footpath or laneway, a road occupancy or standing plant approval from Georges River Council is generally required, along with traffic control, and Transport for NSW approval can apply on classified roads. Tower lifts in the Hurstville CBD typically need road occupancy approvals from Georges River Council and often out-of-hours windows, which we apply for as part of the job. We arrange the permits, traffic management and lift plan as part of the job.
Our Sydney depot at St Marys is about 50 km by road from Hurstville, about 45 to 65 minutes. The run from our yard is about 50 minutes, but CBD lifts are scheduled around permits rather than travel, so Hurstville jobs are booked ahead. For urgent and after-hours work, our 24/7 emergency crane service covers Hurstville as well.
Tell us the load, the Hurstville site and the timeline, and we’ll recommend the right crane and a safe, cost-effective plan to get it placed. Our Sydney team is at 11 Severn Street, St Marys NSW 2760.
