22.01.2022 Here is some footage the Gladstone team took at Port Alma just over a week ago unloading Bulka Bags using their Grove GMK5130-2. Each lift was between 15t & 16t including a 10 bag lifting frame. A total of 3,500 bags were offloaded over 7 shifts, 24hrs per day. Very impressive!!

21.01.2022 Some fantastic photos from a job last Sunday in Queen Street in Brisbane CBD of our 450T Grove GMK7450 at work and also our 40T Franna mobilising the 450T crane! #brisbane #brisbanecity #brisbaneanyday #cranes #universalcranes

19.01.2022 A few lucky fans will be shouting Oh What A Feeling! while they are relaxing in these Hilux lounges at tomorrow’s AFL Grand Final at The Gabba! Our MAC25 Franna made it possible by lifting these lounges and a full size Toyota Hilux into the Hilux Fan Zone earlier this week in preparation. Who are you cheering for this weekend? #footyfinals #aflgrandfinal #brisbane #universalcranes #ohwhatafeeling #toyota #hilux #geelongcats #richmondtigers Franna - A Terex Brand

17.01.2022 The Universal Cranes Projects and Heavy Lift division has been supporting our valued client Vestas on some wind farm maintenance this month. Our 300t Liebherr LR1300W crawler crane equipped with 110m main boom derrick and suspended ballast tray is on site at the Mt Emerald Wind Farm, owned by RATCH Australia, located approximately 50km outside of Cairns in Queensland. If you have any upcoming maintenance requirements in the wind industry be sure to get in contact with the Universal Cranes Projects and Heavy Lift division for pricing and support. #windfarm #windenergy #heavylifting #crawlercrane #universalcranes #vestas

17.01.2022 Universal Cranes Pty Ltd and Bruce Highway Upgrade Caloundra Road to Sunshine Motorway (CR2SM) recently collaborated to complete the new pedestrian footpath at Sippy Downs. The work included the installation of 4 x 72 tonne, 32 metre concrete girders over a 2 night schedule which included the closure of the Sunshine Motorway, performed with our Grove GMK7450 requiring 160 tonne countweights and Mega Wing. The entire team were outstanding, completing the first girder install...ation and completely demobilising the 450 tonne crane, then relocating into a tricky second lift location and partially remobilising. The second night closure of the Sunshine Motorway allowed for the completion of the 450 tonne crane’s mobilisation over the road and the installation of the final two girders. The assistance of our 25 tonne Franna crane, including removal of PCB’s & shifting of equipment was crucial in achieving the project’s goals with a tight timeframe. Many thanks to the entire CR2SM and Universal Cranes team for their fantastic attitude and collective efforts in achieving a great outcome for the final bridge installation on the CR2SM project.

11.01.2022 Giving our mates at Spaceframe Buildings a hand with a lift! This site office is heading off to a new Officeworks outlet

08.01.2022 Earlier this week, Universal Cranes had the privilege to work with the team at Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Brisbane and The Calile Hotel to lift the impressive Rolls-Royce Ghost Extended for its unveiling. Our team secured the car (very carefully!) to a sturdy base plate and used a spreader bar and sling set up, along with our 100T crane to ensure a safe lift 7 stories up onto the roof of The Calile Hotel in Fortitude Valley. The lift was executed perfectly - great work Casey and team!

07.01.2022 Wishing everyone a safe and happy festive season

05.01.2022 This week saw us deliver a custom home to Maroochy River. Placed as a secondary dwelling, this home features two bedrooms with raked ceilings throughout, ope...n plan living, galley kitchen, study nook and wrap around verandah. Designed with the tropics in mind, cool summer breezes flow easily throughout the home and the spacious verandah makes outdoor entertaining easy. Positioned among the trees, our client ended up with her very own tree-house with gorgeous leafy views from every window - Doesn't it look amazing? Needless to say, our client was very very happy and super excited to move in! Thanks to our awesome crew, install team and transporters for making this a smooth delivery!

03.01.2022 We love helping our mates at Plungie Australia getting their pools into all sorts of places. The latest lift made sure this plunge pool made its way safely and proudly on display at Metricon Stadium! Good job team

02.01.2022 Safety first for this precious cargo... Fastened securely to a sturdy, flat base the Rolls-Royce Ghost also had an expertly engineered rigging set up for an extra safe lift. This might not be the heaviest thing we've lifted, but it sure ranks high up there as one of the nicer things!

02.01.2022 Check out a recent lift at Tabulam Bridge in northern NSW. Our GMK7450 450T crane with mega wing came down from Brisbane to remove the old Tabulam Bridge. We lifted multiple bridge spans, with bridge span 1 weighing in at 46.6T! #infrastructure #cranes #liftingsolutions #universalcranes
