October 14, 2014 - The ALL Family of Cos. has expanded their fleet of rough-terrain, all-terrain, and hydraulic truck cranes with the addition of seven Grove machines. The Grove acquisitions will strengthen the ALL Family of Cos.’ fleet from Louisiana to Canada and across the Midwest, according to the company.

The complete package of cranes – all purchased within one month – includes a 550-ton GMK7550, Grove’s largest mobile all-terrain hydraulic crane; a 350-ton GMK6300L all-terrain crane, a heavy-lifting truck crane that offers some of the strongest lifting abilities of any six-axle AT. Also purchased were two 110-ton TMS9000E truck-mounted cranes, each featuring a five-section full-power boom; two 90-ton RT890E rough-terrain cranes, each with a five-section, full-power boom and removable counterweight; and a 50- to 60-ton TMS700E hydraulic truck-mounted crane with a four-section, full-power MEGAFORM boom.

 

This new equipment will add flexibility and greater availability for work in several high-demand geographic areas, according to ALL, which notes that the two RT890E 90-tonners are slated for immediate wind farm work in Illinois. The TMS700E is headed to ALL Crane Rental of Pennsylvania, ready to handle complex lifts in industrial plants. The TMS9000E is going to ALL Crane Rental of Louisiana, adding capacity to the branch’s expanding taxi-crane fleet.

 

“We continually monitor the age, size, and capacity range of our standing fleet at all of our yards, and then balance this against local and regional demand,” says Michael Liptak, ALL Erection & Crane Rental president. “Expanding our fleet with these seven new Groves makes an impact at a time when demand is very high.”

 

ALL claims to have one of the largest fleets of cranes and other lifting equipment in North America. With the company’s 37 branches, the purchase of these new Grove cranes is in line with ALL’s continued dedication to offering an unmatched selection of top-of-the-line new cranes at all capacities.
