TNT Crane & Rigging Acquires Turner Bros. Crane Operations
July 12, 2012—TNT Crane & Rigging has acquired the crane operations of Turner Bros., a company with 60 cranes and branches in Houston, Longview, Beaumont, Abilene and Corpus Christi, Texas. TNT now has more than 230 cranes servicing the Gulf Coast from 11 branches in Texas, Louisiana, and Oklahoma, with full-service capabilities ranging from complete rigging capabilities, crawlers, boom trucks and cranes up to 1350 tons.
TNT, a crane rental specialist based in Houston, has acquired four companies since 2008. It sold a majority interest in the company to Odyssey Investment Partners in late 2011. The acquisition of Turner Bros. is its largest to date. Its most recent acquisition was two Louisiana Crane branches in San Antonio and Houston in early 2011.
