Crane Service Needed for Appliance Delivery and Removal

Submitted by GK_PVD t3_yhieuj in providence

Hey y’all, I need a new stove delivered and my current one taken away. My stairs are too narrow so it will need to happen via crane/lift to my third floor balcony and into my kitchen door. Do you know any companies or people who provide this service? Thanks!

My work often requires what in the industry is called “rigging.”

Yeah, this is going to be the most expensive part of OP’s new stove, especially if it’s being picked through a window and will occlude traffic, which requires a police detail. A “cheap” “pick” (generally what the action of lifting the equipment is called) can be $2,500, at least in the construction industry, but truth be told, that would be to place a condenser unit on a rooftop with adequate access. And even then, if I got that back as a quote, I’d be surprised at the economy of it.

I’m doing a project right now that requires placing ~130k lbs of equipment on a roof in Boston, ~60’ up in the air. There’s plenty of space, no police detail required, and it’s an easy “pick.”

$70k.

Good luck OP lol

Seems like any decent contractor would be able to pull this off using a lul or a truck with a drywall lift. I'd look for remodeling contractors as they have to get creative working on old buildings
