We’re a Falls Church-based crane rental company built on three things: certified operators, safety-first execution, and the long-term relationships that turn one-time customers into go-to partners.
Crane Rental Services LLC is a locally owned and operated crane rental company headquartered in Falls Church, Virginia. We dispatch boom-truck cranes — and the certified operators who run them — across Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland.
Most contractors searching for “crane service near me” end up with companies based an hour out, paying for their commute every step of the way. We started this company to solve that problem: deliver a modern fleet, certified operators, and transparent portal-to-portal pricing — from a central Falls Church location that puts us closer to the work.
Our experienced crane operators don’t just show up and lift. They meet with you to assess your needs, help you estimate your budget and timeline, and give honest advice on how to approach the project. We understand that as subcontractors, our work reflects on your company. That’s why we hold every operator and employee to the highest standards of professionalism and quality.
We also know that to keep your crew safe, you need a company and an operator you can trust to follow OSHA regulations and err on the side of caution every time. The safety of your employees and our operators is our number one priority — full stop.
Beyond safety, we focus on building relationships with our clients. We promise to go above and beyond to help you achieve your goal. At the end of the day, we want to be your trusted, go-to crane provider. Once you work with us, you won’t be searching “crane service near me” again.
Crane rental is a commodity for a lot of providers. To us, it’s a craft. Here’s what that looks like in practice:
We dispatch from the heart of the DC metro — not from rural Virginia or Maryland. That means shorter travel times, lower portal-to-portal billing, and more crane on your job site.
Every operator on our team is certified by the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO). Our DC jobs are handled by Class 7c Operating Engineers. Our tree-care lifts are run by operators carrying the CTSP — the only safety certification in the tree care industry.
Our fleet of boom-truck cranes is meticulously maintained, equipped with radio communication helmets, and ready for the wide range of lifts the DC metro throws at us — from HVAC drops to tree removals.
No hidden fees. No vague estimates. We quote portal-to-portal, with a 3-hour minimum, and we disclose any permits, special rigging, or logistics costs up front.
OSHA compliance isn’t a checkbox for us — it’s the baseline. When we’re unsure, we slow down, ask questions, and err on the side of caution. Your team going home safe is the only acceptable outcome.
As subcontractors, we know our work reflects on the GC, the property owner, or the homeowner who hired us. We show up on time, in proper PPE, with the right equipment, and we conduct ourselves the way we’d want our own contractors to behave.
We’re not chasing one-off jobs. We’re building a roster of contractors, builders, tree services, and property managers who pick up the phone and call us first. That only happens if we earn it on every lift.
Every operator on our team carries — at minimum — the NCCCO certification required by OSHA. Operators handling DC jobs hold the Class 7c Operating Engineer credential. Operators on tree-care lifts carry the CTSP. We don’t cut corners on the people behind the controls.
We work with a wide mix of contractors and trades across the DC metro. If your job needs a certified operator and a modern boom truck, we’re built for you.
Rooftop unit installs, condenser drops, chiller placements, and mechanical equipment removal.
Crane-assisted tree removals and pruning in tight residential lots — handled by CTSP-certified operators.
Channel letters, monument signs, billboards, and municipal signage placed at height.
Structural steel, precast, material placement, and specialty construction lifts.
Pole setting, antenna placement, and infrastructure work.
Grand pianos, safes, hot tubs, and oversized furniture moved through windows and over rooflines.
Our primary service area covers Northern Virginia, Washington DC, and parts of Maryland — including Alexandria, Arlington, Bethesda, Chevy Chase, Fairfax, Falls Church, Great Falls, Herndon, McLean, Potomac, Tysons, Vienna, and all four quadrants of Washington DC.
