Franna crane hire rates in Western Australia

Looking for franna crane hire can be daunting, especially when trying to gauge different models, your project's needs, and the costs that come with it. In this blog, we'll be looking at the different factors that affect franna crane hire rates and help you make an informed decision for your project.



Franna hire rates can vary significantly based on several factors, including the tonnage of the mobile cranes, the job location, the duration of the hire, and whether you choose wet or dry hire. It's also important to keep in mind any additional costs, such as potential damage or penalty rates (for wet hire). Let's take a look at some of the other common costs included in a crane hire quote.

What are the common costs that will be included in a franna crane hire price?

Before deciding on the size of the franna crane required, you must first decide whether you require wet or dry hire options. Although dry hire will save you money compared to wet hire, there are fewer extras that dry hire doesn’t offer. Wet hiring will ensure a quality job as there are experienced crane operators in charge of the equipment and will save you costs if an inexperienced operator makes an error. Various crane attachments will also be included in the total price, as well as full coverage for insurance. Also, the tonnage of larger cranes will certainly influence the total cost as these machinery cost more to maintain.

Some other costs that can either be added to the total cost or an add-on include:

• The age of the franna crane
• The hiring hours
• Fuel costs
• Transportation to and from the project site

These costs make up the lost return on investment (ROI) when the franna tower crane is in transit between the company’s depot and the mining or construction sites. If, however, the rough terrain crane is too large to transport without mobilisation and escorts, then an extra cost for transportation will be required.
