Hurricane & Storm Debris Removal Support
Crane and rigging support to lift and clear heavy storm debris — trees, structures, and displaced material blocking recovery.
Urgent situation? We are on call 24/7.
After a hurricane or severe storm, the heaviest debris is often what blocks recovery — large tree trunks, collapsed structures, and displaced equipment that hand crews and small machines cannot move.
Elevate provides crane and rigging support to lift and stage heavy debris so it can be cleared, helping property owners, contractors, and municipalities reopen access and begin cleanup.
- Lifting large tree trunks and root balls
- Removing collapsed structural debris
- Clearing debris off vehicles and equipment
- Lifting debris from roofs and structures
- Staging heavy material for haul-off
- Opening blocked roads and driveways
Storm debris work often means soft or flooded ground, unstable piles, and hidden hazards. We assess set-up and rigging on arrival and keep people clear of the work zone during lifts.

We can work alongside restoration contractors, roofing and demolition crews, adjusters, and property owners, and can support documentation needs during recovery. We do not guarantee insurance coverage or approval — but we can coordinate with your team and provide photos and details of the work performed.

Do you haul the debris away too?
We provide the crane and rigging to lift and stage heavy debris. Hauling and disposal are typically handled by a cleanup contractor or the municipality — we coordinate with them.
How fast can you respond after a storm?
We are on call 24/7 and can mobilize along the Gulf and Atlantic coasts, but timing depends on safety conditions, access, weather, and equipment availability. Call and we will give you a straight answer.
Can you work with my insurance or restoration company?
Yes. We can coordinate with restoration contractors and adjusters and provide documentation of the work performed. We do not guarantee coverage or approval.
