Specialized Rigging Services
Careful load handling for heavy, awkward, and hard-to-reach items — planned and executed with control and safety first.
Rigging is where a lift is won or lost. Elevate plans each pick around the load's weight, center of gravity, attachment points, and the space available to work — then selects the right slings, shackles, and hardware to move it safely.
From single sensitive components to large machinery relocations, we focus on control: no rushed picks, careful load assessment, and clear communication with everyone on site.
- Specialized rigging for difficult loads
- Machinery moving & equipment relocation
- Equipment installation & removal
- Tank lifting & placement
- Sensitive / high-value component handling
- Rigging support for contractors
- Confined or tight-access rigging
- Load positioning & set-down
- Multi-point & spreader-bar picks
- A load is too heavy or awkward to move by hand or forklift
- Equipment must be threaded through tight or overhead-restricted space
- A machine needs to be relocated within a plant or facility
- Attachment points or balance points are unclear
- A sensitive item requires controlled, low-shock handling
- You need crane and rigging coordinated as one plan
Rigging hardware is matched to the load and the pick — not the other way around. Share weight, dimensions, and lift points where known, and note any manufacturer-provided lifting information.
Where load data is uncertain, we plan conservatively and confirm on site before the pick.
- 1
Request
Call or send the form with your load, site, and timing. We review your request before confirming arrangements.
- 2
Project Review
We review weight, dimensions, height, and access to confirm the right approach.
- 3
Scheduling
We coordinate a date and window that fits your site and other trades.
- 4
Site Evaluation
We assess ground conditions, set-up area, overhead hazards, and clearances.
- 5
Lift Planning
We plan rigging, positioning, and sequence with safety first.
- 6
Execution & Closeout
We complete the lift, confirm the result, and leave the site clear.
Do you supply the rigging hardware?
Yes. We plan and provide the slings, shackles, and hardware appropriate for the load and pick. If you have engineered lift points or specific requirements, tell us on the intake form.
Can you move machinery inside a building?
Often, yes — depending on access, floor capacity, and clearances. Share the route, doorway and ceiling heights, and floor conditions so we can plan it.
What if I do not know the exact weight?
Give us your best estimate and any manufacturer-provided information. We plan conservatively and confirm before lifting rather than guessing at the pick.
Do you provide an operator too?
Yes. Elevate provides operated crane service and can coordinate the rigging and the lift as one plan.
