When something goes wrong at 2 a.m. — a unit trips, a transformer fails, a barge breaks loose, a hurricane crosses the coast — somebody is going to need a crane fast. CDH runs a live dispatch desk around the clock, every day of the year, with pre-staged equipment and on-call operators across all five yards. We have been doing emergency response in the Gulf South for two decades; the muscle memory is built in.
After Hurricanes Laura, Delta, Ida, and Beryl we ran emergency lifts for refineries, utilities, and municipalities for weeks at a time. The drill is the same every time: triage the picks by criticality, dispatch the right cranes and operators, keep the customer informed, and stay until the work is done.
Truck-mounted boom crane for HVAC sets, sign installs, light steel, and rapid-response picks. Road legal, no permit on most picks.
4WD rough-terrain crane for off-road jobsites, refinery yards, and tight industrial pads where a truck crane will not fit.
Hydraulic truck crane for mid-weight commercial, light industrial, and downtown picks where 40T is short and 90T is overkill.
All-terrain crane that drives at highway speed and works off-road on the same day. Most-requested crane in our fleet.
Long-boom all-terrain class for heavy commercial, marine, and refinery picks needing reach plus capacity.
Heavy-lift class for transformer sets, vessel work, structural sets, and critical industrial picks.
Live dispatch around the clock for refinery upsets, storm response, marine emergencies, and urgent commercial picks.
Crane plus NCCCO-certified operator, fuel, insurance, and ongoing maintenance. Our standard rental model.
Engineered heavy lift execution for refinery, petrochem, LNG, marine, and major structural picks across the Gulf South.
Two-minute call to scope the pick. Same-day quote in most cases.
