Crane Relocations & Removals – Safe, Compliant, and Efficient
Moving or removing an overhead crane isn’t just about unbolting it and lifting it away. It’s a complex process involving engineering checks, compliance requirements, and precise planning to keep your site safe and your equipment in top condition.
At RKA Industrial Solutions, we manage the entire process — from planning and dismantling to relocation, recommissioning, or safe disposal — ensuring your crane move is done right, on time, and with minimal downtime.
Our Crane Relocation & Removal Services
- Site Assessment & Planning
We start with a detailed site visit to understand your requirements, lifting infrastructure, access constraints, and safety considerations. - Engineering Review & Compliance Checks
Our engineers perform structural and mechanical assessments, ensuring the crane can be safely dismantled, transported, and reinstalled — and that it will remain compliant at its new location. - Dismantling & Decommissioning
We dismantle cranes and fixed structures using safe, controlled processes to protect the equipment and surrounding infrastructure. - Transport & Logistics
We coordinate all transport requirements, including loading, securing, and moving your crane components to the new location. - Reinstallation & Commissioning
For relocations, we reinstall your crane to manufacturer specifications and Australian Standards , followed by full commissioning and functional testing. - Disposal & Recycling
If a crane is being permanently removed, we ensure components are disposed of or recycled responsibly, with documentation provided for compliance records.
