Family-owned, union boom truck crane service. We set rooftop units, trusses, materials and boats across Rhode Island, southeastern Massachusetts and eastern Connecticut.
A 30-ton boom truck that fits where big cranes can't: tight lots, driveways, docks and job sites. Operated by the owner on every lift.

Setting RTUs, condensers and mini-split equipment on roofs and pads for mechanical contractors.
Trusses & framing

Our story
Two brothers. One boom truck.
Kurt Minty has spent nine years in the operator's seat as a member of IUOE Local 57, running cranes on job sites across New England. Minty Crane Co. is his own shop, built with his brother and run out of the family's shop in South County.
When you call, you talk to the guy who'll be running your lift. That's the whole idea.
