Hiring a crane in Ocala

This page lists 6 crane companies based in or serving Ocala, plus 2 more based nearby, covering Marion County and towns like Belleview, Dunnellon, Silver Springs. Common local jobs include setting roof trusses on new homes, lifting AC units onto commercial roofs, placing pools and spas in backyards with no side access, and clearing trees after storms.

Before you call, know roughly how heavy the load is, how far it has to travel from where a truck can park, and what's in the way overhead. Those three things decide the crane size and most of the price. If the crane has to set up on the street, ask the company about a right-of-way permit from the city or Marion County.

Hurricane season runs June 1 to November 30. After a storm, crane companies across North Central Florida book up quickly, so planned lifts are easier to schedule outside the busiest weeks.

Ocala crane FAQs

How much does crane rental cost in Ocala?

Crane companies in the Ocala area usually charge by the hour with a minimum, and the total depends on crane size, travel and how long the lift takes. Send a request with the weight and distance and you'll get a price for your exact job.

Do I need a permit for a crane in Ocala?

If the crane sets up on a public street, sidewalk or right-of-way, expect to need a permit from the City of Ocala or Marion County, depending on where the property is. Lifts that stay on private property usually don't. Most crane companies know the local process and can pull it for you.

Can a crane lift a pool or spa over my house?

Usually, yes. What decides it is the weight of the shell or spa and how far it has to travel from where the crane sets up. Give both in your request, plus any power lines near the house.
