Hiring a crane in St. Petersburg

This page lists 7 crane companies based in or serving St. Petersburg, plus 12 more based nearby, covering Pinellas County and towns like Clearwater, Largo, Pinellas Park. 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 Pinellas County.

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

St. Petersburg crane FAQs

How much does crane rental cost in St. Petersburg?

Crane companies in the St. Petersburg 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 St. Petersburg?

If the crane sets up on a public street, sidewalk or right-of-way, expect to need a permit from the City of St. Petersburg or Pinellas 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.
