Crane Rental & Lifting Services in Milton, VT
Serving Milton, VT
Milton is one of the fastest-growing towns in Chittenden County, and the construction activity here reflects it. New residential subdivisions are going up along Route 7 and the roads branching east toward the foothills. Commercial development near the I-89 Exit 17 corridor keeps picking up. And Catamount Industrial Park has seen steady activity from contractors who need reliable lifting support for structural and equipment work.
We’re based in Swanton — about 20 miles north on Route 7 — and we make regular runs to Milton job sites for crane rental and lifting services on both the residential and commercial side. If you’ve got a lift coming up in Milton, call us at (802) 370-5361) before you book anyone else.

Crane Rental in Milton, VT
Milton sits at an interesting crossroads. It’s close enough to Burlington that contractors here sometimes look south for crane services, but the Burlington-based companies carry Burlington-level mobilization costs. We come from the north — same Route 7, shorter gap than you might think — and we bring the kind of familiarity with Vermont job site conditions that translates directly into cleaner lift days.
Most of our Milton work falls into two buckets. The first is residential — new homes, garages, additions, and modular placements on the subdivisions pushing out toward the mountains. The second is commercial and light industrial — lifts at Catamount Industrial Park, HVAC placements on commercial rooftops, steel and beam work on retail and municipal projects near the Route 7 and I-89 interchange.
We offer crane rental with operator on every job we take in Milton. Our operators come to the site having already talked through load weight, pick radius, rigging plan, and access. Milton job sites vary a lot — a tight residential lot off Bombardier Road looks nothing like an open industrial pad at Catamount — and we adjust our setup accordingly. The right equipment for the site is the only equipment we’ll bring.
Boom Truck Rental in Milton, VT
Boom trucks do a lot of the heavy lifting — literally — on Milton’s newer residential developments. Subdivisions with tighter lot spacing, narrower staging areas, and overhead utility lines running through the neighborhood are exactly where a boom truck earns its keep. Faster setup, more maneuverability, lower cost than a full mobile crane for the right job.
We use boom trucks in Milton for roof truss picks on smaller residential builds, material lifts, HVAC placements on commercial rooftops, and signage installs. If you’re a GC bidding a Milton job and you need to know whether a boom truck or a crane is the right call, we’ll give you a straight answer over the phone. We’d rather you have the right equipment than the wrong one.
Commercial Crane Services & Modular Home Setting in Milton, VT
Milton’s commercial corridor along Route 7 and the industrial activity at Catamount Industrial Park generate the kind of lifting work that requires more than a residential boom truck. Steel beam installs, rooftop HVAC units on larger buildings, precast panels, and equipment lifts — these are jobs where load capacity and reach matter, and where getting the equipment selection wrong costs real money.
We’ve handled commercial crane services in Milton for contractors working on everything from small retail buildouts to light industrial facilities. We carry the right insurance, our operators are certified, and we can provide documentation before work starts — which matters when your commercial client requires proof of subcontractor coverage.
Modular home setting is another Milton-area service we get called for regularly. The combination of growing residential demand and the practical appeal of modular construction in Vermont has made this a more common request over the last few years. Setting a modular home requires precise picks, careful sequencing, and an operator who’s done it before. Ours have.
About Milton, VT
Milton is a town in Chittenden County sitting just south of Franklin County along the Route 7 corridor, bordered by Lake Champlain to the west and rising terrain toward the Green Mountains to the east. It’s one of the fastest-growing communities in Vermont, fueled by its proximity to Burlington and its relatively affordable land. The Lamoille River runs through the eastern part of town, and the downtown village sits near the river on Milton Falls Road. Catamount Industrial Park, off Route 7 near the town center, anchors the light industrial and commercial base. The construction market here is active — new housing developments, commercial expansion along the I-89 corridor, and infrastructure investment that keeps contractors busy from April through November. We’ve been making the drive down from Swanton for Milton jobs long enough that it feels like familiar ground.
