How this Idaho Falls crane site came together
This site gathers posted crane rates and the street, power and highway rules for Idaho Falls and the farm towns around it. A lift you send here lands with one crane operator in eastern Idaho.
One operator, start to finish
A request reaches just one independent crane operator near the job and stays with them. Expect a call or text about the load and the ground, then a price. If you book, you book with them directly.
Sources for these pages
Rates are copied from crane companies in Montana and Utah that publish them, each with its minimum. Road, permit and building facts come from the City of Idaho Falls, the City of Ammon, Idaho Falls Power, the Idaho Transportation Department and Idaho Code, with links on each page.
Ready for crane day
Ask for the price in writing with travel included. Stage the trusses or the load near where the crane will park, flag sprinkler heads and septic lids, and note every power line. Builders who need an insurance certificate from the crane company should ask several days out.
