Boom Truck and Aerial Lift Rental for Contractors
When a boom truck or aerial lift goes down, the crew stops and the schedule slips. CRANETEC rents boom trucks and aerial lifts to utility and contractor fleets so work can continue while your own unit is repaired, or when a project needs more elevated equipment than you have on hand.
Request a quote for the unit you need, tell us your project timeline, and we will confirm what is available.

When Contractors Rent a Boom Truck or Aerial Lift
- A truck is down for a multi-day repair and a scheduled job cannot slip.
- A project needs more elevated equipment than your fleet has on hand.
- You want a backup unit so one breakdown does not stop the crew.
- You are testing a unit type before committing to a purchase.
If you are weighing a repair against a rental, see our guide on when to rent a bucket truck. For broader equipment options, see utility equipment rentals.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a boom truck and an aerial lift?
A boom truck is a truck-mounted boom, often with a bucket or platform, used for work where the vehicle is driven to the site. An aerial lift is a broader category that includes truck-mounted and self-propelled units. Tell us the work you need to do and we will recommend the right unit.
Can I rent a boom truck while mine is in the shop?
Yes. Renting a replacement is common when a repair will take several days and the crew still has scheduled work. Compare the repair timeline with your project schedule to decide.
Do you rent to contractors outside Texas?
Yes. CRANETEC serves contractor fleets across the United States. Call (409) 752-5400 or request a quote, and we will confirm availability for your location.
Do I need to be qualified to operate a boom truck or aerial lift?
Yes. Operators should be trained and qualified under the applicable standards and the manufacturer's requirements before using any aerial device. Renting does not change that responsibility.
