Rooftop Lifts
HVAC Crane Rental. On Schedule, Safety First.
Patriot Lifting walks the site before the crane mobilizes, confirms the swing radius over the occupied building, verifies ground bearing for the outriggers, and clears the path with the mechanical contractor on site.
Boom trucks (24 and 45 tons) for standard rooftop equipment.
Mobile and all-terrain cranes for larger units and longer reaches.
Carry deck for indoor and tight-access mechanical room work.


Mechanical Contractors Across Metro Atlanta Work With Us
We work with mechanical contractors on rooftop unit replacements, ground-mount installs, condenser swaps, and chiller sets. The picks repeat. The job sites change. The planning is the same.
Five service lines run in-house from the Jenkinsburg yard: operated crane rental, rigging, heavy hauling, specialty lifts, and secured storage. One dispatch line for all five, so the schedule and the equipment stay aligned across the job.
Standard dispatch covers metro Atlanta, the Henry / Spalding / Newton / Rockdale county belt around our Jenkinsburg yard, down I-75 to Macon, and east into the Athens market. Multi-state hauls extend coverage into Alabama, Tennessee, South Carolina, and North Carolina when the project calls for it.
Cranes from 15 to 275 tons across all-terrain, mobile, rough-terrain, boom truck, and carry deck categories. Every crane operated by our crew.
How an HVAC Crane Lift Works
Every HVAC pick starts with the site walk. From there the lift sequences with the mechanical contractor's schedule and the building's access window.
Site Walk
We confirm crane positioning, ground bearing, overhead clearances, and the swing path over the occupied building.
Pick Plan
Load weights confirmed against the manufacturer's spec, rigging selected, and the lift sequence agreed with the mechanical contractor.
Mobilization
The crane sized to the lift travels road-legal from Jenkinsburg. Outrigger pads sized to the ground conditions on site.
The Set
The crew runs a pre-lift brief, makes the pick, and stays on site until the unit is set and the mechanical team signs off.
Schedule an HVAC Pick
Send the unit weight, building address, and target date. We will quote the crane and lock in the schedule.

Frequently Asked Questions From HVAC Contractors
Common questions on Patriot Lifting crane work. Get in touch if you do not see your answer here.
Depends on unit weight, building height, and setback. Most standard rooftop unit swaps run with a 24-ton or 45-ton boom truck. Larger commercial units, mid-rise buildings, or longer reaches push to mobile or all-terrain cranes from 60 to 110 tons.
We walk the site before mobilization. If the only crane setup spot is on a public street or alley, we confirm permits and traffic control. If outriggers need to land on something other than asphalt, we bring mats and cribbing.
Most of our HVAC work happens with occupied buildings. We plan the swing path, time the pick to the schedule the property manager allows, and stay outside the occupied footprint with the boom.
Yes. We bring slings, spreaders, and below-the-hook gear matched to the unit weight and any factory lift points specified by the manufacturer.
Four Services Out Of One Yard
Most jobs come down to four service lines. We handle each in-house and dispatch from one location, which keeps the schedule, the crew, and the equipment aligned across the lift.

Operated Crane Rentals
for Every Lift
The operator runs the crane and our crew sets the picks. Capacity, reach, and ground requirements drive the recommendation across all-terrain, mobile, rough-terrain, boom truck, and carry deck options.

Rigging Plans Built
Around the Load
Slings, spreaders, and below-the-hook gear matched to the load. For multi-point picks and blind lifts, we plan the rigging in coordination with the engineer of record so the setup arrives ready to run.

Secured Storage Services
For Projects, Equipment, and Materials
Patriot's Jenkinsburg yard offers secured storage for upcoming projects, customer equipment, and job-related materials. Containers, oversized loads, project staging, and equipment storage between jobs. Stored under cover or fenced based on what the load demands.

Heavy Haul for Loads
With a Clear Plan
Trailer matched to the load, route planned, permits handled. From oversized industrial equipment to overweight commercial freight, we move what does not fit on a standard truck across Georgia.

Specialty Lifts Services
Swim spas placed over a roofline. Modular sections set in a backyard. Cell tower top sections. Container drops to grade. Specialty work is a regular service line at Patriot, not an exception.
