What are rigging services?

Rigging services involve lifting, positioning, loading, unloading, relocating, or installing heavy machinery and equipment using specialized lifting systems, rigging equipment, cranes, and trained personnel. In freight transportation, rigging may be needed when large or heavy equipment cannot be loaded, positioned, or unloaded using standard methods.

For transportation projects that require crane or rigging support, Buchanan can coordinate those requirements as part of heavy haul transportation planning when applicable. Shippers with unusually configured or over-dimensional freight can also review Buchanan's specialized freight transportation services.
