Australia’s Top Choice in Crane Services

Our Crane Services

Advantages of Dry Hire

If you have a trained crane operator on staff and all the accessories you need, our dry hire crane service is best for your project. With our broad range of crane selections, you and your crane operator can choose precisely the right crane to complete your project.

Dry hire ensures you don’t pay the extra cost of an operator you don’t need. It means you have full control over the crane’s maintenance costs and when and where it’s used – and you don’t have to rely on a crane operator you don’t know.

Used Crane Sales and Crane Consignment Services

Whether you’re in the market for a quality used crane or want to unload one of your own, we can help. We keep a broad range of pre-owned cranes, all vetted by our expert staff. When you buy a used crane from us, you can rest assured that your crane will be safe and in perfect working order.

If you’re a SOHKI client and looking to sell one or some of the cranes in your fleet, we’re happy to help you sell it. With our international reputation for excellence and our network of industry contacts, you’ll be sure to get the best price for your crane.

Crane Import and Export Services

Having a parent company in Japan has its advantages. With our broad range of experience in crane import and export services, we can handle all the paperwork, hassle-free.

If you’ve found just the crane you need in our Japan-based collection, let us arrange to bring it to you. We make the process on both sides of the ocean seamless and easy.

If you’re an Australian crane manufacturer looking to expand overseas, make a massive sale, or simply transport your cranes for a project outside of Australia, we handle that, too.

Whether you’re looking to bring them in or ship them out, SOHKI takes care of your cranes at port, at sea, and on the way to your jobsite.

Crane Services Australian Businesses Can Depend on

Hire to Purchase

Looking to buy a crane for your fleet, but not sure which crane is right for you? Don’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars sitting in your bank account? SOHKI’s Hire To Purchase option might be for you.

Here’s how it works: you pick out a crane, we set up a payment plan, and you get that crane right now. No saving up. No waiting years.

The crane you want, at a fraction of the price.
Our Hire To Purchase option means while you’re hiring a crane, you’re paying off the price to buy it. Once your hire contract ends, you can choose to leave it at that – just a hire – or to buy the crane for what it costs minus the amount you’ve paid to hire it already.
