“We used Load 28 for our Cranage on a 7 storey apartment building, using a MCH125 Tower Crane & Mobile Cranes.

The operating crew were excellent and worked in with us as a team which made my life easier.

I would recommend Load 28 and this type of Tower Crane for sites where room is tight & access also restricted.”

Site Manager, Savills Australia

‘Barney the Starlight Crane’ has joined the Load 28 fleet and over the next six months will work hard on building sites across Adelaide to help grant five Starlight Wishes for kids experiencing hospitalisation and serious illness. A portion of the machine’s hourly rate will be donated to Starlight to give sick kids something to look forward to and to create new memories for them to treasure forever.

Load 28 are also encouraging its valued clients and the general public to donate to this worthy cause.
