Who We Are

Your Heavy-Lift Partner Serving All Of Texas

Founded in 1979, Family-Owned and Operated

Alamo Crane has earned its reputation through service, safety, and long-term partnerships across Central Texas. Founded in 1979 as a small local operation, we have grown into a full-scale heavy-lift provider supporting San Antonio, Austin, and project sites across the entire state of Texas. We remain family-owned, rooted in the community, and committed to doing the job right the first time.

Every lift is backed by experienced professionals who understand the realities of working on active job sites, tight streets, and complex facilities. Our certified crane operators and rigging crews are trained to simplify your project, not add headaches. From rooftop HVAC picks and tilt-wall panels to heavy industrial equipment moves, we bring the right crane, the right plan, and the right team to keep your schedule on track and your site safe.

Contractors, facility managers, and industrial clients trust Alamo Crane because we show up prepared, handle the details, and stand behind our work on every job.

Our People and Safety Culture

At Alamo Crane, our strongest asset is the team behind the controls and on the ground. Every lift is planned and executed by experienced professionals who live and work in the communities we serve throughout San Antonio, Austin, and across Texas. They understand local job sites, local challenges, and local expectations, and they take personal pride in delivering safe, efficient results on every project.

Our safety culture goes beyond checklists. We invest in ongoing training, certified crane operators, and proven rigging practices so you can trust that every pick is executed with discipline and control. Pre-lift planning, job hazard analysis, and clear communication are standard on our projects, not optional extras.

Because we operate in live environments – active streets, operating facilities, occupied campuses, and tight downtown corridors – we design each lift to protect your crews, your property, and the public. That commitment has helped us earn repeat business from contractors and facility managers who cannot afford downtime, delays, or accidents.
