Not just a tow truck
The crane is already on the truck
Most jobs that need lifting need two phone calls. One mob to crane it, another to cart it away. Two site windows, two minimums, and a morning gone while you wait for the second truck.
Flex turns up with the crane already mounted behind the cab. We lift it, we load it, we take it where it needs to go. One booking, one operator, one invoice.
-
We lift what we carry.
Over a fence, behind a build, down the side of a house. Tight access is normal work, not a special request.
-
One operator, one ticket.
The bloke lifting it is the bloke driving it. No second crew to wait on.
-
Straight to a real person.
You ring the number, we pick up. No queue, no dispatch runaround.
-
Crane weight capacity.
3.9 tonne.
-
Crane reach.
Up to 11 metres.

Tilt tray, with a knuckle crane behind the cab
One truck, two jobs. The tray tilts and winches so machines load without a ramp, and the crane swings the load off the back or over whatever is in the way.

Who we work with
Most of our work is repeat work for people who need something heavy shifted this week, and again next week.
-
Construction companies
Material and plant onto a live site, inside a booked window.
-
Builders
Trusses, frames and shed kits craned over the fence.
-
Trades companies
A bobcat, a tank, a pallet of pavers. No job too small to quote.
-
Machinery hire companies
Off hire pickups and cross hire drops, often same day.
Why they call us?
-
We lift what we carry.
Crane and tray on the one truck, so awkward placement is ordinary work.
-
We turn up in the window.
You have a slot on site. We work to it, and we tell you early if anything shifts.
-
You talk to the operator.
Not a call centre. The person you brief is the person who does the job.
How it works
-
Tell us what you are moving.
Fill the form or ring the yard. Pick up, drop off, rough weight.
-
We come back with a straight price.
No vague ranges, no surprises on the invoice.
-
We turn up and move it.
In the window you booked.

Questions we get asked
Do you only tow cars?
No. Cars and utes are part of it, but most of what we shift is plant, machinery, containers, site sheds and building materials. If it is heavy and awkward, that is our normal day.
Can you lift it as well as cart it?
Yes. The crane is mounted on the truck, so we can lift the load onto the tray, place it where it needs to go on site, or swing it over a fence. You do not need to book a separate crane. Our crane has a 3.9t weight capacity with an 11m reach.
How big can you go?
Up to a 10 tonne excavator on the tray, and the crane handles the awkward placement work above that. If it is bigger than us we will tell you straight rather than waste your morning.
Are you really available 24/7?
Yes. The phone is answered around the clock, and after-hours callouts run on the same truck and the same operator. Ring the number and you will get a person, not a message bank.
Do you invoice on account?
Yes, for regular trade clients. Set the account up once and the jobs go on invoice from then on. Ring the yard and we will sort it out.
How fast can you get to us?
Depends where you are and what else is on, but ring the yard and you will get a real answer on the spot, not a callback.
Need it moved?
Give us the job. We will give you a straight price.
