This is not a crane you call for tomorrow. The Liebherr LTM 1250-5.1 is the highest capacity mobile crane in the Western Region — deployed exclusively for lifts that no other single machine in our fleet can execute. Full distillation columns, industrial heat exchangers exceeding 30 tonnes, tandem bridge girder placements, and massive modular structures that push beyond the rated charts of every crane below it. Every 250-ton deployment begins with an engineering consultation, not a booking call. Our senior lift engineer reviews your load data, site geometry, and ground conditions before confirming that this crane — and not a tandem configuration of two smaller units — is the correct solution for your project. There is no same-day dispatch at this capacity. There is a pre-engineered plan, a fully documented execution package, and a lift that proceeds exactly as calculated.

Single crane or tandem lift — which configuration fits your project?

Some loads exceed what even a 250-ton crane can handle alone at the required radius. In those cases, two cranes share the load in a synchronised tandem lift — the most complex and safety-critical operation in mobile crane work. Here is how our engineers decide:

Decision flow: if one 250-ton crane cannot lift the load at the required radius, a tandem lift is used; if two smaller cranes can do it at lower cost, that is recommended; otherwise the single LTM 1250-5.1; minimum 48-hour lead time
Decision flow: if one 250-ton crane cannot lift the load at the required radius, a tandem lift is used; if two smaller cranes can do it at lower cost, that is recommended; otherwise the single LTM 1250-5.1; minimum 48-hour lead time

Best Uses for a 250-Ton Mobile Crane

  • Full distillation column installation and extraction during refinery shutdowns
  • Industrial heat exchangers exceeding 30 tonnes at extended working radii
  • Tandem bridge girder placements requiring synchronised dual-crane coordination
  • Massive modular process structures that exceed 200-ton crane capacity at the project radius
  • Multi-day lifting campaigns where a single high-capacity unit replaces sequential smaller crane mobilisations

Critical: The LTM 1250-5.1 does not dispatch on the same day. Every deployment begins with an engineering review — load analysis, ground bearing study, mobilisation route planning, and full documentation preparation. Minimum lead time: 48 hours from consultation to crane arrival on site.

Is the 250-ton crane the right choice for your project?

Call +971 50 334 3492 to speak with a senior lift engineer. If a tandem configuration using two smaller cranes delivers the same result at lower cost, we will tell you — we recommend the safest and most cost-effective solution, not the most expensive machine.

250 Tonne Crane Hire: FAQs

Planning facts for the highest-capacity crane in our fleet, the Liebherr LTM 1250-5.1.

AED 10,000 to AED 15,000 per 8-hour shift, including a complete lifting team, a certified lift supervisor and a full engineering review.

There is no same-day dispatch at this capacity. Every 250t crane hire starts with an engineering consultation, where our senior lift engineer reviews your load data, site geometry and ground conditions before the crane is confirmed.

75 m on the 72 m main boom and up to 101 m with the hydraulic luffing jib, with a working radius from 3 m to 66 m and 50 t of configurable counterweight.

It depends on the load and the site. During the engineering review our engineers compare a single 250-ton lift with a tandem configuration and recommend the safer, more cost-effective option.
