50 to 120-ton mobile cranes with experienced operators for telecom, solar, industrial, construction, tree service, and residential projects. Serving a 3-hour radius from the St. Louis metro — Missouri, Southern Illinois, and surrounding states.
Three mobile cranes ready for your next project, operated by experienced and certified professionals.
Compact footprint for tight job sites. Ideal for antenna swaps, equipment placement, pool sets, lighter construction lifts, and residential work. Goes where bigger iron can't.
Our workhorse for tree service support and mid-range lifts. The go-to crane for tree removal, pool sets, shelter and cabinet placements, and general construction. The reach and capacity to handle the bulk of everyday crane work.
All-terrain heavy-lift capability for major projects. Tower section erection, solar inverter and transformer setting, industrial equipment placement, steel erection support, and large-scale construction lifts. This is the crane that handles the big stuff.
VMC mobilizes on our own tractor trailers — both day cabs for regional work and sleeper trucks for longer hauls. We also carry an 80-foot expandable pole trailer with rear steer for transporting long steel, poles, and tower sections. No third-party trucking, no schedule gaps waiting on a hauler.
Experienced operators and the right crane for every job.
VMC provides crane-assisted tree removal services for tree service companies across the greater St. Louis area, mid-Missouri, Southern Illinois, and surrounding regions. Our 60-ton boom truck is purpose-deployed for tree work, and our operators know how to work safely and efficiently alongside climbing crews. Whether it's a hazardous takedown in a tight residential yard or clearing storm damage, we bring the lift capacity your crew needs to get trees down safely and quickly.
We also handle emergency storm response tree work with crane support available on short notice.
Both our 50-ton and 60-ton cranes handle fiberglass and concrete pool sets regularly for pool contractors and homeowners throughout Missouri and Illinois. Tight backyards, decks, fences, limited access — we make it work. Our operators have set pools in some of the most challenging residential sites in the region and we work directly with pool contractors to plan access routes and lift logistics ahead of delivery day.
VMC provides crane services for recycling facilities, concrete batch plants, and manufacturing operations. We do a significant volume of recurring industrial plant work — heavy equipment setting, equipment swaps, plant maintenance lifts, and rigging. Our 120-ton Terex Demag handles the heavy iron while the 50 and 60-ton cranes cover lighter plant lifts and tight-access work inside operating facilities.
If your plant needs a piece of equipment set, replaced, or moved, we have the cranes and the experience to do it safely and on schedule.
Our 120-ton all-terrain crane is built for the heavy, repetitive lifts utility-scale solar fields require. We provide crane and operator for inverter offloading and setting, transformer sets, switchgear placement, and substation equipment. VMC is equipped for multi-week setting campaigns with consistent daily production. We mobilize on our own trucks directly from our Villa Ridge yard.

Tower work is where VMC started and it remains our core. Antenna installations, tower section erection, shelter sets, generator placements, rooftop equipment, and emergency deployments. We've been lifting on towers since day one and our operators understand the precision and rigging these structures demand.

Steel erection support, rooftop HVAC units, generators, precast panels, bridge components, trusses, and any lift your job site needs. Available for daily, weekly, or project-duration crane rental with operator. VMC cranes are available for general contractors, steel erectors, mechanical contractors, and any project requiring reliable lift capacity in the Missouri and Southern Illinois region.
Vertical Mobility provides crane services within a 3-hour radius of the greater St. Louis metro area, covering Missouri, Southern Illinois, and portions of Kansas, Iowa, Arkansas, Kentucky, Indiana, and Tennessee. Our fleet mobilizes on VMC-owned tractor trailers with both day cab and sleeper capability for longer-distance projects.
Primary service areas include: St. Louis metro, Kansas City, Columbia, Springfield MO, Jefferson City, Cape Girardeau, Belleville/Carbondale IL, and surrounding communities.
