Smith Brothers Crane Rental has been the gold standard for heavy lift solutions in Southern California for over four decades. Founded by Dennis and Jerry in the early 1970s, the company began with one-man cranes that were already pioneering in travel-controlled operations. Today, their fleet spans 5-ton to 165-ton hydraulic trucks and the industry-leading 165-ton Demag all-terrain crane, giving clients unrivaled flexibility across every project type. From steel erection on the Harbor Freeway interchange to precision lifts for the Walt Disney Concert Hall, Smith Brothers delivers speed, safety and skill, ensuring your project stays on schedule and within budget.
With a roster of OECP-certified operators, TWIC-carded riggers and a veteran-owned ethos, safety and professionalism are ingrained in every lift. The crew’s random drug testing and rigorous training programs mean that whether you’re moving a 90-ton solar panel, a custom spreader bar or a giant movie set piece, the load is handled with precision and confidence. Their 24-hour on-site service guarantees that no lift is left unattended, while their fleet’s hydraulic all-terrain capability allows access to even the most challenging sites, from tight urban streets to expansive construction sites.
Clients choose Smith Brothers not just for equipment, but for the partnership that turns complex challenges into opportunities. Their film-industry expertise—having supported blockbuster productions such as Batman & Robin, Pirates of the Caribbean, and Mission: Impossible—translates into creative solutions for TV studios, set builders and commercial projects alike. By blending decades of experience, cutting-edge technology and a relentless commitment to customer success, Smith Brothers Crane Rental elevates every lift into an engineering success story.
