When you've got a load that needs lifting and placing - not just towing - a standard truck won't cut it. That's where our Hiab crane truck comes in. WW Towing is one of the few towing and transport companies in North Auckland that operates its own Hiab truck, giving our clients a capability that most competitors simply can't offer.
Our Hiab is available for hire across Auckland's North Shore, Albany, Silverdale, the Hibiscus Coast, and the full Rodney District. Whether you need to lift materials onto a roof, load heavy equipment onto a trailer, remove a vehicle from a difficult position, or deliver and place large items at a job site - our Hiab gives you the flexibility to get the job done right.
What Is a Hiab Truck?
A Hiab (sometimes called a knuckleboom crane or loader crane) is a truck-mounted hydraulic crane that can lift, extend, and place loads with precision. Unlike a standard flat deck truck, a Hiab can lift loads off the ground and swing them to exactly where they need to go - over a fence, onto a balcony, across a site, or into a tight space that a forklift can't reach. They're invaluable on construction sites, in industrial settings, and for any job where access is limited.
