Project Cargo, The Port of Liverpool
Baldwins Projects can assist with Project Cargo and provide Clients with an all encompassing service to discharge and transport their Cargo from UK Ports direct to Job Site. On this occasion, we supplied a Liebherr LTM1500 Mobile Crane to discharge an ABB/Hitachi Grids Transformer at the Port of Liverpool. While we had a 500te Crane at the Port, we also had another 500te Crane at the Job Site in Capenhurst which lifted and final positioned the Transformer on the plinth the same day. Having a large Heavy Crane fleet and supporting Project Management/Engineering enables our Teams to take on the most challenging Projects, and Deliver!
Supporting Clients meet their Project Programmes.
Baldwins Crane Hire have a long history in supporting UK Infrastructure Projects. Having a wide range of Mobile Cranes which are strategically positioned throughout the Country, and a Project Management and Engineering Team that become part of the overall project and delivery team, means that Projects like the Regent Street Bridge Replacement one can be completed successfully, on-time and without incident.
For this Project, Baldwins 1000te capcity Terex Demag AC1000 was used in tandem with our Grove GMK5250 for night time operations in Leeds City Centre.

1000te Crane in a Park, Kendal
Baldwins Crane Hire were contracted at an early stage in order to check feasibility and assist with the design assurance to get a 1000te Mobile Crane into a Park in Kendal. The biggest crane that had been in the Town previously was a 160te and challenges were noted with access from the Motorway. Baldwins Projects working with Network Rail, the Council and the Police successfully mobilised the Crane to the Town Centre Park. From there, the Plans devised by Baldwins Engineering Team were instigated and the Town got itself a new Pedestrian Bridge.
Heavy Lifting and Multi Modal Movements on the River Thames
Baldwins Liebherr LG1750 lifting Co2 Tanks for re-purposing. The facility in Purfleet housed the Tanks which were lifted using the Heavy Liebherr Crane from Baldwins Crane. Lifting from the site to a waiting Barge, the Project was time critical as it relied on suitable tide times. Using the River Thames, the Tanks were barged to the Port of Tilbury where the discharge and final positioning took place.
