Crane inspections are so important. They are a part of the law but more important than this, they will ensure your staff members are safe and can do their jobs properly. Never get behind with your crane inspections.

When you buy a new or used crane, buy from a company that will also offer you inspections. This way, they can schedule them in for you and you won’t have to find a different company and work out how reliable they are. Make sure you keep all your documentation after an inspection, as you have to keep it on record for a certain amount of time.

Cranes will usually have to be inspected every 6 months to a year. The regularity will all depend on the type of crane you have and the amount of usage it receives. Check the documentation and government regulations. However, these guidelines are a minimum and many crane owners have more regular inspections.
