Our comprehensive services in Australia
Used crane sales and crane consignment services
Whether you’re in the market for a quality used crane or want to unload one of your own, we can help. We keep a broad range of pre-owned cranes, all vetted by our expert staff.
If you’re a SOHKI LTD client and looking to sell one or some of the cranes in your fleet, we’re happy to help you sell it. With our international reputation for excellence and our network of industry contacts, we are able to export local cranes overseas so you’ll be sure to get the best price for your crane.
Import / Export Crane
Having a parent company in Japan has its advantages. With our broad range of experience in crane import and export services, we can handle all the paperwork, hassle-free.
If you’ve found just the crane you need in our Japan-based collection, let us arrange to bring it to you. We make the process on both sides of the ocean seamless and easy.
If you’re an Australian crane manufacturer looking to expand overseas, make a massive sale, or simply transport your cranes for a project outside of Australia, we handle that, too.
Whether you’re looking to bring them in or ship them out, SOHKI LTD takes care of your cranes at port, at sea, and on the way to your jobsite.
Long-term dry hire crane
The primary benefit of dry hire cranes is their simplicity. There is no requirement to select a crane, initiate the purchase process or allocate funds. Upon completion of your next project, you simply return the crane to us and the billing is halted.
*Please note that we do not accept short-term dry hire. Please enquire about hire periods. Should you require any further information about Dry Hire, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Hire to purchase
Looking to buy a crane for your fleet, but not sure which crane is right for you? Don’t have hundreds of thousands of dollars sitting in your bank account? SOHKI’s Hire To Purchase option might be for you.
Here’s how it works: you pick out a crane, we set up a payment plan, and you get that crane. No saving up.
Our Hire To Purchase option means while you’re hiring a crane, you’re paying off a part of the price to buy it. Once your hire contract ends, you can choose to leave it at that – just a hire – or to buy according to a payment plan we made at the beginning.
A brand new crane for your long-term job
Our mobile crane dry hire services are available across Australia, including in:
When you enter a long-term dry hire contract with SOHKI LTD of two years or more, we acquire a brand-new crane for you with your company colours and sign. Our range of brand-new Tadano and Kato crane options include city cranes, rough terrain cranes, and truck cranes from 13-130 tonnes.
SOHKI LTD orders your brand new crane in Australia, handling all the associated paperwork for you - and if you decide you want to keep the crane afterwards, we can arrange that as well.
