About Baxter Crane & Rigging
Baxter Crane and Rigging is a 100% Employee-owned business (ESOP) serving Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We have a full range of cranes and equipment from a 26-ton boom truck to a 300 ton all-terrain, as well as forklifts, tractor trailers, and specialized rigging gear. Baxter Cranes & Rigging is a service-driven crane and rigging company supporting commercial, industrial, and infrastructure projects. The company operates a diverse fleet ranging from fast-setup boom trucks to heavy all-terrain cranes, allowing them to handle everything from routine lifts to complex, planned work.
What sets Baxter apart is a focus on execution. Jobs are approached with planning, communication, and the right equipment for the site—not overcomplication. The team works closely with contractors, engineers, and site supervisors to align on lift requirements, safety expectations, and scheduling before work begins.
Baxter’s goal is simple: show up prepared, perform the lift safely, and keep projects moving without surprises.
How Baxter Executes Tilt-Up Work
For Tilt-Up, we align early with your team to confirm scope, access, pick locations, and sequencing, then coordinate rigging needs and day of communication so the lift integrates cleanly with the rest of the jobsite plan.
Confirm scope and constraints
We confirm what is being lifted, where it needs to land, access limits, staging, and any site rules that affect the plan.
Build the handling and sequence plan
We align crane selection, rigging needs, pick locations, and timing around the order the work must happen.
Execute site coordination
We coordinate setup, lift communication, and handoffs so crews stay aligned and the site stays predictable.
Closeout and next steps
We confirm completion, align demobilization timing, and coordinate follow on lifts if additional phases are coming.
Tilt-Up Lift Frequently Asked Questions
We start with your load weight, pick radius, and site constraints. Our team walks the job, identifies ground conditions, and builds a lift plan that removes guesswork. You get a clear picture of what's needed before we show up.
Tight spaces are common in commercial construction and urban projects. We match the right crane type to your footprint—boom trucks for narrow corridors, all-terrain cranes for rough terrain, mobile cranes for open sites. Access constraints don't stop us.
Yes. Industrial plants and infrastructure work often need staged lifts over weeks or months. We schedule around your timeline, coordinate with your crew, and keep costs predictable with fixed rates for each phase.
Same-day or next-day service is standard across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. We maintain equipment at our yard and keep licensed operators ready. Your schedule drives ours, not the other way around.
Every lift meets OSHA requirements and industry best practices. Our operators are licensed, our equipment is inspected regularly, and our rigging is done by trained professionals. Safety isn't negotiable on any job.

Lift Support From Planning to Placement
Baxter provides operated crane service, rigging, high capacity forklift support, and storage and transportation across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Tell us what you are lifting, where the job is, and your timeline and we will help match the right equipment and crew so the lift stays safe and the project stays organized.
Licensed Operators and Planned Lifts
Operated Crane Services
Baxter provides the crane and an experienced operator so your crew can stay focused on the work around the lift. We help confirm the key details up front, including what is being lifted, where it is going, and the site conditions that affect setup. The goal is a controlled lift, clear communication on site, and a job that stays organized from arrival through final placement.
Secure Lifts Start With Proper Rigging
Rigging Services
Rigging is what keeps a lift stable and predictable. Baxter supports lifts with the right rigging approach for the load and the placement, helping reduce risk to people, property, and equipment. We coordinate with your team so the lift is set up correctly, the load is handled with care, and the pick moves smoothly from start to finish.
Heavy Moves Without a Crane
High Capacity Forklift
When the job is heavy but does not require a crane pick, a high capacity forklift or telehandler can be the most efficient option. Baxter provides operated forklift support to move, stage, and place equipment safely on active job sites. This keeps work moving, reduces congestion, and helps crews stay on schedule without tying up crane time.
Staging and Delivery That Matches Your Schedule
Storage and Transportation
Baxter supports projects beyond the lift by helping with storage, staging, and transportation. We can coordinate delivery timing, hold materials when needed, and reduce job site clutter so crews have the right items on site at the right time. When storage and transport are aligned with lift scheduling, projects run smoother and the day stays predictable.
