What Is Heavy Rigging?
Heavy rigging is the process of lifting, moving, positioning, and installing large or oversized equipment safely and accurately. This can include manufacturing machinery, structural components, construction materials, processing equipment, HVAC systems, tanks, conveyors, generators, and more.
Because these lifts often involve tight spaces, uneven surfaces, coordination with cranes, and careful load balancing, heavy rigging requires specialized equipment and highly skilled operators.
McDowell Crane & Rigging has spent more than 70 years refining these capabilities. Our team understands the physics, safety standards, and precision that every project demands—no matter the size or level of complexity.
