If you are looking for a crane service, you can stop looking. Champion Crane is as good as it gets. I ordered a 42" fridge that ended up being too wide to make the turn up my outside stairs. So, a crane would be the only way, as it needed to be lifted onto the balcony over the garage. Crane was very responsive and I was able to schedule the delivery people and them for a date and time only a couple of weeks away. It took less than one hour to crane the new fridge up and take the old one down (see pics). Not only was the service amazing, the price was remarkably reasonable. And, Tony and Kathy just happen to be really great people. I cannot recommend them any more highly for any large items like fridges, hot tubs, beams... You can't go wrong. read more

I called Champion Crane and spoke with Kathy. The specific job I have would require a larger crane than they have. Kathy told me this right up front but rather than hanging up, she asked questions about the site and the project. I sent her some drawings and she checked Google Earth to get a sense of the area. She recommended three different companies to me who she knows have larger cranes. Although we are not working on this project, her helpfulness and focus on customer success is very appreciated. read more

Tony and Cathy were great to work with and were professional from beginning to end. They had great communication and the job was done quickly, professionally and and a great value. I absolutely use them again! read more

We recently hired Champion Crane to lift a hot tub over our house and on to our deck. Tony and Kathy were friendly and professional from the first phone call to the completion of the project. They returned calls quickly, were transparent about pricing, and connected with the hot tub company to make this as smooth as possible. I always like supporting a family business and a one with a woman in charge is even better! I called several other companies for bids and they were all less responsive (or unresponsive), more expensive, and less friendly. Champion is the winner by far read more

Tony and his team are the best crane company in all of Bay Area. I was so impressed with Tony's professionalism, call to action with the tedious job I gave him, and his strong and positive attitude in getting it done! His business manager, Kathy, is also just as quick in response, caring and thoughtful and helped walk me through the whole process of making sure I was compliant with the city every step of the way. The project: we live in a midsized building in San Francisco and needed a crane to bring our refrigerator through our 4th floor window. We were able to get the job done safely and in a great time frame. Look no further if you need a crane for any project. Tony and his team are your answer. read more

Kathy and Tony at Champion Crane were a pleasure to work with. Kathy helped tremendously in finding a solution to getting my swimspa craned and manually moved by another vendor to a tricky part of my backyard. Their rate was the best of the east Bay Area crane companies I called. Tony was a pro in getting the spa on and off the flatbed truck of my mover. I may never need a crane for the rest of my life, but if I do, I know who to call! read more

I purchased two large mirrors for our penthouse which we weren't able to carry through our four-story home not because of weight (only 13lbs each) but because of their size. Desperate to find a solution I stumbled upon Champion Crane on Yelp. I was able to make an appointment within a week. Tony tied up the mirrors and hoisted them up to our rooftop patio where I received them. The whole process from start to finish only took about 30min and our penthouse dance studio is now complete. I highly recommend Champion Crane and will definitely call them again for future projects up on the top floor! read more

Champion Crane are really great!! I scheduled appointment in one week advance and they were in time. Unfortunately, I forgot to cancel appointment as was too buzzy.

So, definitely my fault which is cost me almost five hundred dollars! Don't repeat my mistakes guys:) read more

We bought furniture that could not make it to our 2nd floor living room due to a tight staircase. We called another company who recommended Champion to us. We were so glad they did. From start to finish, an incredibly positive experience. Tony was on time, extremely friendly, and very helpful. We had hired movers to help with moving the furniture, but they were late arriving. Tony took a look at the four pieces and offered to assist with the labor, so we cancelled the movers. His ability to lift and place large heavy pieces with such accuracy with his crane made moving them in a breeze. All done within an hour and at a very reasonable price. We will not hesitate to use this service again. Thanks Tony! read more

I'd recommend them to anyone who needs this service! read more

I have had nothing but excellent experience with Champion Crane. All of my requested times have been scheduled. Tony is ALWAYS there on time promised. He probably has a set of nerves extended to the crane itself because he's extremely smooth and fast in the operation of his shiny new machine! Prices always fit the budget. He needs a 80 ton rig so I can call him out on everything. Just saying. If you need something lifted and set in place way up there, give them a call! read more

Kathy and Tony were wonderful. My Spa was dropped off in my driveway and I didn't know how I was going to get it in my yard. I searched and found Champion Crane in Newark.

Could not have done it (safely!) without Champion Crane. Scheduling was simple, Tony the operator was amazing, worth every dollar. I don't want to volunteer his labor but Tony saw I was in a pinch with no labor help and instead of being "planted on the platform" he helped me strap up the beams & posts and he moved them into position for me to bolt in with a surgeon's precision. Gave me lots of tips and advice. This was after working all night 10pm-4am at a glass hi rise building job in downtown SF. Thank you Champion Crane! This project was in January, just got around to posting. read more

Fantastic, fantastic service. From the moment I called and spoke to Kathy to after Tony had helped us reposition an outdoor entertainment system (weighing over 700 lbs) up to a second floor balcony. We had never used a crane service before and Tony was very patient and explained in a lot detail the process he was going to follow to get the unit in the right location. As he was going through the process he also took the time to explain what was happening keeping me calm as the unit had to be hoisted up and over our house. Thank you Tony and Kathy read more

I just spoke with Kathy. I am purchasing a hot tub and am need of a crane to lift it over the house to get it into the backyard. As it turns out, this company was not able to accommodate my need.

Should I ever need a crane, she will be the first person that I call or recommend in the future. read more

Our moving company hired Champion Crane to help us move furniture off a 5th-floor condo balcony in the Castro, San Francisco. This is the first time I've seen a crane in action for moving (actually it was the first time the moving crew had ever seen one, too). Tony skillfully and gently moved a 9-foot dining table, couch, love seat, armoire and patio table in about an hour or so. In just 90 seconds, each piece was carefully lifted and placed right beside the moving truck. No dents or dings taking corners, and so much easier on the crew! Well worth it. read more

I am very happy with the service and would use him again any time. read more
