Northland Crane Service

Northland Crane Service is a mobile crane company that supports the sign and billboard installation trade across the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area and greater Minnesota. Based in Elk River, Minnesota, the company provides the heavy-lift capability that sign fabricators and outdoor advertising operators rely on to erect billboards and other large signage safely and efficiently. Within the out-of-home advertising ecosystem, Northland occupies the crane and rigging niche, working alongside sign companies to hoist structures, poles, and advertising faces into position on projects throughout the Twin Cities and surrounding regions.

Its fleet of heavy-duty mobile cranes is equipped with National Crane lifting units, and the company typically deploys 30, 45, or 55-ton cranes for sign and billboard work, with the ability to supply larger cranes for bigger tasks. Beyond lifting, Northland offers crane hoisting, equipment transportation, equipment storage, and project management, giving sign contractors a coordinated resource for the logistics that surround an installation. The company describes over two decades of experience in the construction industry and services a wide list of Minnesota communities, including Minneapolis, St. Paul, St.

Cloud, Duluth, Rochester, Mankato, Brainerd, and many surrounding towns, as well as nearby markets such as Fargo and Hudson. For sign companies and billboard operators needing reliable crane support in Minnesota, Northland Crane Service provides operators, equipment, and lift planning tailored to signage installation.
