For lighter work or tighter project requirements, compare the 20T Franna. For heavier pick-and-carry work, review the 40T Franna. If the lift requires greater height or reach rather than pick-and-carry mobility, compare all-terrain cranes.

Find answers to common questions about our crane hire services, equipment, operators, and project support.
What will a MAC 25T Franna cost me in Melbourne?
Pricing moves with how long you need it, how far we travel, ground conditions, and whether an operator comes along. Metro jobs usually dodge float charges since the crane drives itself in. Ring 0457 000 637 with your details for a firm number.
Where does the name MAC 25 come from?
It is simply the model designation Terex uses for the 25 tonne machine in its Franna line. Walk onto any decent-sized Australian site, and this is the pick and carry crane you are most likely to see parked up.
What sort of loads suit this machine?
Structural steel packages, factory equipment, precast panels, framing bundles, containers, tanks and recovery jobs all fall inside its working range. Ratings drop as the boom pushes out, which is why the chart travels with every quote.
Would I be better off with the 20T?
Depends entirely on your bottleneck. If getting the machine through a gap is the problem, take the 20T. If holding weight out at distance matters more, the MAC 25 is the one you want.
Is an operator included?
The 20T is the most compact, ideal for tight access and general lifting. The MAC 25T adds capacity and stability for medium to heavy lifts. The AT 40 is the largest pick and carry crane in the range, built for heavy steel, plant and equipment.
Can I keep it on site for a fortnight?
Plenty of builders do exactly that through a construction stage rather than booking each morning. Longer engagements attract better rates, so mention the duration when you enquire.
How far do you travel?
Every metro suburb, plus Geelong, Bacchus Marsh, Melton, Werribee, Ballarat and the surrounding Western Victoria towns. Sitting on the Western Freeway keeps our travel charges sensible from either direction.
When could the crane be on site?
Same day or first thing tomorrow for most metro and Geelong work, availability permitting. We answer the phone at any hour, so overnight and emergency jobs are handled the same way.
