Heavy Lift
The Capacity to Match the Extreme
With one of the most robust heavy lift fleets in the world, Deep South has the capacity to complete even the most complex projects. Ranked 9th in the world by International Cranes & Specialized Transport, we have a diverse group of heavy lift cranes, ranging from the 3,000T VersaCrane™ TC-36000/S2 workhorse to the new 1,760T Terex CC 8800-1 crawler crane. See how Deep South can reduce project downtime with one of our heavy lift cranes by calling or emailing us today.
Our Heavy Lift Fleet Includes:
- VersaCranes™ to 3,000T
- Crawler cranes to 1,400T
- Lattice boom and hydraulic truck cranes to 1,320T capacity
Heavy Lifting in Confined Areas
In a tight spot? The brilliance of the VersaCrane™ fleet is its ability to maintain high capacity while fitting in confined spaces and maintaining low ground bearing pressures. Our intricate knowledge of these cranes allows us to make job-specific crane modifications based on the needs of the job. And our ability to move VersaCranes™ via SPMTs saves time and money.
Deep South has a large fleet of equipment to allow the movement of vessels to wherever they need to be set, including VersaCranes™ to 3,000T, crawler cranes to 1,760T, truck cranes to 1,320T, and rigging hardware/specialty devices up to 1,600T. Deep South also has self-propelled modular transporters, over-the-road/dual-lane transport systems, towed hydraulic modular transporters, temporary bridge systems, levee crossing systems, lift towers, strand jacks, hydraulic gantries, hydraulic skid and hydraulic jacking systems, and marine and rail securement systems.
From our experienced engineers and project managers to our skilled craftsmen, riggers, and crane operators, Deep South's diligent pursuit of safety and innovation has provided our clients a path to on-time and successful projects. We can create lift plans or PE-stamped drawings and custom solutions as needed. Leaning on this expertise, coupled with a broad array of equipment, helps us to provide the absolute best in safety, service, and solutions. Whatever the project, the team at Deep South is ready to meet your challenge.

Many Lifts, One Solution: Modular Lift System Flexes Hydraulic Muscles During Process Plant Overhaul
Deep South crews were challenged to haul, lift, and set 84 modules, including three towers (one measuring 100’ long, 350,000 lbs.) as well as various pieces of process equipment, such as piping, tanks, PDC buildings, and transformers—all within a tight schedule. Many of the modules had offset centers of gravity further complicating the lift and set.

Facilitating a Refinery Column Placement in Tight Confines
Transporting, placing, and lifting a refinery column — one that is comparable to the height and weight of the Statue of Liberty — is a familiar challenge for heavy lift, heavy haul experts like Deep South. Maneuvering it around existing racks and systems adds another layer of complexity.
