History

In 1969, Imperial Crane Services was established by John Bohne Sr. and single 25-ton truck crane. Since then, our family owned business has grown to be the largest locally owned crane service in the Midwest. We cater to heavy industrial accounts such as oil refineries and chemical plants while also servicing the busy daily construction market and any 24 hr, emergency needs.

Our company's success can be attributed to the team attitude our employees bring to the table when working on any project. Expect that when you call us you will receive prompt and knowledgeable service. Besides an enormous fleet of cranes and manlifts, we pride ourselves on our ability to consistently offer our clients one of the highest levels of service in our industry.

Over the years we have received scores of safety awards, while carrying an over $10 million dollar insurance umbrella that more that doubles what most of smaller local competitors carry. In order to maintain safety in our daily operations and big project build outs we maintain a fully staffed safety department, and an in-house maintenance and parts department to further ensure that all of our equipment and manpower are up to code and performing safe procedures.

As we invest millions of dollars back into our fleet every year, we see the future as a set of new challenges we will aggressively meet to continually outperform the competition.

Sincerely,
