New Builds, Refurbishment and 24/7 Support: The Full MV Commercial Crane Truck Solution
Buying or hiring a crane truck is only one part of keeping an operation moving. Customers also need confidence that their vehicle has been built properly, tested thoroughly, supported professionally and backed by a supplier that understands the demands of commercial transport.
At MV Commercial, that complete support package is built into the business.
From the Grantham fabrication site through to in-house finance, ready-to-go stock, refurbishment, LOLER testing and 24/7 rapid response support, MV Commercial offers a full crane truck solution for operators across the UK.
New Crane Truck Production
MV Commercial’s Grantham supersite is now a fully integrated centre for crane truck manufacturing.
The facility manages almost the entire production process in-house, from chassis preparation and subframe fabrication through to crane installation, body assembly and final finishing. This gives MV Commercial control over build quality, specification and delivery timelines.
The site produces a wide range of crane vehicles, including crane flatbeds, crane beavertails, crane cheesewedges, crane artics and crane rigids.
With advanced robotic fabrication systems, structured production lines and skilled engineers working together, MV Commercial is able to deliver both scale and precision across its crane truck builds.
Refurbished Crane Trucks
In addition to new vehicle production, MV Commercial also operates a substantial refurbishment programme.
Vehicles are primarily sourced from MV Commercial’s own fleet or carefully selected part-exchanges, before being processed through the company’s workshop facilities. This allows MV Commercial to prepare high-quality used crane trucks for their next operator.
The refurbishment process can include structural rework, crane refurbishment and full LOLER testing, helping to ensure each vehicle meets the required standards for safety, compliance and performance.
For customers, this provides a cost-effective alternative to a new build without compromising on quality or capability.
Full LOLER Testing and Crane Expertise
Crane trucks operate in demanding environments, so compliance and safety are essential.
MV Commercial’s in-house crane engineers and workshop teams are able to refurbish, inspect and test equipment before it goes back into service. This gives customers reassurance that refurbished vehicles have been properly prepared by specialists who understand both the truck and the crane.
Whether the vehicle is a new build, an ex-hire unit or a part-exchange vehicle being prepared for resale, MV Commercial applies the same engineering focus across the process.
Ready-to-Go Stock When Time Matters
One of the biggest advantages of working with MV Commercial is availability.
The company holds one of the largest in-stock, ready-to-go fleets of specialist trucks, trailers and vans in the UK, with more than 400 trucks available across a wide range of sectors.
For crane truck customers, MV Commercial also maintains a continuous pipeline of vehicles at various stages of build. This means customers may be able to secure a suitable vehicle that is already in production, close to completion or ready for final specification adjustments.
For businesses needing to respond quickly to new contracts, replace a vehicle or expand capacity, this ready-to-go approach can help reduce lead times and keep work moving.
In-House Finance for LGV and HGV Operators
MV Commercial also supports customers through MV Asset Finance, its in-house finance company specialising in bespoke funding solutions for the LGV and HGV industry.
This allows customers to explore finance options tailored to their business, vehicle requirements and operating model.
Whether the customer is looking to buy a new crane truck, invest in a used specialist vehicle, add equipment to their fleet or secure a ready-to-go unit, in-house finance support helps make the process simpler.
Fleet Hire Options
Not every business needs to purchase outright.
MV Commercial also offers one of the widest ranges of high-specification trucks, trailers and vans available for hire, including short, medium and long-term hire options.
For crane truck operators, hire can provide useful flexibility. It can support seasonal demand, new contracts, project work, temporary fleet cover or capacity increases without the commitment of an immediate purchase.
24/7 Rapid Response Support
Support does not stop when the vehicle leaves the yard.
MV Commercial operates a 24/7 rapid response system for customers, helping keep businesses moving when a vehicle is off the road.
For operators relying on specialist crane trucks, downtime can be costly. Having access to responsive support, technical knowledge and practical assistance gives customers greater confidence that issues can be dealt with quickly and professionally.
A Complete Crane Truck Partner
MV Commercial’s strength lies in the way its services connect.
The company does not simply sell or hire crane trucks. It designs them, builds them, refurbishes them, finances them, supports them and keeps them moving.
That complete approach gives customers a single specialist partner for crane truck sales, crane truck hire, bespoke manufacturing, ready-to-go stock, refurbishment and aftersales support.
With continued investment at Grantham and a growing production pipeline, MV Commercial is well positioned to support operators across construction, utilities, plant, infrastructure, haulage and specialist lifting.
