Wollopit for crane hire companies

Crane hire: book the lift, the crane and the paperwork together. Lift plans that come with the booking.

Availability checked by phone, lift plans on paper and dockets chased for invoicing. We build booking and paperwork systems for crane hire businesses.

Looking for crane hire booking software?

Crane jobs need the right crane, operator, rigger and paperwork at the right time. We build systems that check availability and capture lift details at booking.

Wollopit builds project portals, compliance registers, quoting tools and websites for crane hire companies around how your sites actually run. We connect the systems you already use, replace the ones holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so the office and the site finally see the same numbers.

05How we work

The process

Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.

We get properly below the surface of your crane hire business: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.

  1. 01

    Think

    We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.

  2. 02

    Archi-tech

    We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.

  3. 03

    Build

    Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.

  4. 04

    Look after

    We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.

06Questions

FAQ

Things crane hire companies ask us.

Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.

Can customers book online directly?

Yes. Regular customers can request bookings online, with your team confirming once the crane and crew are allocated.

How much does it cost?

It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your crane hire business. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.

Can it work alongside the software we already use?

Usually, yes. We connect to your accounting, project and rostering tools and only replace what's holding you back. If something should go we'll explain why before anything changes.

Will it work on site with bad reception?

Yes. Field tools can save everything on the device and sync when the phone finds signal again, so nobody loses a docket or a photo.

Who looks after it once it's built?

We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
