Crane Inspections in Launceston
Cranes in northern Tasmania work the range between city construction and Tamar Valley industry — vehicle loading cranes delivering steel, precast and materials around Launceston, pick-and-carry cranes moving plant through yards, and mobile cranes on the region's larger jobs. Many belong to transport and trade operators rather than dedicated crane firms, and that's exactly where periodic inspection obligations quietly slip until a builder or industrial client asks for the records.
EWP Australia inspects vehicle loading cranes, pick-and-carry and mobile cranes across Launceston and the Tamar Valley to AS 2550 and the relevant part for each crane type — structural, slew, winch, hook and load-path examination, NDT of critical welds and pins where the standard or condition requires it, and load testing with certified weights, all documented for site compliance reviews.

Crane Inspections in Launceston — Common Questions
There's one crane truck in my business — what does the law actually oblige me to keep up?
A periodic examination to AS 2550, with records ready to hand over when a builder or client asks. The crane is inspected, the paperwork completed properly, and you're given the date the next one is due.
Can the inspection be knocked over in the yard before the day's work begins?
Usually it can — an early booking that has the truck back out on the road the same morning is the standard way single-crane operators are handled.
