Crane Inspections in Toowoomba
Cranes on the Darling Downs earn their keep across farming and freight — vehicle loading cranes on the trucks moving machinery, tanks and fabrications around the region, Frannas and mobile cranes on the construction and infrastructure work following Toowoomba's growth, and plenty of crane trucks belonging to trade and transport businesses rather than crane companies. That last group is exactly where periodic inspection obligations quietly slip until a principal contractor or a freight yard asks for the records.
EWP Australia inspects vehicle loading cranes, pick-and-carry and mobile cranes across Toowoomba and the Darling Downs 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 required, and certified load testing, all documented for site compliance reviews.

Crane Inspections in Toowoomba — Common Questions
It's just the one loader crane on my transport truck — what's the obligation?
That crane needs periodic examination under AS 2550, plus paperwork you can hand over the moment a freight depot or site controller wants proof. We carry out the exam, write it up in full and flag your next due date so nothing sneaks up.
Our crane barely leaves the yard — is it exempt from periodic checks?
No exemption applies — a yard-bound crane sits under exactly the same AS 2550 duties as one out on jobs. We come to it on site and keep the examination tight so it's back working with minimal interruption.
