Bigge Invests $100MM in New Equipment for Crane Rental at 2017 ConExpo



Bigge Crane and Rigging unveiled investments of more than $100 million in new equipment at the ConExpo-Con/Agg 2017 equipment expo.

Specifically, Bigge showcased purchases of 75 cranes, construction hoists and gantries at the massive heavy equipment event held every three years. These purchases add to Bigge’s fleet of more than 1,000 cranes, which support the world’s national rental and sales fleet.

“At Bigge, we endeavor to have the ‘perfect fleet of cranes.’ What this means to us is that we are always looking to deliver the right crane, to the right market at the right time. Our unique strategy allows our customers to leverage our expertise to deliver the maximum value to all of their projects,” said Weston Settlemier, president and CEO of Bigge Crane and Rigging. “At ConExpo this year, we’ve invested over $100 million dollars in capital expenditures to make our vision a reality for our valued customers.”

Bigge also placed orders for 27 new Terex cranes at ConExpo, including the Terex RT100 ton rough terrain cranes. Bigge is projecting large potential for both the 90 and 100 ton rough terrains, both for its rental and crane sales customers.

Bigge Crane and Rigging is a diversified crane and equipment rental, sales and project services company.
