Eighty tons is the rating at the crane's shortest radius. On your job the number that matters is what it can pick at the distance it actually has to reach, and that falls off quickly as the boom extends. This is why a 20,000 lb load can be an easy pick or an impossible one depending on where it has to land.
The RT880E is the largest rough terrain in our fleet, and it is the machine we send when a site is unimproved but the load is still serious. Tilt-up and precast panel setting, structural steel on a dirt pad, tank and vessel sets, solar and utility work, and mechanical equipment that has to clear a building.
Give us the weight, the radius and a description of the ground and we will size the pick. If a 70-ton or a 50-ton does the job, we will tell you, because sending more crane than the lift needs costs you money and mobilization time you did not need to spend.
What we can confirm about the unit in our yard. We do not publish numbers copied off a spec aggregator for a different build.
| Spec | Detail | What it means for your job |
|---|---|---|
| Make and model | Grove RT880E | The model number is the term to search and the sheet the chart is issued against |
| Rated capacity | 80 ton | Maximum rating at minimum radius. Capacity at your radius comes off the chart |
| Crane type | Rough terrain | Built to travel and set up on unimproved ground rather than paved access |
| Model year | 2010 | The year of the unit that will show up on your job |
| Units in fleet | 1 | Owned and parked at the 16th Street yard, not brokered from another yard |
| Rental type | Operated or bare | Operator, rigging and lift plan included on operated jobs |
| Load chart | With quote | Issued for this unit in the configuration your lift needs |
We publish only what we can stand behind. Boom and jib lengths, dimensions, weights and the load chart come with the quote, off the sheet for the actual unit in our yard rather than a number copied from a spec site for a different build of the same model.
10%
Whatever you are paying for an equivalent 80-ton rough terrain crane today, we go 10% under it going forward. Not an introductory rate that quietly resets after the first job. Send the invoice, or just describe the work and we will quote it against the market and apply the discount anyway.
There is no rate card on this page on purpose. Every job gets quoted for what it actually is.

A rough terrain of this size earns its keep on ground a truck crane cannot use.
Concrete and tilt-up crews
Panel setting on a site that is still dirt, where a truck crane would be stuck at the gate.
Structural steel
Setting members on unimproved pads before the paving crew has been anywhere near it.
Mechanical and HVAC
Large rooftop units, chillers and cooling towers that need reach as well as capacity.
Solar and utility contractors
Pole, array and equipment work across open ground away from paved access.
Tank and vessel setters
Water, process and fuel tanks placed on prepared pads.
Anyone whose crane just went down
Mid-pour, mid-set, mid-schedule. That is emergency work and it moves to the front of the queue.
You are hiring a lift, not a machine. The pieces that normally get sourced separately arrive as one line of responsibility.
A certified operator
Confirmed before the crane moves. You are not sourcing one per job.
Rigging for the pick
Blocks, spreader bar, slings and crane mats as the lift actually needs.
The lift plan drawn
For your load, your radius and your ground, not a generic load chart.
COI verified before release
Insurance is checked on our side, every job, before iron leaves the yard.
Delivered on our own trucks
Tri-axle tractors, lowboys to 75 ton and a 53 ft flatbed. The haul is ours.
Photo walk-around
Condition recorded at drop and pick-up, so damage never becomes a dispute.
The two look interchangeable on a rate sheet and are not interchangeable on a site.
Truck crane, 40 to 60 ton
Rough terrain, 80 ton
All-terrain, 120 ton
Operated crane work bills against an hourly minimum, portal to portal. The clock runs from our yard and back rather than only while the crane sits on your pad, which is standard for operated service and is the number people forget to compare when they shop a rate.
A rigger or signal person is added per man when the pick calls for one. There is no fuel surcharge and no counterweight fee. Larger jobs are quoted as clean separate lines so mobilization, setup and crane time are each visible instead of rolled into one figure you cannot check.
Yes. If you have your own certified operator, the same crane is available bare and we deliver it on our own lowboy the same way. You take on the operator, the rigging and the lift plan; the machine and the haul are ours.
Most contractors take the operated option, because operator certification, rigging gear and the lift plan are precisely the parts that are awkward and slow to source job by job. But the fleet is the same either way, and the choice is yours to make on the quote.
We quote per job rather than publishing a rate, because the same crane costs very differently on two jobs. These are the variables that move the number, so you can check any quote you get, ours included.
Radius, not just weight
How far out the load sits decides the configuration and sometimes the crane class itself. It is the single most misjudged input.
Time on the clock
Operated work bills portal to portal against an hourly minimum, so travel from the north Phoenix yard counts.
Mobilization distance
The crane rides to you on our lowboy, and the move is quoted from the yard so you can see it separately.
Ground and matting
Bearing capacity and outrigger pads change setup time. Crane mats come off the same lot when the pad needs them.
Rigging and crew
A rigger or signal person is added per man when the pick calls for one, and the gear comes with the crane.
Access and permits
Tight approaches, street or lane closures and traffic control add coordination that belongs on the quote.
10%
Send us the invoice you pay today for an equivalent 80-ton crane and we will go 10% under it going forward.
Beat my rateThe yard is at 21815 N 16th St in north Phoenix. The move is quoted from there, so the closer the job sits to the North Valley, the shorter and cheaper the haul.
Most of this crane's work is metro Phoenix, where the move is short and same day is often possible. We run it statewide across Arizona for larger jobs, and out of state when a project justifies the mobilization.
Metro cities we run to most
If the crane you were counting on goes down mid-pour, mid-set or mid-schedule, we run a replacement out of whatever is available in the yard rather than telling you to move the date. Dispatch starts at 4:30am, six days a week, and emergency work goes to the front of the queue.
Everything here is owned and parked on 16th Street in north Phoenix. Swipe through, or open any machine for its page.
