Lifting on Southern Vancouver Island since 2003
Russel's Crane & Cartage began as Murray's Crane and Cartage in 2003. Russel Lambert, a long-time Murray's employee, bought the Westshore-based business in May 2014 and has kept the same safe, reliable crane service under the new name.
Worker, equipment and structural safety is our top priority. Our certified operators have handled some of Victoria's most unusual lifts, from the orca sculptures at the Inner Harbour to the tower clock at Uptown Centre.
