Two cranes, one delicate lift. When Purity Cylinder Gases needed an old tank removed and a new one set for their upgrade, we handled the heavy lifting on both ends — removing the original tank and laying it down onto our trailer to haul to Purity's Elkhart, IN facility, then back on-site, using a two-crane operation to stand up and set the new tank as it arrived laying flat on a delivery truck. Watch the coordination it takes to get this kind of job done right.
