What should I look for in a film crane rental supplier?

I asked myself the same question when I was looking into film crane hire last year. There are many companies that rent out cranes, and many of them don’t come cheap, so it’s important to look around and make sure you get the best value for money.

I eventually decided to go with Lee Lifting, but not before exploring all my options. Here’s what I looked for:

– Cost
It goes without saying, but the cost is one of the most important factors. In film & TV, you have to make the most of your limited budget, so try to get the best price possible.

– Reliability
You have to balance cost with quality. If you choose a company that isn’t reliable, it could cost you more in the long run. Look for customer testimonials and reviews, and check how long they’ve been operating to assess their reliability.

– Experience with what you’re trying to achieve
There are many different uses for cranes in a film. You’ll want to make sure that the company you use understands what you need the film crane for and has experience in delivering that service.

I hope this helps!
