About Aurora
Aurora is one of Colorado's largest cities, spanning parts of Arapahoe, Adams and Douglas counties east of Denver. Much of its housing was built in the second half of the 20th century and later.
Regional considerations
Wind along the Front Range, especially near the foothills, can affect crane operations, and lifts are postponed when conditions exceed limits. Altitude does not change crane load charts, but weather windows and ground conditions after snowmelt matter.

Before you send an inquiry
- Mention whether you need an operator, rigging, delivery, permits or traffic control, or plan to handle those yourself.

Verify before you hire
Licensing, permit and insurance requirements are set by the state and local jurisdiction where the work happens, and they can differ between neighboring cities. Ask any provider which requirements apply in Aurora, and confirm details with the relevant agency when it matters.
