At NMT Crane Hire, we understand that not every job requires a massive crane. In many cases, especially in built-up areas, access and agility matter just as much as lifting power. That’s why we’ve invested in the KATO CR-350 35T City Crane, a compact and efficient machine designed specifically for urban lifting challenges.

Whether you’re working on a busy street, a residential project, or a restricted-access site, this crane brings reliable strength and flexibility.

About the KATO CR-350 35T City Crane

The KATO CR-350 is a 35-tonne capacity city crane built for precision and manoeuvrability. It combines a compact footprint with impressive lifting capabilities, making it ideal for tight, complex environments where larger cranes can’t operate efficiently.

Key specifications:

• Maximum lifting capacity: 35 tonnes
• Main boom: Up to 32 metres
• Additional jib options for extended reach
• Tight turning radius and compact wheelbase
• Designed for quick setup and inner-city access

What the KATO CR-350 Is Used For

This city crane is ideal for a wide range of lifting tasks, particularly where space is limited and speed is essential.

Urban Construction and Rooftop Access

Perfect for lifting materials to upper floors, rooftops, or balconies on sites with limited access and minimal setup space.

Maintenance and Utilities

Frequently used for HVAC units, telecommunications equipment, signage, and other routine maintenance jobs in commercial or residential areas.

Domestic Projects

Ideal for home builds, loft conversions, and smaller construction jobs where heavier equipment would be impractical or disruptive.

Plant and Machinery Movement

Handles small to mid-size machinery relocation where tight site access or busy surroundings limit options.

Where It Works Best

We deploy the KATO CR-350 across the UK, but it’s especially effective in urban centres and residential zones. Operating from our Bedfordshire base, we regularly service:

• London
• Milton Keynes
• Birmingham
• Oxford
• Luton
• Watford
• Cambridge

Its size, speed, and transportability make it ideal for responsive work where space or time is a constraint.

Why We Chose the KATO CR-350

Adding the KATO CR-350 to our fleet allows us to better serve clients who need:

• Rapid crane setup and removal
• Lifting solutions in space-constrained areas
• Reduced disruption on residential or commercial sites
• Cost-effective alternatives to larger crane hire

It’s a smart addition that complements our heavy lifting capabilities with flexible support for smaller jobs that still require specialist handling.

When it comes to running a reliable, nationwide heavy haulage and crane solution service, location matters, and at NMT Crane Hire, we believe we’re in just the right place. Our base in Bedfordshire isn’t just where our fleet is stored. It’s a strategic hub that allows us to serve clients efficiently all across the UK.

Here’s why Bedfordshire gives both us and our customers a real advantage in the world of cranes and haulage.

Central Location, Nationwide Reach

Bedfordshire is right in the heart of England. This central position gives us direct access to key routes such as the M1, A1, and A421, which connect us quickly to major cities like London, Birmingham, Oxford, Milton Keynes, and Cambridge. Whether a client is in the South East or the Midlands, our fleet can be on-site quickly and reliably.

Close to Major Infrastructure

Operating near important logistical centres such as London Luton Airport, the M25, and rail freight terminals means we can respond faster to high-priority jobs. This proximity also reduces downtime and improves flexibility – two major benefits when transporting oversized or time-sensitive loads.

Supporting Industries Across the Region

Bedfordshire is surrounded by counties that are thriving with construction, logistics, and infrastructure projects. From commercial developments in Milton Keynes, to transport upgrades in Greater London, to manufacturing operations across the Home Counties, our fleet is constantly on the move. Being local means we understand these regional industries and the demands they bring, and we’re always ready to deliver.

Fast Turnarounds, Less Congestion

Unlike central London or other built-up areas, Bedfordshire offers space and convenience. Our depot is easy to access for loading and dispatch, which means we can operate more efficiently. There’s less congestion, fewer delays, and smoother scheduling for your haulage and crane requirements.

With a fleet that includes the Leyland DAF Heavy Haulage Arctic Lorry and other specialist cranes and haulage vehicles, we’re built for transporting large, heavy, or awkward loads. And being based in Bedfordshire means we can do that quicker and more cost-effectively across the country.
