Bigge and Liebherr Reinforce Partnership with the Addition of the LRT 1130 to Bigge’s Perfect Fleet

May 26, 2023

Bigge Crane and Rigging Co. is excited to announce the addition of Liebherr’s newest LRT 1130-2.1 rough terrain crane to its Perfect Fleet at ConExpo 2023. This powerful German-engineered crane features 140-ton lifting capacity and the longest telescopic boom of any two-axle rough terrain crane globally.

Bigge has long been committed to providing their customers with the highest quality cranes from top manufacturers, and this newest addition is no exception. The Liebherr LRT 1130-2.1 offers the same quality, performance and strength that have come to be expected from Liebherr while also being economical to transport and safe to operate.

Adding this piece of equipment to Bigge’s Perfect Fleet further cements its reputation as one of America’s leading suppliers of heavy lift cranes for industrial and commercial construction projects. With an impressive selection of over 1,800 cranes that now includes the Liebherr LRT 1130-2.1, Bigge remains a reliable source for all heavy lifting needs for customers coast to coast.

At the celebratory event at ConExpo, Bigge and Liebherr celebrated their successful, long-standing partnership. “We are excited to add our first Liebherr Rough Terrain crane to our Perfect Fleet,” said Weston Settlemier, President and CEO of Bigge Crane and Rigging Co. “The 140-ton RT fits perfectly between the nation’s largest fleet of 130- and 160-ton RTs.”

“We are incredibly excited that the Liebherr LRT 1130-2.1 is joining Bigge’s Perfect Fleet,” shared Pierre Bilgeri, Division Director of Mobile and Crawler Cranes for Liebherr USA, about his excitement for Bigge’s addition to their Rough Terrain offering.

If you are interested in renting this LRT 1130 for your upcoming project or are considering purchasing one, visit Bigge.com for details.
