- MGX Equipment Services remanufactured the first in a series of Manitowoc 2250 crawler cranes for Maxim Crane Works (Maxim) at its EnCORE facility in Belle Chasse, Louisiana; this first crane is part of a multiple-unit deal to refurbish a number of Maxim’s Manitowoc 2250 cranes.
- MGX partnered with Manitowoc’s EnCORE remanufacturing team and Maxim to complete the crane restoration project.
MGX Equipment Services successfully completed the remanufacturing of the first Manitowoc 2250 crawler crane for Maxim. This achievement represents a significant milestone in the ongoing collaboration among MGX, Maxim, and Manitowoc’s EnCORE team.
As the only coast-to-coast provider of turnkey lift services and crane rentals in the U.S., Maxim’s remanufactured Manitowoc 2250 crawler cranes will address growing demand in the construction of data centers, warehouses, and energy facilities.
“This is a significant moment for Maxim,” said Larry Lis, Chief Operations Officer of Maxim. “It represents a close collaboration among top players in the crane industry. The Manitowoc 2250 stands out in the 300 USt capacity class, striking the perfect balance between cost and performance for providing lift services and equipment rental.”
The Manitowoc 2250 crane is well-known for its strong capacity, adaptability, and efficiency, which makes it perfect for heavy construction, infrastructure, and industrial projects. Its sturdy design provides contractors with a reliable and cost-effective choice for offering comprehensive lift services and equipment rental solutions.
“These remanufactured 2250 cranes will be used to provide turnkey lift services and bare equipment rentals,” Lis explained. “The first one is headed to a major oil and gas facility in our Central Region.”
The remaining Manitowoc 2250 cranes are being systematically rebuilt and will gradually be integrated into Maxim’s nationwide rental fleet to support ongoing work. The ambitious refurbishment effort is set to continue through 2026 and involves remanufacturing several cranes at a time at EnCORE-certified MGX facilities in Louisiana and South Carolina.
“We currently have a significant number of Manitowoc 2250s in our fleet,” Lis added. “By partnering with MGX and Manitowoc for remanufacturing, we ensure top-tier performance for an additional 12-15 years at a fraction of the cost of new cranes. This positions us to meet nationwide demand while extending the life of these exceptional machines.”
