Specialized Equipment. Precise Execution.
Some equipment moves demand more than lifting power. They require specialized tools, careful coordination, and an experienced rigging team capable of working within tight spaces, active facilities, and sensitive environments.
Coker Crane & Rigging provides expanded rigging services for the safe movement, installation, relocation, and precise placement of industrial equipment throughout Jacksonville, Northeast Florida, and the Southeastern United States.
Using electric and propane forklifts, equipment-moving robots, specialty skates, gantry cranes, and other purpose-built rigging systems, our team develops a solution around the load, the facility, and the operational requirements of each project.
Complete Rigging Solutions for Complex Equipment Moves
Every facility presents different challenges. Limited access, low overhead clearance, sensitive equipment, occupied spaces, and strict operating requirements can all affect how a load must be moved. Coker evaluates those conditions and selects the right combination of equipment, personnel, and rigging methods for the job.
Our expanded rigging capabilities include:
- Industrial equipment moving and relocation
- Equipment installation, removal, and replacement
- Indoor and confined-space rigging
- Precision equipment positioning and final placement
- Electric and propane forklift support
- Equipment-moving robots for controlled transport
- Specialty machinery skates and dollies
- Gantry crane lifting and positioning
- Loading, unloading, and equipment transfers
- Multi-phase equipment moves and facility upgrades
Whether a machine needs to move across a production floor or be carefully positioned within a new operating space, Coker brings the specialized resources needed to complete the work safely and efficiently.
Rigging for Clean Rooms and Controlled Environments
Clean rooms and other controlled environments require an added level of planning and discipline. Equipment must often be moved through restricted access points and placed within tight tolerances while crews coordinate around facility procedures, cleanliness requirements, active operations, and sensitive surroundings.
Coker supports clean-room and controlled-environment projects with carefully selected rigging equipment and a detailed execution plan. Battery-electric forklifts and equipment-moving robots can be especially valuable when operating indoors or in environments where space, emissions, and equipment control are important considerations.
Our team coordinates closely with facility representatives, contractors, equipment vendors, and other project stakeholders to help protect the environment, minimize disruption, and achieve precise final placement.
Specialized Equipment for the Job
The right equipment can make the difference between a difficult move and a well-controlled one. Depending on the load and site conditions, Coker may deploy:
- Electric forklifts for indoor and sensitive work areas
- Propane forklifts for versatile material handling support
- Remote-controlled equipment-moving robots
- Low-profile machinery skates for heavy loads and restricted clearances
- Gantry crane systems for lifting where conventional crane access is limited
- Specialized rigging hardware, blocking, cribbing, and load-control equipment
Equipment selection is based on load specifications, access, floor conditions, clearances, operating requirements, and the final placement plan. Our team does not force a project into a standard approach; we build the approach around the project.

Our Expanded Rigging Process
1. Site and Equipment Evaluation
We review the equipment specifications, weight, center of gravity, access points, floor conditions, clearances, operating environment, and final placement requirements.
2. Rigging and Logistics Planning
Our team develops a project-specific plan that identifies the appropriate rigging method, equipment, crew, route, sequencing, and coordination requirements.
3. Equipment and Site Preparation
We prepare the load and work area, confirm the travel path, establish protective measures, and coordinate with project stakeholders before movement begins.
4. Controlled Movement
Experienced rigging professionals use the selected forklifts, robots, skates, gantry cranes, and support equipment to move the load safely through the facility or jobsite.
5. Precise Final Placement
We position the equipment in its designated location and coordinate the handoff for installation, connection, or the next phase of work.
