Drywall trucks, built and kept working
We build drywall crane trucks to order on PM cranes, help you find a good used one, and keep every make of drywall truck working with parts, service and repair from our shop in Orlando, Florida.
What a drywall truck has to do
A drywall truck is a crane, a flatbed and a set of forks that have to work as one machine. The crane has to reach the third, fourth or fifth floor window with a full fork of board, the bed has to carry the load without flexing, and the outriggers have to hold the truck level on a job site that is never flat. When any one of those is wrong, the whole truck is wrong.
Robert's Diesel Works has built, repaired and serviced drywall crane trucks in Orlando since 1989. This site covers the drywall truck side of that work. Our main site, drywallcranes.com, carries the full crane line, current crane truck listings and the PM manual library.
Talk to someone who builds drywall trucks
Tell us the crane, the truck and what you need: a new build, a used truck, a part or a repair. Give us the model and serial number when you have them.
New drywall crane trucks, built to order
We are an authorized PM crane dealer, and we build drywall trucks from the ground up: you choose the chassis, the crane and the options, and our fabrication shop builds the bed, mounts the crane and plumbs the truck. PM drywall cranes come in four, five and six story reach. See new drywall crane trucks.
Used drywall trucks
A good used drywall truck is often the right call. We help buyers find one, check one over before they buy, or mount a used crane on the chassis they already own. Current crane truck listings are at drywallcranes.com. See used drywall trucks.
Parts for every make of drywall crane
We source parts for the cranes drywall contractors actually run: PM (as an authorized dealer), plus Fassi, Hiab, Palfinger, IMT, Prentice and others as an independent shop, new and used, by model and serial number.
