This week, the crew found themselves tackling one of our more unusual jobs — helping remove the beached whale from City Beach.
Contracted by Tonca Earthmoving for the Town of Cambridge, our job was to get this rather large passenger from the beach to a spot where it could be loaded and transported to Redhill Landfill.
And naturally, you don’t move a whale with your average bit of machinery… so we called in an 85T excavator from KLF Hire. 🏗️
Once the whale was in position, Urban Cranes and OSE Rigging took over the heavy lifting — quite literally — and loaded it into one of our trucks.
Then it was over to us to haul the big fella off to Redhill. 🚛🐋
Definitely not your everyday delivery, but when the job calls for a whale, you’ve got to be ready to go with the flow. 🌊
A massive thanks to everyone involved — Tonca Earthmoving, the Town of Cambridge, KLF Hire, Urban Cranes and OSE Rigging — for pulling together and getting this rather extraordinary job done safely and efficiently.
We’ve moved plenty of big loads over the years… But this one was certainly a bit of a blowout. 🐋💨😂
