At Garden State Engine & Equipment Co., Inc. (GSE&E), we are the Northeast’s premier destination for high-performance knuckleboom cranes. Also known as articulating cranes, these machines are the ultimate solution for complex lifting in tight spaces. Unlike traditional telescopic “stick” cranes, a knuckle boom features a jointed arm that can fold, bend, and reach over obstacles with the precision of a human finger. Our knuckle boom cranes are designed to provide maximum stability and precision, making them ideal for use in construction, industrial, and commercial settings. Whether you need to lift and move heavy equipment, materials, or products, our knuckle boom cranes are up to the task

From urban construction sites to heavy industrial applications, our on the ground inventory in Somerville, NJ and Deer Park, NY is ready to help you maximize your payload and minimize your job site footprint.

The Knuckleboom Advantage: Why Choose Articulating?

Contractors across New Jersey and beyond are switching to knuckle booms for three primary reasons:

• Superior Maneuverability: The jointed design allows you to reach into buildings, under bridges, and around power lines where a straight boom simply cannot fit.
• Increased Payload: Because these cranes fold compactly behind the cab or at the rear of the truck, you have more available deck space for hauling materials, often eliminating the need for a second transport vehicle.
• Precision Placement: Modern knuckle booms use advanced hydraulic systems and radio remote controls, allowing operators to place loads with surgical accuracy—perfect for HVAC units, steel beams, and delicate masonry.
