The Crane Maintenance Department is responsible for maintaining and enhancing the cargo handling cranes of the Maryland Port Administration.  These cranes provide productive, reliable and safe operation for our customers.

Optimum crane maintenance is accomplished by electro-mechanical crane technicians who meticulously maintain and oversee crane operations around the clock.

Our highly-trained workforce services cargo-handling cranes at three public marine terminals as well as a 300-ton mobile crane.   To provide efficient service, crane maintenance personnel are assigned to four response groups:  Dundalk Crane Maintenance, Seagirt Crane Maintenance, Locust Point Crane Maintenance and the Crane Maintenance Support Group.

The Dundalk Crane Maintenance Group provides service for the nine container and 12  rubber-tired gantry cranes at Dundalk Marine Terminal.  They also provide necessary crane support for cruise vessels.

The Seagirt Crane Maintenance Group provides service for the seven state-of-the-art container cranes located at the Seagirt Marine Terminal.

The Locust Point Crane Maintenance Group provides service for the two whirly cranes and one container crane at the North Locust Point Marine Terminal and one 100-ton whirly crane at the South Locust Point Marine Terminal.
      
The Crane Maintenance Support Group provides the necessary personnel to transport and position the Port's 300-ton mobile crane, known as “Big Red”.  They also provide repair work for the spreaders located at the Dundalk, Seagirt and Locust Point marine terminals. This group also assists by maintaining any structures or platforms needed by the crane department, such as the gangway for the cruise vessels.
      
The Crane Maintenance Department is a team of multi-talented individuals that work together as one cohesive unit to help Baltimore keep its position as one of the top cargo ports in the United States.
