boom truck
Lift-equipped truck
A boom truck is a vehicle equipped with a hydraulic crane or extendable arm mounted on its chassis.
Utility companies use boom trucks to lift workers to power lines, and construction crews use them to hoist materials: The boom truck positioned the HVAC unit on the roof.
The boom can rotate and extend, giving operators reach and flexibility without a separate crane.
