Atlas Crane was established in 2009 by Zach Prentis. Zach would serve as CEO until 2024 and remains on the Board of Directors.
Zach’s vision of starting his own crane company was set in motion with the purchase of the first crane which he parked in his driveway, from this beginning Atlas Crane was born.
Taking on projects small and large, Zach’s think big philosophy, vision and culture created tremendous company growth. By 2014 Zach grew the company to over 50 employees with 10 acres in Aurora Illinois.
After 7 years, the company moved to its current headquarters in Aurora, Illinois. Then opened additional branches in Peru, Illinois and Atlantic, Iowa to improve responsiveness to a rapidly growing Midwest Region.
In 2022 the company was acquired by Ares Management. With continued branch expansion throughout the country, Atlas Crane has grown to become a nation-wide provider. Today, the company has grown to over 200 employees, operating the largest fleet of new Liebherr cranes in the country, serving customers from coast to coast.
