New London, Wisconsin | Insurance is available if you lease it bare to others to operate. Perhaps that is what you have.
I owned a crane service for 22 years and recently retired from it. There is no way on earth I would rent out a crane without an operator. I did have customers ask. If you're not properly insured for that and the insurance company finds out you have done so, I can't imagine they will keep you as a customer. Proper certification and training is crucial and accidents happen even with that level of required crane operator training. Those that want to rent sometimes have all those qualifications, and in that case you would need to add them to the policy. Most who want to rent have no idea what they don't know.
This picture is from a job I was called to to "right a wrong". He had told the owner he knew how to run a crane. Obviously he didn't. He never even picked up the load when it went over. Sharp eyes can see why in the picture. I was still setting my crane up when I took this picture. I got it back up without further damage. I doubt he told the owner what happened.
