Who We Are

Rhino Specialty Services is a family-owned-and-operated crane and heavy haul company based in Odessa, Texas. We were built in the Permian Basin to serve the people who actually do the work โ€” and that's still who we work for today.

From wellsite rig-ups in West Texas to indoor lifts at a data center in Dallas, we run one of the most versatile fleets in the region โ€” 30 cranes โ€” 15 crawlers, 4 hydraulics, 11 Jekko Mini Crane mini cranes โ€” plus a full trucking fleet โ€” and we run it the way you'd run it: with your name on the door and your reputation on every job.

No subcontractors you didn't ask for. No finger-pointing. One team, one number, one invoice.

Our Story

Katrina and Pete Smith, founders of Rhino Specialty Services, in their Odessa yard with their Grove GMK4090 all-terrain crane at sunset

This is our first crane.

A red Grove GMK4090, parked at sunset in our Odessa yard โ€” the same yard she still calls home today. Just the two of us, a single all-terrain crane, and a bet that the Permian Basin needed a crane company that actually picked up the phone.

A few years later that one crane has grown into 30 cranes, a full trucking fleet, and a crew of ~50 โ€” but the way we work hasn't changed. Family owned. Family run. One call, everything handled.

Same number. Same answer. Same people.
