A lift detection and alert assembly for detecting lifting of a tow vehicle and for alerting a crane operator includes an alert module and a sensing module, which are mountable to a tow vehicle having a load engaged thereto. The alert module provides notification to an operator of a crane that is engaged to and operable upon the load. The sensing module detects vertical movement of the tow vehicle and signals the alert module thereof. The alert module notifies the operator of the crane in event the tow vehicle is being lifted in conjunction with the load to prevent damage to the tow vehicle and injury to a driver thereof. The present invention is anticipated for use with terminal tractors that are utilized to move shipping containers at cargo yards, warehouse facilities, and intermodal facilities.
