Your expensive excavator, bulldozer, or crane arrives exactly where it needs to be, exactly when you need it there. No scratches, no broken hydraulic lines, no “oops, we didn’t know about that permit” delays that push your timeline back weeks.
You get equipment that’s properly secured, fully insured during transport, and handled by people who understand what a $200,000 machine means to your operation. The difference between us and someone who just “has a trailer” becomes clear when you see your equipment roll off our truck in the same condition it left.
Your construction schedule stays on track. Your equipment stays protected. Your budget stays predictable.
We’ve been moving heavy equipment around Bolton Landing, NY since 1997. We understand the rocky terrain, the tight lakefront access roads, and the environmental regulations that come with working near Lake George.
Josh Emerson is on-site for most moves, ensuring your equipment gets the attention it deserves. We’re not a faceless company that shows up, loads your machine, and disappears. We’re the local family business that has to look you in the eye at the hardware store next week.
That accountability matters when you’re trusting someone with equipment that costs more than most people’s houses.
First, we assess your equipment and the pickup/delivery locations to determine the right trailer and any permit requirements. No guessing games about what’s needed or surprise costs later.
We handle all permits and route planning, especially important in Bolton Landing where Lake George regulations and seasonal road restrictions can complicate transport. Our equipment is properly sized for local conditions – powerful enough for heavy machinery, maneuverable enough for tight lakefront properties.
On moving day, we arrive on schedule with the right equipment. Your machinery gets properly secured using professional-grade chains, straps, and blocking. We coordinate with your timeline so your operators or contractors can be ready when we arrive. When we’re done, your equipment is exactly where you need it, ready to work.

Lake George properties often have narrow driveways, steep grades, and limited turning radius. We assess each site beforehand to determine the best approach and ensure we can complete the delivery without property damage.

For standard equipment moves in Bolton Landing, we recommend scheduling 3-5 days in advance. This allows time for permit processing and route planning, especially during busy construction season.
Emergency moves can often be accommodated within 24-48 hours, though permit requirements may limit options for immediate transport. Peak construction season (May through October) requires more advance notice due to higher demand.
Winter moves are possible but may face weather-related delays. We monitor conditions closely and communicate any schedule adjustments well in advance so your project timeline isn’t affected.
Yes, all equipment is fully insured during transport with comprehensive cargo coverage. Our insurance covers equipment damage, theft, and accidents during loading, transport, and unloading.

You’ll receive proof of insurance before your move begins. Unlike companies that only have basic liability coverage, our comprehensive cargo insurance protects your investment throughout the entire transport process.
Absolutely. We understand that equipment delivery timing is critical to keeping construction projects on schedule. We work closely with contractors, builders, and equipment operators to ensure delivery happens exactly when needed.

Our local presence means we can respond quickly to schedule changes or urgent equipment needs. When your timeline shifts, we adjust with you rather than forcing you to work around our schedule.
