We’ve been serving Fayville, NY and the surrounding Capital Region since 1997. What started as a logging operation has evolved into a full-service excavation and heavy equipment moving company, with Josh’s son joining as a partner in 2022.
This is a family business where the owner is present on almost every job. That means you’re not just another number – you’re working with people who stake their reputation on every move we make.
In Fayville’s tight-knit community where word travels fast, we’ve built our business on being the contractor homeowners and businesses call again and again. We understand the local terrain, soil conditions, and regulations that can make or break a heavy equipment move.
Every heavy equipment move starts with understanding exactly what you’re dealing with. We assess your machinery’s weight, dimensions, and any special handling requirements, then evaluate the route from pickup to destination.
Next comes the planning phase. We determine what specialized equipment is needed – whether that’s cranes, forklifts, or custom trailers – and handle all permits and regulatory requirements. You don’t have to worry about paperwork or compliance issues.
On moving day, our team arrives with the right equipment and expertise to safely load, secure, and transport your machinery. We use proven rigging techniques and GPS-tracked transport to ensure your equipment stays protected throughout the journey.
Once we reach the destination, we carefully unload and position your equipment exactly where you need it. Before we leave, we do a final inspection to make sure everything is perfect and you’re completely satisfied.

Our heavy equipment moving services in Fayville, NY cover everything from small machinery relocations to complex industrial equipment transport. We handle excavators, bulldozers, cranes, and specialized manufacturing equipment with equal precision.
What makes the difference in Fayville’s construction market is understanding local conditions. The area’s mix of established properties and new construction means navigating tight spaces, varying soil conditions, and strict municipal requirements. We know which routes work best for oversized loads and which permits you’ll need.
Our service includes professional rigging, secure transport, and careful placement at your destination. We carry full insurance coverage and maintain all necessary licenses for heavy equipment transport in New York. Every move is planned with contingencies in mind, so weather delays or unexpected obstacles don’t derail your timeline.
Whether you’re a contractor moving equipment between job sites or a business relocating machinery, we provide the specialized knowledge and equipment that keeps your valuable assets protected throughout the process.
Heavy equipment moving costs depend on several factors: the size and weight of your machinery, distance traveled, and complexity of the move. Most moves in the Fayville area range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars.
We provide upfront, detailed estimates with no hidden fees. The quote includes all necessary equipment, permits, insurance coverage, and labor. Factors that can affect pricing include special rigging requirements, tight access areas, or moves requiring multiple pieces of specialized transport equipment.
The investment in professional heavy equipment moving typically pays for itself by avoiding damage, downtime, and the liability risks that come with attempting moves without proper expertise and equipment.
Professional heavy equipment movers have specialized equipment that most contractors don’t own – things like hydraulic trailers, heavy-duty cranes, and rigging gear designed for specific weight capacities. We also carry the proper insurance coverage and licensing required for heavy equipment transport.
Attempting to move heavy machinery without the right equipment often results in damage to the equipment, property, or both. Professional movers understand load distribution, securing techniques, and route planning that prevent costly mistakes.
The time savings alone usually justifies the cost. What might take you days to figure out and execute safely, we can complete in hours with the right equipment and experience.
Heavy equipment transport in Fayville, NY typically requires oversize/overweight permits from the New York State Department of Transportation, plus any local municipal permits depending on your route. The specific permits depend on your equipment’s dimensions and weight.
We handle all permit applications and approvals as part of our service. This includes route surveys to identify any restrictions like low bridges, weight-limited roads, or areas requiring special timing for moves.
Getting the wrong permits or missing required approvals can result in significant fines and project delays. Since permit requirements can change based on exact routes and timing, it’s worth having someone who deals with this regularly handle the paperwork.
Most heavy equipment moves in Fayville can be scheduled within 2-3 days for standard moves, though emergency moves can often be accommodated within hours if needed. Complex moves requiring special permits or route planning may need a week or more lead time.
The scheduling depends on permit processing times, equipment availability, and route complexity. Moves during peak construction season (spring through fall) may require more advance notice than winter moves.
We recommend calling as soon as you know you’ll need equipment moved. Even if your timeline is flexible, early planning helps ensure we can accommodate your preferred dates and potentially save on costs by avoiding rush charges.
We carry comprehensive commercial insurance that covers your equipment during transport, including coverage for damage, theft, and liability. Our insurance meets all New York State requirements for commercial heavy equipment transport.
Before any move, we document your equipment’s condition and provide you with certificate of insurance showing coverage limits. This protects both you and us in the unlikely event something goes wrong during transport.
Most customers find our insurance coverage exceeds what they carry on their own equipment policies. We can provide specific coverage details and limits during the estimate process so you know exactly what protection you have.
Limited access moves are actually one of our specialties in the Fayville area. Many properties here have narrow driveways, tight turning radii, or obstacles that make standard transport challenging.
We have smaller specialized trailers and rigging equipment designed for tight spaces. Sometimes this means using multiple pieces of equipment or creative routing, but we can usually find a way to get your machinery where it needs to go.
During our initial assessment, we evaluate access challenges and develop a plan that works within your site’s constraints. This might include temporary removal of obstacles, coordinating with utility companies, or using alternative equipment configurations to make the move possible.
