You’re not just moving metal from point A to point B. You’re protecting an investment that keeps your projects profitable and your clients satisfied.
We’ve been handling equipment moves throughout Hartford and Washington County since 1997. What started as a logging operation evolved into full-time excavation and equipment transport when we saw too many contractors getting burned by unreliable service.
Josh oversees every move personally because your equipment represents your livelihood. We understand Hartford’s rocky terrain, seasonal challenges, and the local regulations that can turn a simple transport into a complicated headache if you don’t know what you’re doing.
Three decades of experience means we know which routes work for oversized loads, which permits you’ll need, and how to handle the unexpected conditions that come with moving heavy machinery in upstate New York.
We start with an honest assessment of your equipment and transport needs. You get a detailed quote that covers everything – no hidden fees for permits, no surprise charges for “difficult access,” no extra costs that magically appear after we’ve loaded your equipment.
Before anything moves, we handle permits, coordinate with utilities if needed, and plan the safest route for your specific machinery. Our GPS-guided equipment creates a digital model of the entire transport process, so we know exactly where potential problems might occur before they happen.
During transport, you get updates on progress and timing. When we deliver, your equipment gets unloaded with the same care we used loading it. The job isn’t finished until your machinery is positioned where you need it and ready for work.
