We’ve been serving Milton and the surrounding Saratoga County area since 1997. We started as a logging operation and evolved into full-service excavation and equipment moving as our community grew.

We handle everything from compact excavators to large bulldozers and specialized construction machinery. Our fleet includes lowboy trailers rated for equipment up to 80,000 pounds and specialized rigging equipment for oversized loads.
Weight and dimensions determine the transport method. Standard excavators, skid steers, and similar equipment move on our lowboy trailers. Larger or unusually shaped machinery may require specialized trailers or disassembly for transport.

Most local equipment moves in Milton are completed within the same day. Loading, transport, and positioning typically take 4-8 hours depending on distance and site conditions.
