You need materials on-site when your crew is ready to work. Not tomorrow. Not when it’s convenient for the trucking company. When you need them.
That’s exactly what you get with our professional material hauling services in Center Cambridge. Josh personally oversees deliveries to make sure your construction materials, heavy equipment, and supplies arrive on schedule. No excuses. No surprises.
Your project timeline matters. When materials show up late, your entire crew sits idle while you’re still paying them. We’ve been handling construction material delivery services since 1997, and we understand that timing isn’t just important—it’s everything.
Emerson Excavating and Trucking started in 1997 as a logging operation before transitioning to full-time excavation and trucking in 2020. Josh runs the day-to-day operations with his son as partner since 2022.
What makes us different from other trucking companies in Center Cambridge? Josh is on almost every job. Not sitting in an office somewhere, but actually making sure your materials get where they need to go safely and on time.
We’re not the biggest trucking company around, and we’re not trying to be. We’re focused on being the most reliable one you’ll work with in Center Cambridge, NY.
First, you tell us what needs to move, where it’s going, and when you need it there. We give you a straight answer about timing and cost—no hidden fees or surprise charges later.
Next, we schedule your delivery around your project timeline, not ours. Josh coordinates directly with your crew to make sure materials arrive when you’re ready to use them. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the actual work.
Finally, we deliver your materials safely and on schedule. Our heavy equipment hauling experts know how to transport everything from construction supplies to machinery without damage. You get updates along the way, and we don’t consider the job done until everything is exactly where you need it.

Our trucking services in Center Cambridge, NY cover everything from small material deliveries to heavy equipment transport. We handle construction materials, excavated soil, gravel, stone, and specialized equipment that other trucking companies won’t touch.
Center Cambridge’s rural terrain and seasonal weather conditions require local knowledge that out-of-town trucking companies just don’t have. We know which routes work best for heavy loads, where to avoid soft ground during mud season, and how to navigate the narrow roads that lead to many job sites in our area.
We’re also expanding our services to include commercial and industrial snow removal for the 2024-2025 winter season. This means year-round reliability for contractors and property managers who need consistent service regardless of weather conditions.
We transport all types of construction materials including gravel, sand, stone, topsoil, and excavated materials. Our heavy equipment hauling services cover excavators, bulldozers, skid steers, and other machinery up to legal weight limits.
We also handle specialized loads like septic tanks, precast concrete, lumber, and building supplies. Josh personally evaluates each load to determine the best transport method and route, especially for oversized or particularly heavy items.
The key is matching the right truck and trailer to your specific materials. We’re not a one-size-fits-all operation—we use the equipment that makes sense for your job.
We primarily serve Center Cambridge and the surrounding Washington County area, but we’ll travel further for the right projects. Most of our regular routes stay within a 50-mile radius, which keeps costs reasonable and allows us to maintain reliable scheduling.
For specialized heavy equipment hauling, we’ll go wherever the job requires. Distance matters less when you’re moving expensive machinery that needs careful handling and proper permits.
The best approach is to call us with your specific pickup and delivery locations. We’ll give you an honest answer about whether we’re the right fit for your haul, and if we’re not, we’ll point you toward someone who is.
Same-day service depends on our current schedule and the type of materials you need moved. For smaller loads and standard construction materials, we can often accommodate rush requests if you call before noon.
Heavy equipment hauling typically requires more advance notice because of permit requirements and route planning. Oversized loads need proper documentation and sometimes escort vehicles, which takes time to arrange properly.
Your best bet for urgent deliveries is to call Josh directly. He’ll tell you exactly what’s possible and what isn’t. We’d rather be honest about timing than promise something we can’t deliver.
The biggest difference is that Josh is personally involved in every job. You’re not dealing with a dispatcher who’s never seen your job site or a driver who’s just following GPS directions to an address.
We know the local roads, soil conditions, and seasonal challenges that affect deliveries in Center Cambridge. When mud season hits or a bridge has weight restrictions, we already know alternate routes that work for heavy loads.
We’re also focused on building long-term relationships rather than just completing individual hauls. When you find a trucking company that consistently shows up on time with materials in good condition, that’s worth keeping around for future projects.
We coordinate directly with your project timeline and other contractors on-site. Josh communicates with your crew leaders to make sure deliveries don’t interfere with ongoing work or create safety issues.
For multi-phase projects, we can stage deliveries so materials arrive exactly when each phase begins. This prevents materials from sitting on-site too long where they might get damaged or create obstacles for other work.
We also work around other deliveries and subcontractors. Construction sites get busy, and good coordination prevents delays and conflicts. That’s part of the service—not just dropping materials and leaving, but making sure the delivery fits into your overall project flow.
Our rates depend on several factors: distance, material type, load size, and timing requirements. We price each job individually rather than using generic rate sheets because every haul has different requirements.
For regular construction materials like gravel or topsoil, we can give you accurate quotes over the phone once we know the specifics. Heavy equipment hauling requires more detailed planning, so those quotes typically need an in-person assessment.
We’re not the cheapest trucking company in Center Cambridge, and we don’t try to be. We focus on reliable service and fair pricing that reflects the actual value of getting your materials delivered safely and on time. Call us for a straight quote with no hidden fees or surprise charges.
