Machinery Moving
Our specialized machinery moving service handles industrial equipment relocation from single items to complete facility transfers. With three dedicated rigs and five expert riggers, we ensure safe transport of heavy machinery across Southern California and beyond. Our process includes comprehensive planning, secure loading, and precise delivery positioning for manufacturing equipment, production lines, and industrial tools.
Laboratory Equipment
We specialize in transporting sensitive medical and scientific laboratory equipment with precision handling developed over 20+ years. Our team uses specialized padding and vibration control techniques to protect delicate instruments during transit. This service includes disassembly documentation, secure packaging, and reinstallation verification for research facilities and healthcare providers.
Long Haul Transport
Our long haul transportation service manages equipment relocation across state lines and international borders. We coordinate customs documentation, route planning, and multi-modal transport solutions for industrial clients. The service includes real-time tracking, climate-controlled shipping options, and specialized permits for oversized equipment transport.
Machine Assembly
We provide complete machine assembly and disassembly services as part of relocation projects. Our riggers document equipment configurations before disassembly and recreate optimal setups at destination locations. This service eliminates the need for separate erection teams while ensuring proper reinstallation of complex industrial machinery and production systems.
Custom Crating
Our custom crating service creates protective shipping solutions for sensitive equipment during relocation. We design shock-resistant, water-resistant packaging tailored to each item's dimensions and fragility. This includes wooden crate construction, foam padding systems, and humidity control measures to protect machinery during local or international transport.
