How Is Machinery Moved by Rigging Crews?

Rigging crews follow a comprehensive process to ensure the safe and efficient transport of various types of heavy machinery. Here’s a brief overview of the steps involved:

1. Planning: The rigging process begins when you contact us to discuss your project. We start brainstorming the ideal equipment and methods to move your machinery to ensure everything goes smoothly.
2. Dismantling: Sometimes, we must break a machine down before moving it. In these cases, we expertly disassemble the equipment and label the parts for convenient reassembly.
3. Loading: We connect lifts like cranes to rigging equipment and move the machinery to a transport trailer using proper securing and lift techniques for stable moving.
4. Securing: Using straps or chains, we fasten the machinery to the transport vehicle. We ensure the load will not move or contact other items during its journey.
5. Transport: We use trucks, trailers or other vehicles to move the cargo to a new location. Before and during transport, our rigging crews monitor the load for safety.
6. Unloading: Once we reach the destination, we use the same expert techniques to place the equipment, adapting our methods to suit the new location. We then reassemble the machinery as needed.

We are there for more than just rigging. We offer proper planning before and during each job to keep your loads safe. We also work with you at the end of a move to place equipment in the proper location and assemble it as needed.
