Moving heavy, specialized equipment over short distances, whether it’s a few dozen feet within a plant or several miles between buildings, requires specialized knowledge and expertise. Planning the move and employing the right equipment is essential in making the process efficient.

Riggers are the employees who do the actual work of moving heavy or specialized equipment from one location to another. Riggers can do several different tasks, all of which are a vital part of the relocation process. The initial part of the move requires calculating the size of the load and the best way it should be moved. Staging equipment and lifting the load are the next steps that must be undertaken to start the delivery process. If the equipment must go more than a few hundred feet, it will likely need to be moved by truck. Riggers who drive the trucks that haul the loads have to take into account weight and height limits that will impact the routes they choose. Once the load has been delivered to its final destination, riggers are on hand to lift loads off the trucks and put them in their designated location.
