Local pickups
Excavator pickups in Richmond and Delta
Farms, industrial yards and soft ground are common here.
Industrial yards
Delta's industrial areas have many contractor yards. Tilbury and Annacis Island are common pickup areas.
Soft ground
Much of the land here is low and wet. We pick a dry day if the machine sits in a field. Tell us how far the machine sits from firm ground.
Ditches
Farm properties often have deep ditches along the road. Tell us where a lowbed can park. A lowbed parked on a soft shoulder can slide, so we'd rather know first.
Bylaw 1329
Both are inside Metro Vancouver, but machines used only for farming are exempt. Machines used for construction or landscaping aren't exempt.
Several machines
Groups can be quoted together. We can price them together and move them over a few days.
Tsawwassen and Ladner
Tsawwassen and Ladner are in our area. We pick a dry day where we can, because farm ground there stays soft.
Drainage machines
Machines used for farm ditching are often complete but worn, and they're bought running or not. Tell us whether the machine is still on the ditch bank and how close a truck can get.
Annacis Island
Industrial yards on Annacis Island are straightforward pickups. Tell us the yard's gate hours and who to call on site.
