Detroit's automotive and tool-and-die shops run on CNC — and their tolerances don't get a day off. We move VMCs, HMCs, lathes, and full machine shops across the Detroit metro, lifted from the OEM's points, hauled on air-ride, and re-leveled to spec so the spindle cuts true the morning you power back up.

Detroit's industrial base — automotive stamping, tool-and-die, Tier-1/2 suppliers — runs on CNC. Machining centers, lathes, grinders, and the job shops that feed them count on precision, and when one of those machines has to move it can't be muscled like a pallet. It's an instrument that holds ten-thousandths, and it has to come back online holding them.
That's the job Badass Logistics is built for in Detroit. We pull the manufacturer's lift and jacking data before a wrench turns, protect the ways, lock the axes and spindle, and move on air skates and air-ride — then set, level, and square the machine to spec. Because we run rigging and heavy haul in-house, an oversized machining center gets moved and permitted without a hand-off.

Moves around Detroit run the I-75, I-94 and I-96 corridors that knit the metro's industrial belt together. A load that's legal-dimension just gets hauled; anything over height, width, or weight has to be legal on every mile. We handle the Michigan DOT oversize/overweight permitting, route survey, clearance checks, and any escorts as part of the job — so the move reaches its new floor on a compliant route the first time.
Working throughout Detroit, MI and the surrounding metro — backed by a nationwide network of 88 locations when a move crosses state lines.

Most Detroit jobs don't stop at one service. The crew that rigs a machine is the crew that hauls it and sets it back down — so you're dealing with one company from the disconnect to the re-level, not three subcontractors pointing at each other.
Machine has to come off the floor, through the door, or onto a pad before it travels? That's the rigging side of the same Detroit crew.
Detroit riggers →Once it's rigged and loaded, an over-dimension load still needs permits, a routed corridor, and escorts out of Detroit. We haul it in-house — no hand-off.
