Every hour a Chicago production floor sits idle costs money. From distribution and manufacturing plants to job shops, we rig, haul, and set industrial machinery across the Chicago metro — one accountable crew from disconnect to re-level, built to get your line back up on schedule.
Most machinery moves fail in the gaps — the rigger who only lifts, the carrier who only drives, the installer who shows up to a machine that was moved wrong. Across Chicago's heavy manufacturing & the nation's rail hub base, Badass Logistics closes those gaps by running rigging, transport, and reinstallation as one job with one crew.
Presses, generators, compressors, production lines, a single machine between bays or a full plant relocation — we plan it on paper first, move it on air skates and air-ride, and set and level it to spec at the new floor. Oversized loads get permitted and hauled in-house, no hand-off.
Stamping presses, press brakes, shears, and injection molding machines across the Chicago metro.
Generator sets, compressors, switchgear, and plant utilities across the Chicago metro.
VMCs, lathes, and machining centers — see CNC moving across the Chicago metro.
Full lines and multi-machine cells, sequenced around production across the Chicago metro.
Moves around Chicago run the I-55, I-80, I-90 and I-94 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 Illinois 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.
