Industrial Rigging

When it's too heavy, too tight, or too expensive to get wrong, you call a rigger. We plan every lift like an engineering problem and execute it like a road crew — machinery moving, equipment setting, and precision heavy lifts done right the first time. From a few hundred pounds to 200,000 lbs and beyond — single machines, full production lines, and complete facility moves.

Quick answer: Industrial rigging is the planning and execution of lifting, moving, and setting heavy machinery — often into tight or elevated spaces. Badass Logistics rigs single machines to full production lines nationwide, from a few hundred pounds to 200,000 lbs and beyond, and can haul and reset them under one point of contact.

Heavy machinery moving, handled end to end

Every hour a production line sits idle costs you money — so every move starts with a documented plan and ends on schedule. Badass Logistics rigs, lifts, and sets industrial equipment of nearly any size. Whether you're relocating a single CNC machine across the shop or moving an entire production line to a new facility, our crews bring the gear and the plan to do it safely — without tearing up your floors, your schedule, or your budget.

And because we run heavy haul transport in-house and haul through specialized carriers we have vetted, your rigging job doesn't stop at the loading dock. We can rig it, haul it, and set it at the destination — one team, one point of contact, one accountable crew.

What we rig

machinery moving

Equipment Relocation

Move single machines or full lines within a plant or across the country.

precision lifts

Crane & Gantry Lifts

Hydraulic gantries, boom trucks, and carry-deck cranes for planned, documented lifts.

millwright

Install & Set

Level, anchor, and align machinery to spec at the destination.

jacking & skidding

Jack & Skate

Hydraulic toe jacks, air skates, and roller dollies for tight, low-clearance moves.

plant relocation

Plant Moves

Full facility relocations — disconnect, transport, reinstall.

storage & staging

Rig & Stage

Equipment arriving before the floor is ready? We receive, secure, and store it — then deliver and set on your schedule.

MRI & medical equipment rigging

Some loads can't just be muscled into place. MRI scanners, CT machines, and other medical and lab equipment are heavy, fragile, and ruthlessly sensitive to shock and tilt. We rig them with the care they demand — and the engineering to back it up.

  • MRI & CT scanner installation, relocation & removal
  • Tilt- and shock-sensitive handling with monitored lifts
  • Tight-access moves: doorways, elevators, rooftop & crane-in
  • Hospital, clinic, and lab equipment of all sizes
  • Coordinated with our heavy haul team for transport door to door

Safe, planned, documented

Every lift runs on a written plan — dimensions, load ratings, rigging geometry, equipment selection, and sequence settled before anyone touches the load. Our crews work to OSHA rigging and signaling requirements, every piece of rigging hardware is load-rated and inspected before the lift, and floor loading gets checked along the entire path of travel, not just under the pick. No improvised rigging, no cut corners.

Industries we serve

Manufacturing (CNC, stamping presses, injection molding) · Healthcare (MRI, CT, imaging equipment) · Energy (generators, transformers, turbines) · Data centers (UPS systems, cooling plants) · Construction (precast, structural steel) · Food & beverage (processing and filling lines) · Aerospace (test equipment, machining centers). Need it moved across the country instead of across the plant? That's our machinery moving and heavy haul teams, same roof.

Our rigging process

  1. Site & load assessmentDimensions, weights, clearances, floor loading, and access — measured, not guessed.
  2. Documented lift planOur crew specs the equipment, rigging, and sequence for a safe, efficient move.
  3. Permits & safetyRequired permits, lockout/tagout coordination, and a documented safety plan.
  4. ExecutionOur crew rigs, lifts, and moves the load on schedule.
  5. Set, level & sign-offEquipment placed, leveled, and anchored to spec — then we walk it with you.

Rigging FAQ

What is industrial rigging?
It's the planning and physical work of lifting, moving, and setting heavy machinery — using cranes, jacks, skates, gantries, and slings to relocate loads safely and precisely.
How heavy of a load can you handle?
From a single pallet to presses and machinery over 200,000 lbs. Every lift is matched to load-rated rigging and the right equipment for the weight and dimensions.
Do you do full plant relocations?
Yes — single machines, full production lines, or entire facilities, including disconnect, transport, and reinstallation.
Do you cover my area?
We operate from 88 locations nationwide and cover all 50 states. See locations →
