When a machine is too heavy, too tall, or too tight to move safely, Montgomery calls a rigger. Badass Logistics plans and executes precision lifts, machine setting, and heavy moves across the Montgomery metro — from a few hundred pounds to 200,000 lbs and beyond, rigged, moved, and set by one accountable crew.
Quick answer: Badass Logistics provides industrial rigging in Montgomery, AL and the surrounding metro. We handle engineered lifts, machine setting, and heavy moves from a few hundred pounds to 200,000 lbs and beyond, set and leveled to spec. Our crews work across Montgomery and nearby Alabama metros, and moves between facilities run as project freight under the same plan — usually quoted the same day. Call (307) 284-1332.
Montgomery's Hyundai automotive base runs on machines that can't be muscled onto a truck — presses, machining centers, transformers, and production lines that have to come off the floor, through the door, and onto a trailer without a scratch. That's rigging: engineered lifts, air skates and gantries, and a crew that measures every doorway before anything moves.
Badass Logistics rigs it like an engineering problem and runs it like a road crew across Montgomery. We plan the pick, protect the floors, and set the load to spec — and when the load has to leave the building, the same team runs the move and the project freight, so it gets rigged out, delivered, and reset without a hand-off.
Rigging in Montgomery, AL is mostly a building problem, and in this metro the buildings are in the vehicle assembly campus near Interstate 65, the Montgomery CNJ industrial site along US Highway 31, and the future Montgomery Intermodal Container Transfer Facility linked to the Port of Mobile. They are large modern automotive supplier buildings near the Hyundai Motor Manufacturing Alabama plant alongside older single-storey warehouse buildings with modest clear heights in Gunter Industrial Park — column spacing, door height and floor rating decide the gear long before the weight does. The lifts themselves follow the metro's automotive assembly and engine manufacturing, automotive supplier manufacturing, and warehousing and distribution.
Plenty of Montgomery, AL work — Hyundai automotive — moves across state lines before it lands. We run the same industrial rigging crews through these AL and regional markets:
Montgomery's industrial base — Hyundai automotive — runs on equipment that doesn't move like freight. Press pits, heavy die weights, and short retooling windows during model changeovers decide how these moves are planned. Typical rigging jobs for Montgomery customers include:
A Montgomery lift list usually runs to stamping presses, engine machining and assembly lines, robotic weld cells, and automotive supplier injection molding equipment, and each one changes the rig: where it can be picked, what it cannot be set down on, and how much of it has to come apart to clear a doorway.
Setting and leveling machinery onto pads and foundations to spec across the Montgomery metro.
Crane, gantry, and jack-and-slide lifts up to 200,000 lbs and beyond across the Montgomery metro.
Presses, generators, transformers, and production-line machinery across the Montgomery metro.
Skating machines through doorways, up mezzanines, and out of packed floors across the Montgomery metro.
Plenty of Montgomery jobs start and finish on one floor. The rest have to travel — to a new building across the metro, a sister plant down I-65, I-20, I-10 and I-59, or a facility in another state. We don't hand that part off. It runs as project freight inside the same plan: machines crated or prepped on site, loads sequenced to the rig-out, transport through our licensed broker and carrier partners with dedicated capacity for bigger moves, and our crew waiting at the destination to set it.
Not every Montgomery rig finishes on the floor it started on. Served by CSX and Norfolk Southern. Add I-65, I-20, I-10 and I-59 for the road legs and a machine rigged out of a Montgomery plant can leave on a trailer or in a rail car — the rigging plan is built backwards from whichever it is.
