Transformers and generators are dense, top-heavy, and set to tight pad layouts. Across the Casper metro we jack them off the trailer, skid or crane them onto the pad, and set them on the anchors — so the electrical contractor gets the unit where the drawings put it.
Quick answer: Badass Logistics provides transformer & generator rigging in Casper, WY and the surrounding metro. We rig, jack, skid, and set transformers, generator sets, and switchgear onto pads, into vaults, and into electrical rooms — with impact recording where the manufacturer requires it. Our crews work across Casper and nearby Wyoming metros, and moves between facilities run as project freight under the same plan — usually quoted the same day. Call (307) 284-1332.
A large power transformer can weigh more than everything else on the site combined, and it is built to sit still. Tilting it past its limit, dropping it on a corner, or skidding it across a pad that wasn't level can damage the core and windings in ways that only show up at energization. Around Casper, that is why the rigging is planned around the manufacturer's lift points, tilt limits, and impact requirements before it is planned around the crane.
Badass Logistics sets pad-mount and substation transformers, standby and prime generator sets, and switchgear lineups. Many of these jobs don't use a crane at all: the unit is jacked off the trailer onto cribbing and skidded onto the pad. Electrical disconnection, oil handling, and testing stay with your electrical contractor and the manufacturer. How to move a transformer into a building →
Transformer and generator work in Casper follows the grid: HF Sinclair Casper Refinery, Rocky Mountain Power, and Dave Johnston Power Plant, Glenrock. Plants in the metro's oil and gas field services and equipment, petroleum refining, oilfield machine shop and fabrication work, and wellhead and downhole tooling manufacturing add standby power and unit substations on their own schedule.
Casper, WY runs on oilfield & energy, and almost none of it stays put. Same crews and the same transformer and generator rigging standards across the region:
Utilities, plants, campuses, and data centers across Casper all run on equipment that has to land exactly where the drawings put it. The units we rig include:
Pad work here lands in the Platte River Commons industrial park on the site of the former refinery, the East Yellowstone Highway oilfield services and manufacturing corridor east of downtown, and the McMurry Business Park on East Second Street near Interstate 25, where trailer access to the pad decides whether the unit is craned or jacked and skidded. Indoor sets are harder: Casper's buildings are pipe yards and oilfield equipment fabrication shops built for storing tubular goods and welding production tanks, separators and pressure vessels for the oil and gas industry, and a unit headed for an electrical room is planned around every door on the way.
Pad-mount and substation transformers jacked, skidded, or craned onto pads across the Casper metro.
Standby and prime gensets set in yards, enclosures, and on roofs across the Casper metro.
Switchgear lineups and motor control centers moved into electrical rooms across the Casper metro.
Units rigged into basement vaults and indoor substations across the Casper metro.
Plenty of Casper jobs start and finish on one floor. The rest have to travel — to a new building across the metro, a sister plant down I-25, I-80 and I-90, 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.

Most Casper jobs don't stop at one service. The crew that rigs a machine out is the crew that manages the move 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 Casper crew.
