Plant relocation utilizes the full extent of Guy M. Turner’s specialized turnkey capabilities.

We can completely disconnect and dismantle your present plant and transport it cross-country, or locally—essentially, wherever it needs to go. At the new location, we can offload and install the machinery; form and pour special foundations or pits; set, align, and level the machinery; and perform the electrical and instrumentation control work involved, as well as all phases of process piping. This turnkey ability simplifies scheduling of the installation process, as well as simplifying and improving communication with the customer.

Turnkey relocation is better controlled and coordinated—and more cost-effective.

Time spent waiting for equipment to show up at the dock or waiting for other contractors to complete their responsibilities is virtually eliminated. Often, one multi-craft crew can replace a number of crews with singular crafts.

We have the experience to provide all of the necessary trades for your relocation.

These include the electrical disconnect; the piping disconnect; match marking and disassembly of the equipment/machinery as needed; the relocation; the transportation; the installation and re-assembly of the equipment; the utility reconnect and the electrical reconnect. Finally, we also have an in-house heavy/specialized transportation department that enables us to have total turnkey responsibility.

Our turnkey solution allows you to stay focused on your business.

Companies that perform only part of the relocation process risk inefficiency and error when they turn to another firm for heavy machinery moving. Guy M. Turner does it all. Our in-house heavy transportation department has the equipment, the talent and the experience to safely pull off the whole operation from start to finish—as we have proved over decades of successful projects.
