Commercial kitchen equipment logistics, end to end
One crew, one point of contact for restaurant equipment shipping and commercial kitchen equipment transport — from the auction gavel to a fully placed line.
Auction Pickup
Won a lot at a restaurant auction? We coordinate on-site pickup, payment release, and removal so you never set foot on the floor.
Equipment Hauling
Walk-ins, ranges, hoods, and reach-ins moved on liftgate and air-ride freight built for heavy, delicate stainless steel.
Domestic & International
Nationwide LTL and full-truckload service plus ocean and air freight with customs brokerage for overseas delivery.
White-Glove Placement
Uncrate, position, and level. Our white-glove crews set your line exactly where the kitchen plan calls for it and hand off to your installers for final connections.
Secure Storage
Climate-controlled, insured warehousing between the auction and your opening date — short or long term.
Crating & Rigging
Custom crates and rigging for oversized or fragile units, engineered to survive the dock and the road.

Built for the weight and the pressure
Restaurant equipment is heavy, awkward, and expensive to replace. Our network is built specifically around the realities of moving commercial kitchens — not general freight.
A nationwide provider network
We are a coast-to-coast network of vetted, insured equipment transporters — so there is a qualified crew near every pickup and every destination.
Insured & bonded
Full-value cargo insurance on every load, so a scratched reach-in never becomes your problem.
On-time, on-record
A 99.6% damage-free rate and appointment-based delivery windows you can build an opening around.
One coordinator
A single dedicated contact from quote to final placement — no call-center roulette.
All-in pricing
Pickup, freight, and white-glove placement quoted up front. No fuel-surcharge surprises after delivery.
The details that keep an opening on schedule
Moving a commercial kitchen is as much about paperwork and timing as it is about the freight. We cover both.
- We meet your installers on site
- Our white-glove crew coordinates directly with your kitchen installers and GC on the ground, so equipment is staged, set in place, and handed off without a gap in the schedule. We deliver and set the equipment in place — your installers make the final utility connections.
- On-day, on-time pickup available
- Need it moved the same day the auction closes or a hard removal deadline? We offer scheduled, appointment-window pickup so you clear the floor on time.
- Additional valuation coverage
- Standard cargo coverage is included on every load, with additional declared-value protection available upon request for high-value or specialty units.
- COI available upon request
- Certificates of Insurance are issued for your venue, landlord, or property manager on request — often required before a dock or freight elevator will let us in.
