FAQs

How do I schedule a service and get a quote?2025-08-30T22:06:31-06:00

Give us a call or send us a message with your project details. We’ll schedule a site visit, assess your needs, and provide a detailed estimate. Once approved, we lock in your move date and handle the logistics from start to finish.

What geographic areas do you serve?2025-08-30T22:06:03-06:00

We’re based in Houston but serve clients across Texas and nationwide. Whether you’re moving a single machine across town or relocating an entire plant across state lines, we have the logistics and partnerships to handle it.

What is your typical job turnaround?2025-08-30T22:05:42-06:00

Small, single-machine moves can be completed in a day, while larger, multi-machine relocations may take several days to a week. Once we assess your project, we’ll give you a realistic timeline and stick to it.

How do you determine relocation costs?2025-08-30T22:05:17-06:00

Pricing is based on the size and weight of your equipment, the distance of the move, rigging complexity, permits, manpower, and any special handling required. We provide clear, upfront quotes so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Do you offer storage options for machinery?2025-08-30T22:04:55-06:00

Yes. We maintain secure storage facilities where we can hold equipment short-term between moves or long-term until your site is ready. Both indoor and outdoor options are available, with easy access for transport when you’re ready.

Do you design custom solutions for tight-fit installations?2025-08-30T22:04:22-06:00

Absolutely. Many of our projects involve placing machines into areas with very limited overhead clearance or narrow access. We’ve developed creative solutions—using specialty dollies, air skates, and precision rigging systems—to position equipment exactly where you need it.

How do you guarantee safe heavy lifting?2025-08-30T22:03:57-06:00

We follow strict OSHA standards, run pre-lift safety meetings, and use only certified rigging equipment. Our crew is highly trained and experienced with complex lifts, and every move is engineered to minimize risk. Safety is non-negotiable—for our people, your equipment, and your facility.

Can you accommodate emergency relocations?2025-08-30T22:03:35-06:00

Yes. We know downtime costs money, so when a move can’t wait, our team can mobilize quickly for emergency relocations. Even under tight timelines, we never cut corners on safety or planning—your equipment will be relocated quickly and correctly.

What does your rigging process look like?2025-08-30T22:03:13-06:00

Every job starts with a site walk and a detailed plan. We evaluate access points, floor loads, equipment specs, and safety requirements before mobilizing. From there, we bring in the right combination of cranes, forklifts, gantries, and custom rigging gear to execute the move with precision and efficiency.

What types of machinery can GM Machinery Movers handle?2025-08-30T22:02:46-06:00

We move everything from individual CNC machines and press brakes to entire production lines and oversized industrial components. If it’s heavy, complex, or high-value, our team has the rigging expertise and specialized equipment to get it safely from point A to point B.
