Des Smith Rigging has been in the heavy engineering business of “machine moving” for 25 years. With his one truck entry into this sector of business, the company now stands alongside the other major role players… BUT, it is with cutting-edge advantage of 21st century Information Technology, Project Management Service, and with Des Smith Engineering cc. commissioned in 1998.  Our growth, professionalism and personal service to clients, big and small, is the mark of our independent family owned business, experienced management and reliable staff.

You name it! We’ve moved it! From 200 ton Railway line planers to Aulette helicopters and more…

The expertise to get every job done efficiently and safely, sometimes means working odd and late hours, weekends and holidays A diverse fleet of vehicles for every job. If it doesn’t exist, we’ll tailor design something to accommodate the circumstance.
