Large Excavations
Shilson Excavation & Trucking Ltd.

       Large excavations have become a niche for us over the years as there are few company's that own as many large bulldozers. We have constructed many large retention water reservoirs for irrigation or recycling water purposes, some of which are 40 feet below ground level with berms holding water 17 feet above ground level over a ten acre area.
Whether your design is larger or smaller, we can handle it for you from start to finish, design included if required.
We have a variety of services and machines to offer in order to best complete your large excavation projects :
  • 4 excavators, all equipped with laser grade assistance and capable of being switched over to land clearing cutter heads and brush shredders over night. One of the excavators is a long reach with 55ft of reach for the extreme applications.
  • 5 bulldozers, four of them D-8's for the large excavations and a smaller trim dozer for the final grades. All of these laser equipped as well as root and brush rake ready for land clearing.
  • An assortment of tri-axle dumps, dump trailers and on site trucks for the rough going. Also backhoes, loader and a custom heavy equipment floating service.
  • Our most recent addition is a new screening plant with a shredding device to process topsoil, sand, and aggregate mixes.
"We would like to thank all the previous and current customers for working with us along the way and are looking forward to meeting our future customers."
