With its team of engineers and project managers, Lockwood can provide you with a single source for your transportation needs.  Lockwood's team of professionals average over 25 years of field operations experience.  Lockwood is not a broker. Our managers direct your entire project.

When your project requires the complex tasks of obtaining permits, insurance issues, coordinating the many types of transportation services, to complex rigging and handling procedures, then your next call should be to Lockwood Brothers, Inc.
