Need reliable heavy machinery & industrial equipment movers in Mississauga, Ontario? Rigging-Busters moves machines and plant equipment for manufacturers in Mississauga, Brampton and across Peel Region, from a single CNC machine to a complete production line.
We specialize in industrial machinery moving, heavy equipment rigging, lifting, erecting, loading and unloading, relocation and transportation. Our machinery movers and riggers handle the whole job with one crew: we rig and skid the machine, load and haul it, then set it in place, level it and install it at the new site.
- Industrial work only: machines, production lines and plant equipment. We don’t move homes, offices or furniture.
- One crew, start to finish: rigging, transport, set-in-place, levelling and millwright installation.
- Quick replies: quotes within 2–4 business hours, and estimates are free.
- Where we work: every part of Mississauga, plus Brampton, Caledon, Etobicoke, Oakville and Milton.

Our crew handles any machine, from small and delicate instruments to large, complex production equipment. Every heavy move starts with a plan: we check the machine’s weight and centre of gravity, its lifting points, the floor it stands on and the way out of your Mississauga building. That tells us which method fits: machinery skates, a hydraulic gantry, jack-and-roll, or a lift by a licensed crane partner.
With the right method and equipment, your machine reaches its new site safely and on schedule, and your building and production plan stay protected.
Estimates are free. Contact us with your project and we will handle the whole machinery move, from planning to set-in-place.

Who We Are: Mississauga Machinery Movers and Riggers
We are industrial movers: heavy-duty machine movers, riggers and erectors working for plants in Mississauga and across Peel Region.
Our machinery relocation specialists move large, heavy machines safely from one site to another for manufacturers, distributors, labs and equipment dealers. We bring the tools, forklifts and trailers each job needs and take on bulky, complex projects from planning to set-in-place.
How We Move Heavy Machinery in Mississauga
A machinery move in Mississauga runs in seven steps:
- Details and photos: make, model, weight and size of each machine, both addresses, access at each end and your dates.
- Site visit if needed: we walk the route from the machine’s footprint through doors and docks, and check floors and lifting points.
- Method, crew and permits: we choose the rigging method and set the schedule. A load over the legal size or weight limits needs an MTO oversize/overweight permit on provincial highways (Ontario asks carriers to apply at least 5 business days ahead), plus City or Peel Region permits for local roads.
- Disconnect: your licensed electricians disconnect and lock out power, and your maintenance team shuts off air and water.
- Rig, lift and load: machinery lifting with rated slings, skates, gantries or jack-and-roll; each machine is skidded out and secured on the trailer.
- Transport: on a trailer matched to the load, with escorts when the permit calls for them.
- Set, level and install: the machine goes onto its new footprint and is levelled for reconnection; our millwrights can install and align it.
Equipment Our Machine Movers Use
- Machinery skates and dollies to roll machines across the shop floor
- Hydraulic gantries to lift machines where there is no overhead crane
- Jack-and-roll systems to raise very heavy machines in stages and roll them into position
- Industrial forklifts and heavy-capacity lift trucks to load, unload and place equipment
- Semi-trucks, flatbeds and trailers matched to each load
- Rated slings, shackles and cribbing for controlled, precise lifts
- Crane lifts through licensed crane partners when a job needs one
Machinery Transport and Permits in Mississauga
For heavy equipment transport, our heavy equipment movers haul oversized loads on trailers matched to each load, and we arrange the permits and escorts. On City of Mississauga roads, a load over the Highway Traffic Act’s size or weight limits needs an excess load moving permit. The City takes at least five business days to process one (fourteen for a superload), and single-trip permits call for at least two private escort vehicles. Peel Region issues its own permit for Regional roads, and Highways 401, 403, 410 and the QEW are covered by the MTO. If your new building isn’t ready yet, we can store the machines until it is.
Millwright Installation and Levelling
Once a machine is on its new footprint, our millwrights level and align it, re-assemble any sections that travelled separately and leave it ready for your electricians to reconnect. Our millwright services also cover new machinery: when a dealer delivers to your site, we unload the machine, move it into position and level it, ready for start-up. Installation-only work, such as a new line from an integrator, is covered on our millwright services and machinery installation in the GTA page.

Industries We Serve in Mississauga
Aerospace, automotive, food and beverage manufacturing, life sciences and logistics are among Mississauga’s key industrial sectors, and we move machinery for all of them: aerospace and automotive parts makers, pharmaceutical and food plants, plastics, packaging and printing operations, metal fabricators and distribution centres, plus the equipment dealers and auction buyers who supply them.
How We Move CNC Machines
Before a CNC machine moves, we lock its axes and secure the spindle; your maintenance team or the OEM saves the control parameters and drains the coolant. We roll the machine out on skates or lift it with a gantry or a heavy-capacity lift truck, secure it on a trailer and drive it to the new site, whether that is across the Northeast employment area or from Etobicoke to Meadowvale. There we set and level it for the OEM technician to recommission. More on CNC machine moving in Mississauga.
Food, Pharmaceutical and Packaging Line Moves
Production lines in Mississauga’s food, pharma and packaging plants move as a planned sequence. We tag and photograph every connection, protect stainless surfaces and guarding, and move the machines in the order the line will be rebuilt. Your licensed electricians disconnect and reconnect power, and your quality team signs off each machine before production restarts. Food and beverage plants can also see food processing equipment movers in Mississauga and Brampton. Relocating the whole facility? See plant and factory relocation in Mississauga.
Before any equipment move, our heavy-duty movers assess your machines and build a transportation plan that keeps downtime to a minimum. Shutting down a plant, or picking up machines bought at auction? See plant closure and equipment removal in the GTA.

How We Estimate Machinery Moving Cost in Mississauga
Every machinery move is estimated individually, after we see the job details or visit the site. The price depends on:
- The machines: weight, dimensions, structure and quantity
- The route: distance and complexity of the skidding route, working space, uneven floors and any stairs
- Method and gear: skates, gantries, jack-and-roll or a crane lift, and how long the heavy-moving gear is needed (crane time is billed with minimum hours)
- Crew size: how many movers, riggers and erectors the job needs
- Extra work: loading and unloading, crating and packing, dismantling and re-assembly, levelling and millwright installation
- Transport: trailer type, distance, permits and escorts, plus any storage or freight between sites
- Timing: your shutdown window and any after-hours work
Ask for rigging, transport and set-in-place priced together in one quote so you can compare movers like for like. For a first idea of cost, try the Heavy Lifting & Moving Calculator.

Machinery Movers in Mississauga: FAQ
Industrial machinery movers are riggers who relocate heavy plant equipment. They plan the lift, rig and skid each machine out of the building, load and haul it, then set it in place and level it at the new site. In Mississauga, our crew does all of this for factories, labs and warehouses, and our millwrights can install the equipment after the move.
A heavy machine that tips or drops can injure people, crack the floor and stop production for weeks. Professional movers start with the weight, centre of gravity and lifting points, choose the right method and use rated rigging. When you compare machinery moving companies in Mississauga, ask each one for a site visit, a written plan and one quote covering rigging, transport and set-in-place.
Machinery riggers secure and move heavy loads with slings, shackles, skates, gantries and jacks. They work out how a machine can be lifted safely, then move it into or out of position. If you need a machine lifted, turned or repositioned inside your Mississauga plant without trucking, see our industrial rigging services in Mississauga.
Every job is quoted individually. The price depends on the weight and size of each machine, access at both ends, the rigging method, the distance, permits and escorts, and timing. Moving several machines in one trip and sending complete details up front both help keep the cost down. For a rough range, use our Heavy Lifting and Moving Calculator.
Only when the load is over the legal size or weight limits. Then the City of Mississauga issues an excess load moving permit for City roads, which takes at least five business days, or fourteen for a superload. Peel Region issues its own permit for Regional roads, and the MTO covers Highways 401, 403, 410 and the QEW. We apply for the permits and arrange the escorts.
We lock the axes and secure the spindle while your team or the OEM saves the control parameters and drains the coolant. The machine is rolled out on skates or lifted with a gantry or heavy-capacity lift truck, secured on a trailer and driven over. In Mississauga we set and level it on its new footprint, ready for the OEM technician to recommission.
Yes. Food, pharmaceutical and packaging lines are common in Mississauga plants. We tag and photograph every connection, protect stainless surfaces and guarding, and move the machines in the order the line will be rebuilt. Your licensed electricians reconnect power and your quality team signs off the equipment. For a whole facility, see plant and factory relocation in Mississauga.
Yes. Plant auctions usually give buyers a short removal window, so send us the lot numbers, the pick-up dates and where each machine is going. We rig the machines out, load them onto our trailers or your carrier’s truck, and can store them if the destination isn’t ready. See plant closure and equipment removal in the GTA.
All of Mississauga, from Meadowvale, Streetsville and Churchill Meadows to Malton and the employment areas around Toronto Pearson, and south to Port Credit and Clarkson. We also cover Brampton and Caledon in Peel Region, Etobicoke and the rest of Toronto, Oakville, Milton and Halton Hills, and take machinery moves on to Hamilton and across southern Ontario.
No. We move industrial machinery and plant equipment only, such as CNC machines, presses, production lines and transformers. For a home, office or furniture move in Mississauga, please call a residential or commercial moving company. We also don’t rent out cranes or forklifts. If you are moving a machine, a line or a whole plant, our crew is the one to call.
