In 1984, we started our Equipment Moving Business with a 1980 Ford F-150 truck and a monorail trailer. By 1986, we were ready to hire our first employee and while still pulling a monorail trailer, upgraded to a Ford F-250.
From 1986 through 1992 we continued our educations and continued to build Walker Brothers on the side. By 1992, we had purchased first “big” truck, a Kenworth K-100 Diesel Cabover. Then, in 1994 we purchased three Freightliners. We expanded our business by beginning the movement of equipment for new manufacturers including Fadal, Haas, Mori Seiki and Mazak. We increased to five employees.
By 1996, we had added an additional two trucks, increasing the total to five, purchased an 11,000 square-foot building and expanded to eight employees. Between 1997 and 2000, we added another five trucks, increasing the total to 10, purchased a 70,000 square-foot building and expanded to 15 employees.
In 2001, we added a sales team and expanded to 20 employees.
During the years 2002 to 2004, we continued strong growth. By adding trucks, trailers and specialized forklifts and doubling our employee base to 40, we incresed our ability to acquire large capacity contracts. A 34,000 square-foot facility at Mira Loma was added.
In 2005, moving capacity was again dramatically increased from 60 tons to 500 tons. By 2008, Walker Brothers has become THE choice in Equipment moving for the Southwest U.S. Purchasing an additional three Freightliners, we now have 27 trucks, trailers and forklifts and 50 employees anxious to meet your moving needs.
