Service Area Across Massachusetts
Steel trench boxes offer unmatched strength and stability, especially for deep or wide excavations. While aluminum systems are lighter and easier to move, steel is the preferred choice when working in:
- High-pressure or wet soil environments
- Deep utility or sewer line installations
- Heavy equipment zones
- Long-term municipal infrastructure projects
If you're unsure which box suits your site, our team will help you make the right call based on trench depth, job duration, and soil type.
