Water well drillers
Many Fraser Valley water well drillers retire older truck-mounted rigs when they renew equipment or close the business. They're bought running or not, along with pipe trucks and tooling.

Planning the move
Good to know
- Farm lanes: light culverts and soft fields need planning.

Valley pickups
Rig pickups in the Fraser Valley
Water well rigs and farm-related drilling equipment are common out here.
Gravel pits and quarries
Track drills from pits and quarries come up in the valley. Tell us where on the site the drill sits, the road in and any site rules. Give us a contact who can open the gate.
Outside the bylaw area
Abbotsford, Chilliwack and Mission are in the Fraser Valley Regional District, outside Metro Vancouver, so Bylaw 1329 doesn't apply there. Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows are inside it.
Farm properties
Rigs stored on farms often sit in fields or barns. We pick a dry day if the ground is soft. For a barn, give us the door height and what's in front of the rig.
Long roads
Gravel roads are fine if they're firm. Tell us about bridges, culverts and weight limits on the way in, because a loaded lowbed is heavy.
Tooling
Rods and casing stored on site can go in the same trip. Tell us roughly how much there is and whether there's a loader to help.
