Being the first one to the jobsite in the early morning feels like you're stepping into the stadium for the big game — that’s every day for me, no matter how big or small the job is.”

A Chat With Jack

Why DEVELON?

What I like about these machines: They're extremely well-built, they're quiet, they're functional and they're well thought out. Parts availability is superior to other brands and a strong reliable dealer network across New England keeps our equipment online and allows us to work across the Northeast with competitive leasing and rental programs that other dealers cannot compete with. And as a brand, DEVELON invests in their customers at a level we have not seen before, allowing us to offer feedback on equipment where our operators feel each machine is custom-tailored to their needs on the job.

Favorite Project

Western Earthworks relied on DEVELON crawler excavators and offroad dump trucks to move 270,000 cubic yards of blasted ledge, which was processed to make road gravel for access roads, erosion stone for storm water features and other aggregate products for footings, drains and conduit trenches.

Best Piece of Advice

Question everything, be okay with what you don’t know and wake up everyday prepared to learn something new.
