Light Construction

Your edge is compact, proven equipment

Whether your light construction jobs entail excavating, landscaping, foundation work, or snow removal, you know how indispensable compact construction equipment has become on every site, and the importance of having flexible choices that meet all your construction and utility needs. You want compact excavators, track loaders, and wheel loaders with proven strengths in toughness, versatility, performance, and flexibility — perfect to suit the varying demands of your job site.

Site to site with a light trailer

Investing in compact equipment gives you the edge in several ways. For example, you can have multiple productive machines for the cost of a single loader, allowing you to work in more places at once. To move from site to site all you need is a light trailer. And once on site, with our wide range of attachments you can complete more tasks.

That’s why SMS Equipment chose to partner with Takeuchi as their authorized dealer for Canada and Alaska.
