Founded in 1925 by Joseph D. Sheedy, Sheedy Drayage Co. has evolved from a single truck operation focused on hauling goods in San Francisco to one of northern California's premier crane, rigging, and heavy hauling contractors. Initially serving the local economy by transporting hay and grain, the company quickly adapted to the region's industrial needs, especially during the construction of significant landmarks and infrastructure including the Golden Gate Bridge and various hydroelectric plants. Over the decades, Sheedy expanded its operations, acquiring cranes and equipment to meet the growing demands of the San Francisco shipyards and oil refineries during World War II and beyond.
Today, Sheedy Drayage Co. boasts a fleet of over 100 trucks, trailers, and specialized hauling equipment, equipped to handle projects of varying scopes—ranging from intricate rigging of high-rise buildings to heavy transport of large electrical equipment. Their extensive crane rental options include models capable of lifting up to 500 tons, serving both commercial and residential sectors. Committed to safety and efficiency, Sheedy employs a dedicated team of in-house engineers and project managers to ensure each job is executed with the highest standards.
With its long-standing history and strong presence in the Bay Area, Sheedy Drayage Co. continues to play an integral role in the region's construction and development, adapting its offerings to meet evolving economic demands. Known for reliable service, integrity, and swift response, Sheedy remains a cornerstone in the crane and heavy hauling industry, poised for further growth as it expands its capabilities and fleet in the years to come.
