Overland conveyors for moving sand and gravel, aggregate, rock, dirt, and overburden are essential for decreasing spills, noise, and dust levels. An above-ground conveyor can help your operation reduce costs while increasing productivity.

“I have had excellent success with everything I have purchased from West River. The service is great! I have called after hours and received the same top-notch service. The pulleys that I bought have been top-quality and are doing very well. I recently had some alignment work done on our slope belt, with the same high quality workmanship. I would recommend West River to anyone needing gearboxes, pulleys, alignment, or other conveyor components.”
