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.

Using a large fleet of trucks to move materials over land is expensive and more labor intensive. Rising fuel costs, labor challenges, maintenance issues, and environmental concerns are just a few of the many challenges presented by moving material by truck.

At West River Conveyors, we will build a custom overland conveyor system tailored to your exact needs. Regardless of your application, our expert engineers will design, construct, and install an overland conveyor system that solves your toughest material moving challenges.
