Certified Rigger-NCCCO Titusville in Titusville, Florida at Sims HD Heavy Moving Solutions

About Sims HD Heavy Moving Solutions

Who We Are SimsHD is a Tampa, Florida-based heavy hauling, rigging, and construction hoist company. We share a family legacy and a name with Sims Crane & Equipment, but SimsHD is a separate business — our own team, our own equipment, and our own focus: transporting, lifting, and placing the heavy, high-value equipment that keeps Florida’s industries moving. From hauling oversized industrial machinery across the state to rigging a delicate piece of equipment into a tight space, our crews specialize in the jobs that demand precision as much as horsepower. Operating out of our Tampa headquarters, SimsHD works on projects throughout Florida — and we’re growing.

We are expanding and hiring a full team to support our work and customers on the Spacecoast.
