Municipalities consist of local offices that manage the affairs of a local political unit. These units are usually incorporated for local self government. Municipalities depend on cost effective equipment solutions for safe and efficient operation of their facilities, including small power plants, sewage treatment plants, water wells, water treatment facilities, pumping stations, bus fleets, police vehicle fleets, sanitation truck fleets, fleet garages and transportation maintenance equipment fleets.

Most often used to trim and fit castings, billets, bars, plates, beams and girders, chippers are heavy duty equipment regularly used by metalworking, transportation and construction industries. Chippers are also used for concrete roughing and demolition of abutments, bridge decks and foundations.

Staten Island, also known as the Borough of Richmond, is one of the Five Boroughs of New York City. Hoist capabilities, including purchasing, rental, repair, inspection and certification, are imperative to the continuation and growth of this historic Staten Island industry, specifically Staten Island's unique emphasis on shipbuilding and ship repair.

Over time, nearly all heavy duty equipment requires some form of repair to ensure safe and efficient operation. It is imperative that equipment be repaired by certified experts, experienced with ISO 9001 :2008 certified standards and OSHA regulation.
