Atlanta Equipment

Atlanta Equipment was established in 1989 to be a low cost provider of high quality equipment. The focus of this was, and continues to be, equipment, trench shields and lasers for construction safety and surveying. We sell to dealers and end users Coast to Coast.

In 2003, Atlanta Equipment was acquired by Road Machinery & Supplies Co. (RMS), a growth oriented heavy construction equipment distribution company established in 1926. Visit www.rmsequipment.com to learn more about this company.

The focus of our business is the sale, rental, and leasing of trench shields and lasers for construction safety and surveying. We sell to dealers and end users coast to coast.. Trench boxes are used to hold back the tons of earth insuring that the trench does not collapse on the workers as it's being excavated. They've been in use since the mid-'70s, but it wasn't until OSHA safety regulations were strictly enforced in the mid-'80s that the market for trench shields really took off.

Both the safety and the survey equipment are becoming essential in today's construction environment. Equipment suppliers include:

In addition to lasers and trench boxes, we offer other construction-related products, such as confined space equipment, pipe plugs, gravel boxes, compaction wheels, lifting attachments, buckets, sewer line testing equipment, much, much more. In fact our standard gravel boxes have performed so well throughout the country that several other suppliers have redesigned their versions! We are capable of servicing and repairing most types of construction laser equipment. All Atlanta Equipment products meet or exceed OSHA standards, are safe and reliable.

In 1998, we moved to a larger location in Fairburn, Georgia. In 2003, Road Machinery & Supplies Co. acquired Atlanta Equipment. This gave us greater opportunities to grow, including access to Road Machinery's large inventory of used equipment. We moved to a larger facility again in 2005 at 8859 Tara Blvd. in Jonesboro.
