The Pecan Man by Cassie Dandridge Selleck

I just wanted to take a moment to congratulate my sister Cassie Selleck on her wildly successful first novel, The Pecan Man. Cass has been working for Anderson Crane and Bridge since 2005 and has recently resigned to pursue the passion she has held since we were both children. I am so proud of her and so excited for the career path she is taking that I just cannot do anything but wish her well.

Kenya Johnson will be the new face in our office at 770-558-1074 and will handle all marketing, quotes, contracts and invoices going forward.

So, as we bid Cass farewell, we welcome Kenya and hope you will take a moment to do the same. You can email Cass at Cassie@inspectabridge.com or CassieSelleck@aol.com. And you can welcome Kenya at Kenya@inspectabridge.com.

Praise for our A-62 operator at Anderson Crane and Bridge

 

Thanks for your help. Your operator was great to work with.

Happy New Year!

Carter James Dandridge

 Happy New Year from the newest addition to the Dandridge family!

I always like to take time to wish friends, family, customers, colleagues and business associates a happy and prosperous new year. I take pride in the fact that Anderson Crane and Bridge is a family business in so many ways. For those of you who don’t know, Anderson is my middle name. I was the last of four children born in four years, and my mom wanted to honor the obstetrician who deliver us all. Dr. Anderson was a fine man and I am proud to carry on a tradition of hard work, dedication and family values.

And speaking of family, ours has grown again! My nephew Carter is the greatest thing since sliced bread or high-speed internet. Not to mention that he made my brother a grandpa, and I’m having a LOT of fun with that one.

The business has grown as well, along with our staff. David Carpio joins us as our CFO, running the Norcross office and handling all things financial. David is a great guy and a wonderful addition to our company and we are thrilled to welcome him aboard.

We are adding new units as we speak, and our shop staff is already working on several refurbishing projects for other Hydra owners. Chris Caviness has also joined the crew as Shop Manager and is overseeing both the maintenance on our units and the repair/refurbishing jobs.

Sister Cassie’s novel The Pecan Man is selling like hand-warmers at football games this year. She’s still handling all of our marketing, though, so shoot her an email if you need a quote or have any questions.

Check out our website for details on the rental units we have available and scroll down to see our new Hiram, Georgia shop.

Warm wishes to all…

Customers Appreciate Our Excellent Service

We recently worked with an international engineering firm to complete some major bridge inspections in Chicago. When asked for feedback on our employees, the Project Manager had this to say about our crew of technicians and the Aspen Aerial A-62 Snooper Truck we provided:

Equipment Operators:

E.J.
Knowledgeable and courteous. Great about working lift around objects.  Good
work with truck maintenance and solving small issues, i.e. leaky hydraulic
connection during evening or non-work hours, to proactively address issues
and keep team moving forward.

Rafael:
Very knowledgeable and courteous.  Great working lift around objects.  This
type of lift works better than a platform with tower if team has to move in
congested areas, or curl upward between beams or parallel to skewed bridge
elements.

Cody:
Very knowledgeable and courteous. Older experienced operator perspective.
Everyone looks out for each other on team and works well with support of
lane closures and backup trucks provided by Tollway Maintenance personnel.

In summary: Staff quickly addressed issues if or when they came up.  SUPER
conscious of safety issues and working with computer assisted controls
equipment to minimize potential downtime and get most out of constrained
lane closure schedule locations and availability.

Equipment: Aspen A62 Bucket Snooper Truck: Very, very clean and well
maintained.  Computer controlled operator control pads with battery backup:
always good to keep extra batteries on hand.

We are proud of our crew and the work they do. We always deliver equipment that is clean, serviced and ready to roll. Check us out on our website www.inspectabridge.com

Testimonials

We don’t like to brag, but we sure appreciate it when our customers do! We take pride in our attention to service and our proactive operators whose goal is to help you get your job done quickly and SAFELY. So here are a couple of recent letters we received from our clients.

 

Pat,

 

Thanks for the great service, that your company provided. Doug Adams  is A-1 in knowledge, and reliability, and I enjoyed the chance to meet  Rafael.  He has a great attitude. You are blessed to have two wonderful  employees like these. Look forward to doing business with you in the  future.

and another…

 

Carl was instrumental in us being able to get the bridge over Lake Texoma
inspected within our scheduled time frame.  I feel that he went above and
beyond what would be expected of the hydra platform operator and wanted to
take the time to let you know that we greatly appreciated his efforts.  

The weather was hot and the clearances were very tight for the platform to
be able to reach across the sidewalk and over the parapet.  Carl had to
spend virtually the entire week in the sun to drive the platform with the
remote, rather than being able to pull it with the truck.  During times that
we asked to be stationary under the bridge, he would clear gravel and debris
from the deck ahead so that the platform could travel without getting stuck
or delayed.  This experience left my company, as well as the other two
companies that were present, with a positive impression of your firm that we
will certainly remember as we continue bridge inspections in the future.

Once again, we greatly appreciate that extra effort that Carl put forth to
assist us with finishing the inspection within our schedule.

Sincerely,

Michael D. Dukes, P.E.

Chicago Bridge Inspections

[

On behalf of Anderson Crane and Bridge Technologies, Inc. and our drivers and operators, E.J., Cody and Raphael, I would like to extend our deepest appreciation to Don Childress at AECOM for making our recent Chicago experience a great success.

Anderson Crane and Bridge provides nationwide bare and operated rentals of under bridge access platforms and snooper trucks. We recently completed a contract for operated rental of our Aspen Aerial A-62, providing access to AECOM engineers for the inspection of several bridges in Chicago. Most people don’t consider the depth of work that goes into making America’s bridges safe, but the coordination of work crews, traffic control, equipment rental, bridge inspectors, DOT regulations, safety issues and OSHA regulations is just mind-boggling!

Don Childress at AECOM did an amazing job and went way above and beyond to make sure that OUR crew had all the information we needed to work and stay in Chicago. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience and look forward to working with AECOM in the future.
