J.B. Harris Group
Equipment Processing Centers operations

Equipment Processing Centers.

Receiving, inspections, installations, PDI, storage, and delivery at yards near major US ports.

Between the port and the dealer, equipment lives somewhere. JBH operates secured stockyards in Newnan, GA; Claxton, GA; and Tacoma, WA — fenced, lit, camera-monitored yards with PDI bays on site, wash bays, and wrap stations.

Inbound containers come in, get destuffed, the unit moves to PDI for inspection and any pre-delivery work specified by the OEM. Damaged units go to the side, photographed, claim opened with the carrier. Clean units get washed, wrapped if the OEM specs it, photographed for dealer confirmation, then released for the inbound delivery leg.

The yards aren't just storage — they're a process step. The same operations team that runs heavy haul runs the yards, which means an on-site supervisor knows the difference between a SK1300 that's ready to ship and one that needs another 24 hours of PDI. That's been a multi-year program for several OEMs.

HOW WE WORK

Quote to delivery, one ops team.

  1. 1

    Send the specs

    Equipment, weight, dimensions, origin, destination, and any site constraints. A spec sheet or photo helps — but a phone call works too.

  2. 2

    We engineer the move

    A JBH operations engineer routes it — bridges, restrictions, low clearance — prices permits, picks equipment, and assigns the driver. Quote back in 4 business hours.

  3. 3

    We dispatch and track

    Our truck, our driver, our dispatcher on the BOL. You get one point of contact and status from pickup to signed POD.

WHAT TO EXPECT

What you can count on.

  • Engineer-quoted rates

    Routed by a person, not an algorithm — permits and escorts priced in, not added later.

  • Asset-based capacity

    Our trucks and trailers. We don't broker the hard ones out to a stranger.

  • One ops team

    The dispatcher who quotes your load is the one who runs it — no brokered re-handoffs.

  • Live dispatch, 24/7

    A real agent answers — never voicemail — for the life of the move.

FAQ

EPC / CPC — common questions.

How fast can I get an EPC / CPC quote?

Send the details through the quote form or email quotes@jbharrisgroup.com. We come back with a rate, route, permits, and timing. For urgent moves, call 770-251-8921.

Is JBH asset-based or a broker?

Both. JBH runs 35 company trucks with a full trailer mix out of our Equipment Processing Centers, and a vetted carrier network for everything else. Oversize and heavy moves run on our own authority.

Does JBH handle permits and escorts for epc / cpc?

Yes — permits and pilot-car/escort coordination are handled in-house across the jurisdictions we run, and priced into the quote up front.

What information do you need to start?

Equipment or commodity, weight, overall dimensions, origin and destination, any site constraints (overhead, access, security), and your required pickup window. A spec sheet or photo is helpful but not required.

Got a epc / cpc move in the planning?

Tell dispatch what you're moving and where. Engineer-quoted rate back in hours, not days — route, permits, equipment, and ETA window included.
