Terra Move LLC

Terra Move is a patented process by which underground utilities can be moved up to 20’ horizontally and 10’ vertically with no splicing and no interruption in service. Terra Move can accomplish utility relocations in days rather than weeks and months and can perform the operations at a fraction of the cost of replacement and splicing.
