There goes another one. 👀

We like seeing equipment in our yard… but we love seeing it leave even more. 😂

How far do you think this one’s traveling?

Forget horsepower. Let’s talk HUMAN horsepower😂💪🏼

We rounded up a few beverages that keep the Nichols crew running and let’s just say… we’ve got some different opinions around here.

☕️ coffee
⚡️ energy drinks
🥤 soda pop
😎 pure stubbornness

What’s keeping you running until quitting time?

Wrong answers will be discussed at the next staff meeting.😂

And more importantly… what are you doing with it?😂

Big iron. Bigger conversations.😎

Our fleet meeting brought the Nichols crew around the table to talk about what’s working, what’s moving, and what’s next.

There’s a lot that goes into making sure we’ve got the right iron for the right jobs.

Speaking of what’s next… what piece of equipment would YOU like to see added to the Nichols fleet? 👀

10/19/2026

a few nuts and bolts, a little coordination, and some heavy lifting.

all in a day’s work around here. 😎

The Nichols crew makes it happen, no matter what.
