In 1961 Leland
McCormick started farm tiling with a 301 Buckeye trencher. In 1967 Leland
installed the first corrugated plastic drainage tubing in the state of Iowa on
his father, Keith McCormick's, farm south of Pleasantville, Iowa.
Shortly
after this Leland became the first distributor in Iowa for
ADS (Advanced
Drainage Systems) plastic drainage tubing. The first ADS
plastic tubing was brought in by rail car from Newark,
Delaware. ADS started manufacturing tubing in Malinta, Ohio and it
was then trucked in.
Currently we still install drainage tubing and our tile yard
located at 121 Hwy 92, Pleasantville, Iowa we stock a
complete line of drainage products, septic systems, and
plastic intake risers. We sell 3" thru 60" quality ADS, Hancor, and Prinsco brand products. With the ability to sell the three
major top quality brands of drainage tubing we can offer
contractors the tile of their choice at a competitive price
on direct ship semi-load lots throughout the Midwest.
Over the years we have been in business our customers would
tell us they either they had a tiling machine for sale or
they were looking to buy one. Often we would know of someone
who had one for sale or was looking to buy one and put the
two together.
In
1994 Chris McCormick started buying and selling tiling
machines and tile stringing trailers, as the number of
machines bought, sold or traded, increased customers would
want to trade in a dozer or other construction related
piece. McCormick Equipment then started handling all types
of construction and has sold machines throughout the United
States, Canada, and Mexico. The majority of the equipment
that McCormick Equipment is for sale at any given time, and
is actively being used by us or the company that has
consigned it for us to sell. If you have any questions about
the drainage industry or are looking for a piece of
equipment give us a call we would be glad to help you. |
