Brohez Trucking LLC is an owner-operated, family-run excavation and demolition outfit in Mattoon, Illinois, run by Levi Brohez. Levi walks every job before he quotes it and runs the equipment himself, so the person who priced the work is the one in the seat doing it.
They own their fleet, from a Komatsu PC150LC-6 excavator and a Cat D6N dozer to skid steers and tandem dump trucks, and use it for foundations, barn and house tear-downs, pond builds and cleanouts, field tile and culvert repair, land clearing and rock driveways. Most weeks they are working within an hour of Mattoon, from Decatur and Champaign to Effingham and Terre Haute.
