About Us
PBC began offering trans-loading services along the Mississippi River system in 1985. We had one road-mobile unit and three employees. We did it all. We learned a great deal about customer service and reliability. Since our founding, we’ve built a strong portfolio of offerings including turnkey services, parts and services for customer-owned pneumatic unloaders, and project management specializing in refurbishment of pneumatic unloaders as well as troubleshooting and preventative maintenance program offerings. Great service starts with having the most experienced pneumatics technicians and operators in the business. We have over 100 years of combined pneumatics systems experience. We are experts in our field, and our clients rely on us to solve their bulk trans-loading service issues in real-time.
