Site Work & Construction

Precision Earthwork for Municipal & Commercial Projects

Munson Earth Moving has shaped the landscape of Vermont for decades. We combine a massive fleet of heavy iron with engineering-grade precision to handle complex site work for municipalities, developers, and general contractors.

We know Vermont soil. Whether we are digging through the clay of the Champlain Valley or the glacial till of the Green Mountains, we use the right techniques to ensure structural stability and proper drainage.

Our Construction Capabilities

Act 250 Compliant Site Preparation

Navigating Vermont’s development regulations requires more than just digging. We specialize in Act 250 compliant site work, including the installation of silt fences, retention ponds, and advanced erosion control measures that protect our local waterways.

Municipal Infrastructure & Utilities

We are a trusted partner for Vermont towns, handling water main installations, sewer line trenching, and culvert replacements. Our team is experienced in working within the public right-of-way and coordinating with town engineers.

Commercial Grading & Road Building

From rough grading to final sub-base preparation for paving, we build roads that last. We understand how the freeze-thaw cycle affects pavement, and we build deep, stable bases to minimize frost heaves and mud season damage.

Construction Management & Safety

How do you handle project estimating and bidding?

We use advanced estimating software to provide accurate, transparent bids. For municipal RFPs, we review all engineering specs to ensure our proposal covers all Act 250 and environmental requirements, minimizing change orders later in the project.

What is your safety record?

Safety is our heritage—”Watch Every Child” is written on our trucks for a reason. We maintain a strict safety program compliant with OSHA standards. Our crews participate in regular toolbox talks and safety training, which is critical for working in active school zones or busy commercial districts.

Do you handle the permitting process?

While the project owner or engineer typically secures the primary permits, we provide full support in executing the work to meet those permit conditions. We are experts in Act 250 compliance and work closely with state inspectors to ensure site inspections pass without issue.
