Three Generations of Excavation Excellence

Back in 1990, my grandpa and dad started this business with a focus on quality trucking services. We’ve always been about doing solid work and building relationships with customers who appreciate that. I grew up around trucks and equipment, learning the business from the ground up.

I got involved officially around 2010, and then after studying construction management at ISU, I started expanding our services beyond what we’d traditionally offered. In 2016, I established Wissel Trucking to build on our family’s reputation while developing new capabilities.

Our biggest source of pleasure is working with people who understand that doing things right the first time saves money and headaches down the road.

The Wissel Approach

At Wissel Trucking, we’ve seen what goes wrong when excavation isn’t done right. That’s why we focus on proper techniques, quality materials, and the small details that make a big difference in how long your project holds up. We take time to understand your property, explain everything clearly, and build solutions that work for the unique conditions here in Central Illinois.

Our approach may be more thorough, but our customers appreciate the difference when they’re not dealing with the same problems year after year.

The Right People And The Right Tools Make All The Difference.

"We've hired Wissel Trucking for multiple projects over the years - from fixing drainage issues around our foundation to completely rebuilding our gravel driveway. The difference in quality compared to other contractors we've used is night and day. Their work simply lasts longer and performs better, especially during heavy rains and freeze-thaw cycles."
