Minnesota Hauling Contractors

Hiring a Hauling Contractor in Minnesota

Buildermuse currently lists 10 hauling contractors in Minnesota, averaging 4.7 stars across 286 verified Google reviews. Every firm listed clears the 4.0-star bar, and with ratings this close together, review volume is the better tiebreaker — a 4.6 backed by hundreds of reviews usually beats a 5.0 with a dozen. Most of the crews above operate out of Lakeville, Becker, and Columbus.

Minnesota requires licensing for residential building, remodeling, and roofing contractors. Commercial work does not require a state-level license but may require local licensing. Confirm credentials with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry at (651) 284-5069 before work begins. Licenses renew on an annual cycle (December 31). Expect a $200 state application fee. At a minimum, ask for proof of $300,000 in general liability coverage and active workers' comp.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the Minnesota market sets the floor: construction workers here average $41.60 an hour — about $86,528 a year — across 148,463 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. That puts Minnesota among the pricier construction labor markets in the country, so expect quotes to reflect it.
