New Mexico Hauling Contractors

Hiring a Hauling Contractor in New Mexico

Buildermuse currently lists 5 hauling contractors in New Mexico, averaging 4.6 stars across 89 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 Albuquerque, Deming, and Malaga.

New Mexico requires licensing for all construction work. The Construction Industries Division oversees all trades. Licenses are classified by type and scope of work. Confirm credentials with the New Mexico Regulation and Licensing Department — Construction Industries Division at (505) 476-4700 before work begins. Licenses renew on an annual cycle (license issue date). Expect a $300 state application fee. At a minimum, ask for proof of $500,000 in general liability coverage and active workers' comp.

Labor is the biggest line item on most bids, and the New Mexico market sets the floor: construction workers here average $32.67 an hour — about $67,964 a year — across 54,606 workers statewide, per Bureau of Labor Statistics data. Use that figure as a sanity check when comparing quotes — a bid priced far below market labor rates usually means subcontracted or uninsured crews.
