May Heavy Equipment Reaches Milestone Anniversary

By Giles Lambertson CEG CORRESPONDENT

Like a tandem compactor, May Heavy Equipment Company is on a roll. Infused with additional capital, energized by new product lines and firmly established in key markets in the Carolinas, the company is smoothing the way for future expansion. In its 20th year, the company is expanding its presence in North and South Carolina, eyeing territories beyond the two states and generally growing its brand as a dealer and equipment source. *** When Jacob May returned home from college in 1997, he wanted to enroll in law school and eventually become an FBI agent. His father, Bert May, had another idea: help sell 70 pieces of used heavy equipment consigned to him by a dealer.

His father had been dealing in heavy equipment since 1973, the year before Jacob was born, and the equipment dealer had confidence the Mays could move the machines.

And they did. “The dealer respected Dad and trusted us,” May said. “We sold The company built a facility in Lexington, N.C., to offer its customers the best every one of those machines and started service possible. (L-R) are Jacob May, president of May Heavy Equipment, hiring.”

Bert May and Kerry Vickar, chairman and CEO, May Heavy Equipment.

Just that quick, May Heavy Equipment was born. The ensuing two decades of May Heavy Equipment history have been interesting, as early Renting was not the default option for contractors at the turn of years of a new enterprise often are. The company survived the the century, but the recessions began to erode that mindset.

“Twenty years ago, people didn’t like to rent,” May said. “They recession of 2001 to ’03 only to be hit by the economic collapse didn’t like to pay that money and not own the machine. But when of 2007 to ’08.

“I’ve had major lows and major highs,” acknowledged May, the recession hit, rental is what kept us in business.” now president of the firm. In the beginning, the firm couldn’t *** even find a building because the textile industry dominated commercial real estate. During the first downturn, the company’s Kerry Vickar is Canadian-born but Carolina-savvy. He moved rental equipment was young and attractive to rental customers, but it had lost some appeal when the second downturn arrived. to Charlotte in 1991 as a company executive, founded and eventually sold another company there, and co-founded an investment “It was tough.”

What the company had going for it was its emphasis on rental. and private equity firm. A quarter century after arriving in

Charlotte, Vickar has established himself as an entrepreneurial expatriate.

He had an opportunity to invest in May Heavy Equipment in 2010, when he first examined the company and liked what he saw. “But I didn’t think the overall industry was returning soon, so I moved on.” Two years later, he again was scouting opportunities and remembered May Heavy Equipment. Because he believed in the people involved with the business, this time Vickar did his due diligence and bought in.

“May had been a very successful rental business, but I was only interested if we could turn it into a dealership model,” he said. “We would continue to rent equipment, and turn around traded-in equipment, that’s a part of moving iron. But it only made sense if we could become a certified dealer to give us new equipment and add additional revenue streams, including parts, service and warranty.”

Vickar stresses that the company was in a strong position even though it was struggling. “It was a

good company, with good customers and a management team I believed in, young, smart and with a lot of experience. They just had been overwhelmed by the recession in 2008.”

After subsequent successful talks with major heavy equipment manufacturers — Terex, Hyundai, Kawasaki, and Sakai — the new chapter in the company story began in July 2013. Product lines added since are Bomag, Gehl, Bell, LayMor, SANY, NorAm, and Link-Belt excavators. The company has expanded to five locations — a sixth is in the works — and tripled the size of its employee ranks.

The irony is that the deep recession contributed to this success.

“If the financial world hadn’t changed, the opportunities wouldn’t have been there. These manufacturers of quality heavy equipment already would have been represented,” Vickar said.

“There’s usually a silver lining in everything” So in 2013 as CEO of a construction equipment company, Vickar quickly found himself writing a check every time he turned around, including for such expenses as a new fleet of service trucks. He had expected as much.

“I knew we had a management team made up of good, young, solid, professional people,” he said. “They were even better than I thought they were coming in. They just needed an opportunity

to work within a company structure that was properly capitalized.

I understood business and they understood this business. I took on some management responsibilities and let them run the business, and off we went.”

The other critical ingredient was that old customers gave the reorganized company a chance.

“It was incredibly important for them to believe in the company and to give us an opportunity to show them the new May Heavy Equipment,” Vickar said. “For years, they had rented. Now we were coming out with new Hyundai, Kawasaki and Terex products. Were they going to let us show them that the new equipment would work just as well? They gave us that opportunity and we go to work every day to look after our customers.” *** Of the company’s five locations, the newest is a headquarters facility just opened this summer in Lexington, N.C., in the center of the state. The new property has 12 service bays, twice as many as before. A full parts department was added along with an expanded shipping and receiving department and a corporate see page 12

wing large enough to accommodate a growing firm.

The company’s South Carolina locations are in Columbia, the state’s second-largest city, and Piedmont, in the state’s Upcountry between Atlanta and Charlotte. The third facility is in Summerville on the outskirts of Charleston in the coastal low country bordering the Atlantic. A sixth company location is being established in the Rock Hill, S.C., — Charlotte, N.C., area that straddles the state line.

The busiest facility is in Clayton, just south of Raleigh. May Heavy Equipment gained its significant presence in the capital city by acquiring Tar Heel Machinery, which Scott Woody opened a decade ago. Woody now is May’s senior sales coordinator and a partner in the company.

“We probably have the largest articulated haul truck fleet in either state, almost 60 articulated dump trucks, and we have almost twice as many excavators,” Woody said. “While rentals are a major transaction at the Clayton facility,” he said, “our ‘rental’ fleet is not truly dedicated as such. With a very extensive range of new, slightly used, and used heavy dirt moving, heavy highway, compact asphalt, and specialty equipment in our fleet, we have a lot to offer our customers wanting great quality, no hour to low-hour, well-maintained equipment at a various range of prices to meet their specific needs and budgets.”

Woody is energized by the company’s goal of continual growth in the Carolinas.

“We have really “grown into ourselves” as an independent dealer over the last several years. To continue to grow and be successful and achieve our goal of being number one in the lines we represent, our sales staff, service technicians and administrators are continually going through manufacturer training in whatever state they might be called, to keep up with continual changes in technology on these units as anyone in this industry will tell you — never slows down. Fortunately, we have great relationships with our manufacturers and we are proud to represent each of them. They strive, just as we do, to be the best in their respective market segments as well. Success is contagious and it takes good partnerships to grow in our industry as in any other.

Woody said after the merger of Tar Heel and May in 2015, everyone stepped up and “we were able to promote talent to several key positions within the organization and add an incredible group of people from the outside to spur our progress. This has allowed us to assign specific tasks to very qualified people.”

Vickar voiced the same about the overall operation.

“Everybody has a role to play in the company. We have a very good group of people with diverse skill sets. Everyone does what they do well.”

The Columbia, S.C., branch is located at 1330 Buckner Rd., just off I-20.

May Heavy Equipment’s inventory at the Columbia, S.C., branch includes Bell articulated trucks, Hyundai excavators and wheel loaders, Bomag paving products, KCM wheel loaders, Sakai paving products, Link-Belt excavators, Terex trucks, Sany excavators and other quality brands.

May Heavy Equipment is the authorized dealer of Noram motorgraders in South Carolina.

The can-do spirit is evident through the ranks. Accounting Manager Amy Thomas, a 14-year employee, calls the company “a great place to work. I feel like we have a real good team. We work really well together. We’re on the same page.”

Danny Lampley, a shop mechanic for 18 of the company’s 20 years, has seen lots of change, recalling when the company had just six service bays. He said what hasn’t changed is the feeling of being part of a family. “I’ve worked for Jacob and for Bert for many years. From the beginning, they welcomed me right into the family.”

May Heavy Equipment’s Columbia, S.C., team.

*** Good companies are distinguished from bad ones by superior service. Steven Gawthrop, May’s director of service, keeps that in mind as he tracks the work of 35 technicians and four service managers. The company has 38 shop bays spread across the six locations, compared to just 12 bays four years ago. In addition, 17 service trucks are constantly on the go.

Gawthrop makes sure the trucks not only respond promptly — what he calls “the May way” — but that they go extra miles if necessary to do so. He cites the example of a concrete company that needed a service call. “The Clayton facility couldn’t get there, so we took one from our Lexington facility. He’s a good customer so we charged him as if the truck came from the closest facility.”

The customer response to such policies has been positive.

“We are growing daily and it’s great to be a part of the growth, to see it take off,” said Gawthrop, “When I was hired, I was told I could retire from here. I believe every word.”

Will Matthews (L), parts specialist and Phillip Hilton, branch manager put together a Hyundai parts order for a customer at the company’s Columbia, S.C., branch.

May Heavy Equipment’s fleet numbers almost 300, with 90 percent of them rentable. Will Blackerby, vice president of fleet management, focuses on having the right mix of equipment in the inventory.

“Excavators and articulated trucks make up half of our rental fleet and I’d put our truck fleet up against any in the country,” he said.

By mid-July with construction activity at its peak, Blackerby’s truck fleet was operating at full capacity: No trucks were available for rent.

Richie Ambrose, vice president of new equipment sales and 10-year veteran of the company, said the firm is known for its trucks. “As far as units moved, excavators are our number one selling product, but in terms of business volume, it is articulated

trucks. After all, a new truck can cost $360,000, an excavator $160,000.”

Those big-ticket items have made equipment sales the company’s biggest revenue-producer.

Something like 98 percent of May’s business activity today is in the Carolinas, the rest in Virginia and Georgia. Building out the company’s current footprint is the priority over expansion into other states. Jesse Beasley, the company’s general manager of the Carolinas, said full service for the western and eastern edges of North Carolina is a first order of business.

“We’ll have to look at those two areas. Before we expand, we want to fully realize a return on the current investments.”

The company’s chief operations officer, Chuck McGirt, echoes Beasley.

That’s the largest challenge, but we also need to keep the shop full. We need to keep getting new business, reaching out through parts and service, that’s what’s going to keep our shops full in addition to rental fleet maintenance.”

McGirt believes the company’s future is bright. “We are just now getting the infrastructure in place and doing the fine-tuning.

We have great people and state-of-the-art facilities and now just need to execute. We are more than capable of accomplishing what we have set out to do.”

The company president concurs. He looks back on the company’s first two decades and sees contractors who have been customers from the beginning. “We’ve kept our loyal customers,” Jacob May said, “not losing very many. We’ve done a lot in the last four years and we need to extend our footprint at some point, but right now we are going to focus on our home here in the Carolinas. I feel great about where we are and what we are doing.”
