Mobile Welding in Reedley, CA
Reedley sits along the Kings River in the San Joaquin Valley, downstream from Centerville and 22 miles east-southeast of Fresno, at an elevation of 348 feet. It goes by The World's Fruit Basket, because its chief economic source is agriculture, particularly fruit and vegetable cultivation. The rig comes down the hill for repairs and fabrication at orchards, farms, shops and homes around Reedley.
Covering Reedley and the Kings River
Down Highway 41 into Fresno, then east on Highway 180 past Sanger to Centerville, which sits upstream from Reedley on the Kings River.

The World's Fruit Basket
Thomas Law Reed, a Civil War veteran, gave half of his holdings to the township in 1888, and his gift of land for a railroad station made the town the center of the valley's wheat industry. Later the farms branched out into fruit, including grapes, figs and peaches. Orchard platforms, fruit trailers and farm machinery get repaired where they sit, because the rig carries engine-drive welding power, wire feeders, an oxy-acetylene torch and a plasma cutter.
For directions, a landmark helps: the Reedley Opera House, the Reedley National Bank building, Reedley Municipal Airport, or G Street downtown.
Questions we hear
Do you come out to Reedley?
Yes. The Opera House building went up in 1903, after a fire destroyed two blocks of downtown, and the city incorporated in 1913. The Reedley National Bank building dates to 1907, when the city was first connected to electricity, and Reedley celebrated its centennial in 2013. Highway 180 brings the rig out from Fresno. Call or text and we'll set a time.
Can you repair fruit orchard equipment in Reedley?
Yes. Cracked picking platform frames, broken fruit trailer drawbars, split brush rake teeth and worn rotary mower stump jumpers get welded right in the orchard. Send a photo and the location and we'll plan the trip.
Do you also cover Sanger?
Yes. Highway 180 passes north of Sanger on the way to Centerville, upstream from Reedley, so a Sanger job lines up with the same run.
What hours do you work?
Regular hours are 8 to 5, Monday through Friday. After-hours and emergency call-outs are available 24 hours a day, Monday - Saturday and are quoted up front. Call or text us to schedule.
Something broken in Reedley?
Orchard row or downtown shop, send a photo and the rig heads out Highway 180 toward the Kings River.
