Company: Palmetto Equipment and Supply
Established: 1990
Description: We are Palmetto Equipment and Supply Company, located on Daniel Island, just off the coast of
Charleston SC. We supply land surveyors and construction companies with all of the latest technology for the field.
Whether it be GPS equipment or software, total stations and data collectors, or even just flagging and bushaxes,
we have what you need...both new and used. We ship same day and will deliver anywhere in the low country by hand.
We have a full printing and scanning (reprographics) outfit in house and we are equipped to produce the highest
quality print products and designs. Please visit our ebay store at stores.ebay.com/epalmetto
Our background stretches way back into the 70's in Reprographics and Printing-back when Bluetooth was something
that happened to you when you ate too much smurf ice cream. We were just a typical Blueprint shop with GAF,
Dietzgen, and Bruning blueprint machines. Blue-tipped fingers and the wretched scent of ammonia that we had
somehow gotten used to somewhere along the way... working all hours to finish a project. Around this same time,
we began selling cross-section paper, survey chairs and drafting film. (By the way, I say 'we,' but in all actuality,
the early years were basically all about me, Skip-founder and owner of Palmetto Equipment and Supply).
Surveying equipment to be calibrated back then was the K&E Paragon Transit, Path levels and levels by Berger,
Ziess, K&E, Dietzgen and the like, just to name a few. Our roots are in in the blueprinting business and it isn't
hard to see how blueprinting, architects and engineers fit together.
Furthermore, it became apparent that all blueprint companies serviced architects and engineers with supplies and equipment and secondary was the surveyors and
construction companies. So Palmetto was started out of the back of a black 89 Ford Stepside truck. Things went
very well and Palmetto was born, taking pretty much the exact opposite approach of the old blueprint shop.
From now on, Surveying and Construction would come first, scanning and printing was now second on the priority list.
These days, Palmetto Equipment and Supply has a main office and storefront on Daniel Island, SC, just off the coast
of Charleston. We consist of 13 employees at present and we cover the entire state plus several regions on the
outskirts. On the construction side, we offer levels, lasers, transits, total stations, even machine control
(automatics for dozers, graders, scrappers and pavers).
Not only that, we carry construction software for
estimating and creating DTMs and profiles for roads, project site work, etc. On the survey side, we offer
survey grade GPS, representing Sokkia, Magellan, Ashtech, NAVCOM, just to name a few. We also carry
robotic total stations, all bluetooth (no cables) along with data collectors, data collection software and desktop
software to create drawings. Not to mention, we always have access to older model guns and accessories,
for all of you guys who like to keep it old-school. Our store is stocked with all of the supplies, gadgets and gizmos
that are customarily needed in the field. From wood stakes and hubs to rebar, rebar caps, paint, field books and
mag nails, Palmetto is a full service, one stop shop for Construction and Surveying for our state and for yours as well.
Subsequently, we just so happen to also be the EXCLUSIVE distributor of Carlson software for the state
of South Carolina.
While providing just about any product you could ever imagine needing, it has always remained our #1 priority to
do all of this in as personal manner as possible, building a relationship with our clients so when that day comes
that they really need someone to count on for help, they won't be the slightest bit ashamed or hesitate to call us 24-7.
That is how our slogan became "A Company Built on Service and Customer Relationships"
