Pads & Loading Docks

Heavy-Duty Concrete Built to Handle the Load

When your property needs to support dumpsters, HVAC units, or daily deliveries, you need more than just concrete—you need the right kind of concrete, installed by a team that knows what’s at stake. As a Minneapolis concrete contractor with decades of experience, we build and repair concrete pads and loading docks that hold up under pressure and meet code the first time.

Whether you’re outfitting a new site or replacing a cracked, undersized pad, we’ll help you get it done right. From reinforced dumpster pads to loading docks designed for semi-truck traffic, Erickson Concrete delivers lasting solutions that protect your property and keep your operations moving.

Installing Concrete Pads in Minneapolis

Dumpster pads, equipment pads, and service area slabs are exposed to more abuse than any other surface on your property. Poor drainage, improper thickness, and lack of reinforcement often lead to early failure. We don’t cut corners. We install concrete pads in Minneapolis and the surrounding metro that are designed to last.

Our concrete pad services include:

• Dumpster pads with steel-reinforced concrete to handle repeated impacts from trucks
• HVAC and utility pads that provide stable, level bases for rooftop units and ground-mounted systems
• Equipment pads for generators, compactors, and other commercial machinery
• Site grading and drainage solutions to prevent water pooling and erosion

We’ve helped property managers, business owners, and facility engineers across the Twin Cities eliminate the headache of failing concrete by doing the job right the first time.

Concrete Loading Dock Construction

We also build and repair loading docks for commercial and industrial properties. Whether you need a new ramp, a poured dock wall, or a full truck bay installation, we’ll take care of the details—like slope, approach angle, and reinforcing steel—so you don’t have to worry about rework or failed inspections.

Our team handles:

• New loading dock construction and layout
• Reinforced ramps and dock slabs
• Poured concrete walls and steps
• Dock bumpers, curbs, and approach aprons
• Loading dock repairs and retrofits

We build loading docks throughout Minneapolis and nearby cities that stand up to harsh winters, heavy use, and the wear that comes with daily deliveries.
