Verify before you call
Everything a purchasing agent, county judge, or engineer screens for before adding a contractor to a vendor or bid list is public record, not a sales pitch. License number and classifications, USDOT carrier status, BBB history, insurance certificates on request, bonding available on request. The verification links, before you ask: ACLB contractor search, FMCSA SAFER snapshot, and our BBB profile.
Larry Cox Construction, Inc. (dba Cox Earthworks) holds AR Contractors Licensing Board License #3287-C (Commercial), active, expiring 04/2027, with classifications in Highway, Railroad & Airport Construction and Underground Piping, Cable, Trenching & Boring — and the classifications are worked, not just held on paper: road and street work and airport sitework under the first, water and sanitary sewer mains and laterals and storm drainage under the second. Company trucks and drivers operate under USDOT #581938 as an active intrastate carrier with a clean safety record. The BBB file has been open since 2006 with zero complaints. The company incorporated in 2009 on top of a family dirt-work operation running since 1972 — three generations, Larry, Connie, Matthew and Lance Cox.
The anchor project
In 2007, Cox ran one of the first Topcon 3D GPS machine-control systems in Arkansas on the City of Heber Springs softball complex — a job covered by Construction Equipment magazine (2010) and For Construction Pros, both reporting grading accuracy to a half inch. Today's Komatsu intelligent machine-control dozers hold finish grade to a tenth of a foot. It's a press-documented track record on public ground that an engineer or facilities director can check independently before a bid ever opens.
Rock doesn't stall a utility trench
A 10,000-lb hydraulic hammer on an 80,000-lb excavator breaks rock in place beside existing roads, structures and buried infrastructure — no blasting subcontractor, no blast permits, no evacuating a school or a courthouse block. Rock encountered mid-trench gets handled the same day, same crew.
Published rates
We publish an hourly equipment rate sheet at dozer work & equipment rates — T&M work and change-order pricing an agency can verify before ever asking for a number. Bids are built to your plans and specifications; bonding is available on request.
