Michael Black learned to love heavy equipment at a very young age. He started rebuilding old tractors alongside his grandfather as a kid, and has been working on machines every since.

After graduating with his heavy truck and coach mechanics licence, Mike ran his own business for eight years, working on machines and learning about the industries they serve.

Mike joined Tri City Materials in 2007, playing several different roles interchangeably from driving tri-axle equipment to serving as lead mechanic. Mike currently holds the title of Fleet and Purchasing Manager, but wears several others hats at the same time, leading the maintenance crew and providing repairs for any and all machinery owned by Tri City.  Mike was also instrumental in adding a new facet to the Tri City operation, helping set up and maintain the company’s new wash plant system introduced in 2010.
