CVAs the best insurance for machine performance

Recognised as a long established partner of many well-known names in the WA construction industry, Pullella Earthmoving has built its success exclusively on one brand of machinery.

A well-used Cat® 922B Wheel Loader sits proudly inside Pullella Earthmoving's head office in Perth's northern suburbs ... a testament to both the history of the company, and the hardiness of the machine.

One of the most widely used wheel loaders in the construction and mining industries, it was the first piece of equipment Leo Pullella bought when he started up the company three decades ago.

The model was part of the 900 series of loaders, known for their durability, simplicity, and versatility in construction and industrial applications. They gained popularity for being easy to maintain, mechanically simple, and built tough.

"And it still runs like a dream," Leo said, patting it with the passion of a man whose veins clearly run thick with the yellow blood. "I love the machines. I'm proud to admit that I'm a Caterpillar® man through and through," he said. Pullella Earthmoving is well-known for providing a wide range of earthmoving and excavation services to commercial and residential clients throughout the Perth metropolitan area and its outer suburbs, and has built a strong reputation for delivering projects on time and within budget, thanks to its skilled staff and a large fleet of modern, well-maintained Cat machinery and trucks.

Leo said the love affair with Cat equipment began when he grew up with his father's earthmoving business, which had a fleet filled with Cat machines.

“As I got older, I started to work in the family business, and there were three generations of us together, including my grandfather,” he said.

Importantly, they instilled within young Leo the values of hard work and treating everyone equally, with dignity and respect.

It was with this ethos that Leo took the leap of faith to go out on his own into the civil works sector.
