About Target

A family business, built for the industry’s most challenging projects.

Target Contractors was established in 2008 by David Evans and provides demolition, asset recovery, and environmental services for federal, industrial, commercial, and municipal clients across the United States. We take on projects that call for more than equipment: planning, technical expertise, adaptability, and disciplined execution. Our mission is to create safer places and clear the way for what’s next through demolition and environmental solutions.

Our work covers active industrial plants, manufacturing facilities, military installations, power generation sites, aerospace campuses, and large redevelopment projects. We are a small business based in Moncks Corner, South Carolina, and are licensed and registered to work in more than twenty states.

What sets us apart

We don’t just manage change. We thrive in it. Every project has conditions no one planned for. We listen first, plan for what we know, and stay ready to adapt to what we don’t, all while holding safety, schedule, and quality. That is what sets Target apart, and it is why owners bring us projects that others may not pursue.

  • Self-performance. 80% or more self-performed. Our in-house crews mean the people who plan your job are the people running it, with direct control over quality, safety, and schedule.
  • Value recovery. 85%+ of material diverted from landfills through recycling and recovery, which reduces waste and project cost.
  • Modern equipment. Specialized equipment, maintained to do demanding work efficiently.
  • Experienced workforce. 150+ years combined experience across our key personnel, with work across industrial, commercial, and federal projects.
  • Safety culture. We look after each other, and safety is built into every phase of planning and execution.

Leadership
