5 Reasons Pole Base Was the Go-To Choice for a Georgia Publix Project
Owner: Publix Contractor: Miller Drilling Location: Kingsland, GA Year Built: 2025 Light Pole Base Size: 24 in x 8.5 in Quantity: 34
When construction began on a new Publix grocery store in Kingsland, Georgia, the project required reliable parking lot and site lighting. Miller Drilling, the site work contractor and a returning Truemont Materials customer, recognized the value of Pole Base for this application. They ordered 34 precast Pole Base units for delivery and installation.
5 Reasons Pole Base Was Selected for This Project:
- Rapid Installation Saved Time on Site: Pole Base was chosen for its quick installation, keeping the Publix project moving efficiently without delays.
- Minimal Disruption to Paving Work: Because the bases could be installed ahead of paving, the team avoided interrupting or reworking finished surfaces.
- Eliminated On-Site Formwork and Pouring: Using precast light pole bases instead of cast-in-place alternatives reduced labor complexities and site work.
- Streamlined Site Lighting Installation: By setting the bases before pavement installation, Miller Drilling accelerated the entire site lighting process from start to finish.
- Custom-Built with Seamless Project Coordination: Each Pole Base unit was built to project specifications and delivered on time through close coordination with Truemont Materials.

The installed bases are 24 inches in diameter and 8.5 feet tall, with a 5.5-foot embedment depth, and feature a smooth finish with a slight bevel on the top.
