The best way to transport heavy equipment
Individuals and businesses can move their heavy equipment by rail or truck across the U.S. 72.5% of all freight, including heavy equipment, is transported by truck. Shipping equipment to its destination by truck is the most cost-effective route, primarily because of the number of towing options and services available.
Multiple trailers
Heavy haulage companies have a variety of highly specialized trailers that make it easy to transport any type of heavy equipment. Models are available that allow equipment to be loaded from multiple directions and allow track or wheeled vehicles to be driven on the trailer. Low-profile trailers allow the transportation of equipment that would otherwise not meet the height requirements for ground movement. Trailers are specially designed to support the weight of heavy equipment.
Dismantling services
A heavy haulage company also offers machinery dismantling to separate attachments ranging from booms to plows. The service allows accessories to be transported on the same trailer as the equipment to facilitate transport.
Logistics and Tracking
Heavy haulage companies offer advanced logistics to map out the best route for transportation, allowing equipment to arrive safely and on time, whether it’s being shipped cross-country or delivered to a dock for shipping abroad. The company obtains all relevant permits and provides tracking. Customers know exactly where their property is along every stage of their journey. Companies are also aware of the different laws and requirements each state maintains regarding heavy haulage.
Specialized needs
The height, width, weight and length of the machinery may require the use of lights, signage or escort vehicles. A heavy transport company provides all this whenever needed.
Reduced risk
There are many components associated with transporting heavy equipment and they must work in harmony. A heavy transport company takes care of all the elements to reduce and minimize the risk for customers.
