Why Choose Our Heavy Equipment Shipping Solutions?
Transporting heavy machinery—such as excavators, cranes, bulldozers, tractors, or industrial generators—requires highly specialized logistics, heavy-haul trailers, and rigorous permit management. We provide a complete, hassle-free heavy-equipment transport service from origin to destination, managing all route planning, loading, and compliance.
Fully Licensed & Insured Heavy Hauling: Your valuable machinery is backed by comprehensive transit insurance, protecting your assets throughout the journey.
State-of-the-Art Heavy Fleet: Access to specialized transport trailers including lowboys, step-decks, flatbeds, and multi-axle heavy-haul configurations.
Oversized Load Permits & Escorts: We handle all route surveys, state/provincial permits, and pilot car escorts required for superloads and oversized transport.
Global Multimodal Capabilities: Seamless integration of overland trucking, Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) ocean shipping, and flat-rack containerization for international deliveries.
Heavy Machinery Transport Methods
| Shipping Method | Best For | Key Advantage |
| Lowboy / Flatbed Trucking | Domestic land transport of excavators, dozers, and wheel loaders | Drops low to the ground to accommodate exceptionally tall machinery safely. |
| RoRo Sea Shipping | Wheeled or self-propelled machinery (tractors, dump trucks, cranes) | Roll-on/Roll-off; highly cost-effective and safe international ocean transit. |
| Flat Rack & Open Top Containers | Oversized, heavy, or irregularly shaped non-running machinery | Secures complex cargo that exceeds standard container dimensions. |
| Breakbulk & Lift-on/Lift-off (LoLo) | Static, extra-large, or disassembled industrial plant machinery | Heavy-lift cranes load massive pieces directly onto cargo decks. |
Shipping heavy equipment successfully relies on meticulous preparation. Our team follows strict industry protocols before every haul:
Comprehensive Preparation & Safety Standards
1
Precision Measurements:
We record precise weight, height, length, and width to secure the correct permits and avoid low bridges.
2
Component Securing:
Moving arms, boom cranes, buckets, and blades are securely locked down or detached and lashed separately.
3
Rust & Corrosion Prevention:
For international sea voyages, we apply protective coverings and corrosion inhibitors to protect raw metals.
4
Fluid & Battery Safety:
We verify batteries are disconnected and fluid levels are properly managed to prevent hazardous leaks during transit.
Frequently Asked Questions (Heavy Equipment FAQ)
Q: Do you obtain the necessary permits for oversized or overweight machinery?
A: Yes! We handle the entire permitting process. This includes acquiring local, state, or international oversized load permits, arranging civil route surveys, and booking pilot/escort cars if the dimensions require them.
Q: How can I prepare my heavy equipment for transport?
A: Before the pickup date, we recommend power washing the machinery (customs often require clean equipment), disconnecting the batteries, securing any loose or moving attachments, and documenting its pre-shipment condition with clear photos.
Q: Can you ship non-running heavy machinery?
A: Absolutely. While rolling and operational machinery is easier to load, we can transport non-operational machinery using specialized heavy-duty winches, cranes, or trailers equipped for lift-on/lift-off cargo.
