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.
