Types of Trucks for Heavy Equipment Transport

Transporting heavy equipment requires specialized trucks for oversized loads designed to handle bulldozers, excavators, cranes, and other industrial machinery. Here are the main types of heavy-duty transport trucks used for shipping heavy equipment:

1. Lowbed Trailers

Designed for carrying extremely heavy and oversized machinery.

Features a low deck to accommodate high-clearance equipment.

Ideal for transporting bulldozers, excavators, and large industrial machinery.

2. Flatbed Trailers

Versatile transport trucks commonly used for hauling heavy loads.

Suitable for equipment that can be lifted and secured easily.

Best for hauling construction materials and medium-sized machinery.

3. Extendable Trailers

Adjustable length to accommodate extra-long equipment.

Used for transporting large pipes, beams, or wind turbine parts.

4. Step Deck Trailers (Drop Deck Trailers)

Has two levels, allowing for taller cargo to fit within legal height limits.

Ideal for transporting forklifts, agricultural machinery, and industrial equipment.

5. RGN (Removable Gooseneck) Trailers

The front detaches, allowing the equipment to be driven directly onto the trailer.

Suitable for transporting massive loads like cranes and oversized excavators.

6. Heavy-Duty Tow Trucks

Equipped with strong winches and hydraulic systems.

7. Multi-Axle Trailers

Each heavy transport truck is selected based on the size, weight, and type of heavy equipment being transported, ensuring safe and efficient delivery across different routes.
