"I moved from NY to Florida and the only smooth part was my auto transport with Rob. He gives such fair prices and got the car to me two days early. They picked up when they said and had zero issues with the car upon return."

The Different Options for Our Heavy Oversized Equipment Shipping Service
When you use our truck shipping services, it doesn’t matter what size your truck is. We have lowboy trailers designed to move even the largest of trucks. We will use an auto transport carrier for small-sized vehicles, such as pick-up trucks. For trucks that weigh over 8000 pounds, we will most likely use a step deck trailer. And, for even bigger trucks and other large vehicles, we will use a lowboy trailer.
Compliance with Regulations and Permits for Oversized Heavy Equipment Transport
Transporting heavy equipment often involves complying with various regulations and obtaining necessary permits for oversized and overweight loads. Number 1 Auto Transport has a deep understanding of these regulations, saving you the time and effort of navigating through complex legal requirements.
Number 1 Auto Transport's Heavy Equipment Transport with Lowboy / Step Deck Carriers
The most efficient way to transport your heavy equipment is on a lowboy transport carrier. The lowboy is an extended, flat platform with specialized equipment that secures massive amounts of gross tonnage. Generally, lowboys are called upon when heavy equipment transportation is needed. Driving a dump truck or bulldozer a long way is highly inefficient – and environmentally unfriendly.
Lowboy transport allows maximum efficiency and saves time. It’s not uncommon to see a lowboy moving crane parts and oversized construction materials. These platforms distribute weight most effectively, allowing drivers the flexibility to safely transport such a heavy load.
How Long Does It Take To Transport Oversized Heavy Equipment?
Depending on the car’s location, most pickup windows are 24-72 hours from when the vehicle is ready to be picked up. This window could take up to 5 days in remote areas.
- Heavy Equipment Transport turnaround time for a destination under 1,000 miles in 2-3 days.
- From 1,000-1750, the transit time is estimated to be 4-6 days.
- From 1,750-2,500, the transit time is estimated at 7-10 days.
