Factors Affecting Equipment Transport Costs
The cost of heavy hauling can vary based on several key factors. Weight is the primary determinant - heavier loads like large dozers and excavators will cost more to haul than smaller skid steers or compactors. Distance traveled is also a major factor, with longer hauls adding more costs for driver time and fuel.
Dimensions matter too - oversized and overweight loads requiring special permits can significantly increase equipment hauling expenses. The complexity of loading and securing the machinery onto the trailer is another cost consideration. Larger, awkwardly shaped equipment may require more labor and specialized rigging.
Emergency or time-sensitive hauls also tend to cost more, as do any hauls involving challenging terrain, site obstructions, or poor access points. CHC's equipment transport experts will provide an upfront pricing estimate factoring all the variables for your specific load and haul.
How to Prepare Your Equipment for Transport
To ensure safe and efficient equipment hauling, it's important to have your machinery properly prepared for loading and transport. CHC Towing recommends having an equipment operator on site to start up and operate each piece to be hauled during the loading process.
All attachments, buckets, blades, etc. should be properly secured and stowed during transit to prevent any excess swing weight or extended load dimensions. Fuel levels, batteries, tires, and other components should be checked beforehand. Providing CHC's drivers clear access, staging areas and any special off-loading requirements helps facilitate a smooth hauling process.
Hauling Oversize & Overweight Loads
Many large excavators, bulldozers, and other heavy machinery are classified as oversized and overweight loads exceeding standard hauling limits. These types of loads require specialized step-deck trailers, rigging techniques, permitting, and potential escorts to legally transport.
As professionals, the team at CHC Towing & Transport is qualified and experienced to handle these oversized/overweight heavy hauls. We follow all regulations for permitted hauling, safety protocols, flag car requirements, piloting, and more to ensure your oversized load arrives safely.
Our fleet includes specialized step-deck, double-drop, multi-axle, and extendable trailers capable of hauling even the largest construction equipment like mining dozers and shovels. Trust CHC for both legal and safe oversize equipment hauling.
