Trustworthy Excavation Equipment Transport
Excavation equipment is handy for construction sites, road work, mining fields, and more. Companies need a reliable company to ship excavation equipment to a different location once a project is done. Excavation equipment easily maneuvers around job sites but can’t be driven over long distances. A professional and experienced excavation equipment transport company like Wide Load Shipping transports excavation equipment safely and delivers on time. The trailer used is determined by the weight and dimensions of your excavation equipment. Large excavation equipment is driven onto the trailer with care.

How to Load and Unload Excavation Equipment on a Trailer
Loading and unloading excavation equipment is done with care to avoid any accidents or bruising. We use professional drivers familiar with your excavation equipment and rigging crews to guide them during the loading process. Excavation equipment is loaded on a trailer by driving it through a ramp at a slow speed for precision. Once the excavation equipment balanced, all the attachments are lowered, and the engine is turned off. It’s then secured using strong chains or straps for transport. The unloading process is similar, but the driver reverses the excavation equipment over the ramps with the guide of a rigging expert on the ground. Small excavators aren’t always driven on a trailer. Sometimes, they’re lifted using a crane. Once the shipment is dispatched, our drivers make regular integrity stops to tighten the straps and chains securing the excavation equipment. Before we load excavation equipment on a trailer, we inspect it and fill out a Bill of Lading (BOL) form.
