When your project timeline depends on getting heavy equipment to the job site, you need transport that works. Our specialized lowboy trailers handle everything from excavators and bulldozers to tall scissor lifts and forklifts that won’t fit on standard trailers.
You get equipment that arrives in the same condition it left, delivered when you need it. No surprises, no delays, no damage claims. Just professional transport that keeps your project moving forward.
Our low-deck trailers solve the height clearance problems that shut down other haulers, and our removable gooseneck systems make loading and unloading straightforward – even for the heaviest machinery.
We’ve been serving Northumberland and the surrounding Saratoga County area since 1997. What started as a logging operation has grown into a full-service excavation and equipment transport company that local contractors and homeowners trust.
Josh and his son run this as a true family business, with Josh personally involved in almost every job to make sure it’s done right. We’re not looking for one-time customers – we want to be your equipment transport company for years to come.
In a town of about 5,200 residents where word travels fast, reputation matters. That’s why we focus on building relationships, not just moving equipment.
First, we assess your equipment and transport needs. Whether you need a standard lowboy for a compact excavator or an RGN trailer for a tall piece of machinery, we match the right trailer to your specific equipment.
Next, we handle all the logistics – route planning, permit requirements, and scheduling that works with your timeline. Our drivers know the local roads and understand the height restrictions and weight limits throughout Saratoga County.
On transport day, we arrive with the proper equipment and secure your machinery using professional tie-down techniques. Your equipment gets delivered exactly where you need it, ready to get back to work. We take care of the details so you can focus on your project.

Our equipment moving services cover everything from compact construction equipment to oversized industrial machinery. We operate multiple trailer types including standard lowboy trailers, RGN (removable gooseneck) units, and hydraulic tilt trailers to handle different loading requirements.
In Northumberland’s growing construction market – where residential development and infrastructure projects are driving demand – having reliable equipment transport matters. Local contractors know that equipment downtime costs money, which is why they choose transport services that show up when promised.
We serve the construction industry, agricultural operations, and industrial facilities throughout Saratoga County. Whether you’re moving equipment between job sites or transporting newly purchased machinery from the dealer, we have the trailers and experience to handle it safely.
We transport a wide range of heavy equipment including excavators, bulldozers, backhoes, skid steers, compact track loaders, and agricultural machinery like tractors and harvesters. Our lowboy trailers can handle equipment up to 12 feet tall and weights up to 50,000 pounds on the trailer deck.
For taller equipment like scissor lifts, boom lifts, or cranes, we use our RGN (removable gooseneck) trailers that sit even lower to the ground. The removable front section also makes it easier to load self-propelled equipment by driving it directly onto the trailer.
We also handle specialized equipment like generators, compressors, and industrial machinery that requires secure transport with proper tie-down points and weight distribution.
Equipment transport pricing depends on several factors: the size and weight of your equipment, distance traveled, trailer type needed, and any special handling requirements. Local moves within Saratoga County typically cost less than long-distance transport to other states.
We provide upfront quotes with no hidden fees. The quote includes proper permits if needed, professional loading and securing, transport, and unloading at your destination. Rush jobs or moves requiring special routing may have additional costs.
For the most accurate pricing, we need to know your equipment specifications, pickup location, delivery address, and timeline. We can usually provide a quote within a few hours of your call, and we’re competitive with other professional equipment movers in the region.
Yes, we handle all necessary permits for oversize and overweight loads traveling through New York state and local jurisdictions. This includes route surveys, permit applications, and coordination with local authorities when required.
New York has specific regulations for equipment transport, especially regarding height restrictions on certain bridges and weight limits on local roads. We know these requirements and plan routes accordingly to avoid delays or violations.
For loads that exceed standard legal limits, we obtain the proper permits before transport begins. This might include overwidth permits for wide equipment or overheight permits for tall machinery. The permit costs are included in your transport quote so there are no surprises.
For local moves within Northumberland and Saratoga County, we can often accommodate same-day or next-day service depending on our schedule and trailer availability. However, scheduling 2-3 days ahead gives us time to properly plan the route and ensure we have the right trailer for your equipment.
For longer distances or moves requiring special permits, we recommend scheduling at least a week in advance. Oversize load permits can take several days to process, and some routes require advance notice to local authorities.
During busy construction seasons (spring through fall), equipment transport demand is higher, so earlier scheduling helps ensure you get the dates you need. We understand that construction projects often have tight timelines, and we work with you to meet your deadlines whenever possible.
Safety starts with using the right trailer for your specific equipment. Our lowboy trailers provide a low center of gravity that reduces the risk of load shifting or tipping during transport. We use professional-grade chains, straps, and tie-down points rated for the weight we’re carrying.
Before transport, we inspect both the equipment and trailer to ensure everything is secure. Our drivers are experienced in heavy haul transport and understand how different types of equipment need to be positioned and secured for safe transport.
We carry comprehensive insurance coverage for the equipment we transport, and our drivers follow all DOT regulations for commercial vehicle operation. Route planning includes checking bridge clearances and weight restrictions to avoid potential hazards along the way.
Yes, we regularly transport non-running equipment including machines with mechanical problems, flat tires, or other issues that prevent them from being driven. Our lowboy trailers are equipped with winches and ramps that allow us to load equipment that can’t drive onto the trailer under its own power.
For heavy non-running equipment, we coordinate with local crane services or use specialized loading equipment to get the machinery onto our trailers safely. This is common when transporting equipment to repair shops or moving machines that have broken down on job sites.
We take extra care with disabled equipment to ensure it’s properly secured for transport. The equipment is positioned to prevent further damage during loading, transport, and unloading. Our drivers have experience handling these situations and know how to work safely around equipment that may have hydraulic leaks or other mechanical issues.
