Your expensive machinery deserves more than just getting from point A to point B. You need it arriving in the same condition it left, on the day you planned, without project delays or damage claims eating into your bottom line.
When your equipment moves with our lowboy and RGN trailer services, you’re not dealing with last-minute scheduling changes or discovering hidden fees after the fact. Your bulldozers, excavators, and specialized machinery get the professional handling they require.
The difference shows up in your project timeline staying on track and your equipment performing exactly as expected when it arrives at the job site.
Emerson Excavating and Trucking has been serving the Kingsbury area since 1997, starting as a logging business before transitioning to full-time excavation and equipment services. Josh, our owner, is personally involved in nearly every job to ensure quality standards are met.
As a family-owned business operating in Saratoga, Warren, and Washington Counties, we understand the local routes, regulations, and requirements that can make or break an equipment move. We know which roads handle heavy loads and which permits are needed for your specific transport.
This isn’t about being the biggest operation in the region. It’s about being the most reliable one when your project depends on equipment arriving safely and on schedule.
First, we assess your equipment specifications and destination requirements. Our team determines whether your machinery needs lowboy trailer transport for height clearance or RGN trailer services for easier loading through the removable gooseneck feature.
Next, we handle all permit requirements and route planning. You won’t be scrambling to figure out which roads are approved for heavy loads or dealing with DOT compliance issues. We take care of the regulatory details so your equipment moves legally and efficiently.
On transport day, we arrive with the appropriate trailer configuration and professional loading equipment. Your machinery gets secured properly for the journey, and we maintain communication throughout the transport process.
Upon delivery, we coordinate with your site team for safe unloading. Your equipment arrives ready for immediate deployment on your project.

Our equipment moving services in Kingsbury include lowboy trailer transport for tall machinery that needs maximum height clearance. These specialized trailers sit close to the ground, allowing excavators, bulldozers, and other construction equipment to travel under bridges and through areas with overhead restrictions.
For equipment that can be driven onto trailers, we provide RGN (Removable Gooseneck) transport services. The detachable front section creates a ground-level ramp, making it easier to load tracked vehicles and wheeled machinery without requiring cranes or additional lifting equipment.
Local contractors in the Kingsbury area rely on our services because we understand the unique challenges of moving heavy equipment through rural roads and construction sites. We’re familiar with seasonal weight restrictions, local permitting requirements, and the most efficient routes for oversized loads.
Whether you’re moving a single piece of equipment or coordinating multiple machinery transports for a large project, our fleet and expertise handle the logistics while you focus on your construction work.
We transport all types of construction and excavation equipment including excavators, bulldozers, wheel loaders, dump trucks, compactors, and specialized machinery. Our lowboy trailers handle equipment up to 12 feet tall, while our RGN trailers accommodate machinery that can be driven directly onto the trailer bed.
The key is matching the right trailer type to your specific equipment. Tracked vehicles like excavators work well with both lowboy and RGN options, while wheeled equipment often benefits from the ground-loading convenience of removable gooseneck trailers.
We also handle oversized attachments, bucket trucks, and specialized construction vehicles that require careful route planning and permitting for safe transport through the Kingsbury area.
Transport costs depend on equipment dimensions, weight, distance, and any special handling requirements. We provide upfront pricing that includes all necessary permits, route planning, and professional loading services with no hidden fees.
Local moves within the Kingsbury area typically cost less than long-distance transport, but the specific trailer type needed affects pricing. RGN trailers may cost slightly more due to their specialized loading capabilities, while standard lowboy transport offers cost-effective solutions for most construction equipment.
We’ll assess your equipment specifications and destination to provide an accurate quote that covers all aspects of the transport process, so you can budget appropriately for your project needs.
Yes, we handle all necessary permits and regulatory compliance for equipment transport in New York State. This includes oversize load permits, route approvals, and coordination with local authorities when required for your specific equipment move.
Our experience with DOT regulations and local permitting requirements in Saratoga, Warren, and Washington Counties means you don’t have to navigate the bureaucratic process yourself. We know which routes are approved for heavy loads and what documentation is needed.
We also stay current with seasonal weight restrictions and temporary road limitations that could affect your equipment transport schedule, ensuring your move proceeds legally and efficiently.
For standard equipment moves within the Kingsbury area, we can often accommodate same-day or next-day scheduling depending on availability. However, we recommend booking 2-3 days in advance to ensure the appropriate trailer and permits are secured for your specific needs.
Oversized loads or equipment requiring special permits may need additional lead time for route approvals and regulatory compliance. Long-distance transport or moves during peak construction season also benefit from advance scheduling.
If you have an urgent equipment move, contact us immediately. We understand that construction projects operate on tight timelines, and we’ll work to accommodate emergency transport needs whenever possible while maintaining safety standards.
Lowboy trailers sit very close to the ground with a fixed gooseneck, making them ideal for tall equipment that needs maximum height clearance. They’re perfect for excavators, bulldozers, and other machinery that would exceed height limits on standard trailers.
RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers have a detachable front section that creates a ground-level loading ramp. This makes them excellent for equipment that can be driven directly onto the trailer, eliminating the need for cranes or other lifting equipment during loading and unloading.
Both trailer types handle heavy construction equipment safely, but the choice depends on your specific machinery and loading situation. We’ll recommend the best option based on your equipment specifications and job site access requirements.
Yes, we regularly deliver equipment to construction sites with challenging access conditions throughout the Kingsbury area. Our experience with rural roads, tight job sites, and seasonal access limitations helps us plan successful deliveries even in difficult conditions.
We conduct route surveys when necessary to identify potential obstacles like low bridges, weight-restricted roads, or narrow passages that could affect equipment delivery. This advance planning prevents delays and ensures your machinery reaches the job site safely.
Our drivers are experienced with backing large trailers into tight spaces and coordinating with site personnel for safe unloading. We also work with your project timeline to schedule deliveries when site access is optimal and won’t interfere with other construction activities.
