When your project timeline depends on equipment showing up intact, you need transport that works. Our specialized lowboy and RGN trailers handle everything from excavators to industrial machinery without the headaches that come with inexperienced haulers.
You get equipment that arrives in the same condition it left. No surprise damage. No delays that cost you money. No scrambling to find backup solutions when things go wrong.
Your crew stays productive, your project stays on schedule, and you can focus on the work that matters instead of worrying about whether your equipment will make it safely to the job site.
We’ve been serving the Riverbank area since 1997. What started as a logging operation has grown into a full-service excavation and equipment transport company that understands what local contractors and property owners actually need.
Josh oversees nearly every job personally, which means you’re not dealing with a faceless company that treats your expensive equipment like just another load. When you’re moving a $200,000 excavator, that personal attention makes all the difference.
We’ve built our reputation on being the company that shows up when we say we will and gets the job done right the first time. That’s why contractors throughout the Capital Region keep coming back to us for their equipment moving needs.
First, we assess your equipment and job site requirements. Not every piece of equipment needs the same type of trailer, and not every job site has the same access challenges. We match the right trailer type – whether that’s a lowboy, RGN, or Landoll – to your specific needs.
Next, we handle all the permit requirements and route planning. Oversize loads need proper documentation, and some routes require escorts or specific timing. We take care of those details so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy.
On moving day, our experienced operators handle the loading, transport, and unloading with the specialized equipment needed to keep your machinery secure. You get regular updates throughout the process, and we don’t consider the job complete until your equipment is positioned exactly where you need it.

Our equipment moving services cover the full range of construction and industrial machinery. Excavators, bulldozers, cranes, forklifts, scissor lifts – if it’s too big or valuable to risk with standard transport, we have the right trailer and expertise to move it safely.
We use lowboy trailers for tall equipment that needs to stay under height restrictions, RGN trailers when you need the convenience of drive-on/drive-off loading, and Landoll trailers for non-running equipment or challenging loading situations. Each trailer type has specific advantages, and we’ll recommend the most cost-effective option for your situation.
In the Riverbank area, we understand the local road conditions, permit requirements, and seasonal challenges that can affect equipment transport. That local knowledge helps us avoid problems before they happen and keeps your equipment moving on schedule even when conditions aren’t perfect.
We use three main types of specialized trailers depending on your equipment and situation. Lowboy trailers sit just 24 inches off the ground, making them perfect for tall equipment that needs to stay under height restrictions. They’re ideal for excavators, bulldozers, and other construction machinery.
RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers have a detachable front section that allows equipment to drive directly on and off from ground level. This makes loading and unloading much easier, especially for equipment that can operate under its own power.
Landoll trailers are excellent for non-running equipment or situations where you need maximum flexibility in loading. They can handle equipment that other trailers can’t accommodate and are particularly useful for challenging job sites with limited access.
Yes, we handle all permit requirements as part of our service. When your equipment exceeds standard width (8’6″), height (13’6″), or weight (80,000 lbs) limits, special permits are required. We know exactly what documentation is needed and have established relationships with the relevant authorities.
We also coordinate with local authorities for escort services when required. Some routes through high-traffic areas or over certain bridges require police escorts, and we arrange those in advance so there are no delays on moving day.
The permit process can be complex and time-consuming if you’re not familiar with it. By handling this for you, we eliminate potential delays and ensure your equipment transport stays compliant with all state and local regulations.
Equipment safety starts with proper trailer selection and continues through every step of the transport process. We use specialized securement equipment designed specifically for heavy machinery – not just standard tie-downs that might work for lighter cargo.
Our operators are experienced with the unique requirements of different equipment types. An excavator needs different securement than a crane, and we understand those differences. We also use protective materials to prevent damage from road debris and weather during transport.
Before and after transport, we document the condition of your equipment with detailed photos. This protects both you and us, and it’s part of our comprehensive insurance coverage. If something does go wrong – which is rare with proper procedures – you’re fully protected.
Trailer costs vary based on the complexity of the equipment and the specific requirements of your job. Lowboy trailers are typically the most economical option when they’re suitable for your equipment. RGN trailers cost more due to their specialized hydraulic systems, but they can save money on loading/unloading if you have equipment that can drive on and off.
Landoll trailers are usually the most expensive option, but they’re often the only choice for non-running equipment or challenging loading situations. The extra cost is usually justified when it’s the only way to move your equipment safely.
We always recommend the most cost-effective solution that meets your safety and timeline requirements. Sometimes paying a bit more for the right trailer saves money overall by avoiding delays, damage, or additional equipment rental costs.
Absolutely. Non-running equipment is actually quite common in our business, whether it’s broken down, being moved for repairs, or simply doesn’t have an operator available. We have the specialized equipment needed to load and secure machinery that can’t move under its own power.
For non-running equipment, we typically use either a Landoll trailer with hydraulic loading capabilities or arrange for a crane or loader at the pickup location. The choice depends on the weight and size of your equipment and the accessibility of the pickup site.
We coordinate all the loading equipment in advance, so there are no surprises or delays on moving day. The key is planning ahead and making sure the pickup and delivery sites can accommodate the loading equipment we need to use.
For standard equipment moves within the region, we can usually accommodate requests with 3-5 days notice. However, if your equipment requires special permits, escort services, or has unusual dimensions, we recommend scheduling at least a week in advance.
Oversize loads that need permits can take several days to process the paperwork, especially if multiple jurisdictions are involved. Holiday weekends and peak construction seasons can also affect scheduling, so earlier booking is always better.
Emergency moves are possible in some situations, but they typically cost more due to rush permit processing and the need to rearrange other scheduled jobs. If you know you’ll need equipment moved, give us as much advance notice as possible to ensure the most efficient and cost-effective solution.
