Your project timeline depends on equipment showing up when promised. That bulldozer sitting at the dealer doesn’t help you meet deadlines. Neither does a hauler who quotes one price and bills another.
Our lowboy trailer transport services handle everything from compact excavators to full-size dozers. We use the right trailer for your equipment – whether that’s a standard lowboy, RGN, or Landoll trailer. Your machinery gets secured properly, transported safely, and delivered on schedule.
No more scrambling to find backup transport when your original hauler disappears. No more explaining to your client why their job is delayed because equipment didn’t arrive. We show up when we say we will and get your equipment where it needs to be.
We’ve been moving equipment around the Brant Lake area since we started in 1997. We know which routes work for oversize loads and which ones don’t. We understand the seasonal challenges that come with working in the Adirondacks.
This isn’t some national outfit that treats your area like everywhere else. We work here. We live here. When you call, you’re talking to people who actually know the roads your equipment needs to travel.
That local knowledge matters when you’re dealing with permits, route planning, and delivery logistics. We handle the details so you can focus on your project instead of worrying about transportation headaches.
First, we need to know what you’re moving. Equipment type, dimensions, weight, and pickup location. This helps us choose the right trailer and plan the route properly.
Next comes scheduling and permits. We handle any oversize permits required and coordinate pickup times that work for you. No surprises about additional fees or requirements you weren’t told about upfront.
On transport day, our operator shows up on time with the proper equipment. Your machinery gets loaded safely, secured according to DOT standards, and transported directly to your delivery location. We keep you updated throughout the process so you know exactly when to expect arrival.

Our lowboy and RGN trailers handle most construction equipment you need moved. Excavators, bulldozers, backhoes, skid steers, and compact track loaders are routine jobs for us. We also transport larger equipment like wheel loaders and motor graders when needed.
Landoll trailers work well for equipment that needs to be driven on and off easily. Forklifts, scissor lifts, and other wheeled equipment often move more efficiently this way. We match the trailer type to your specific equipment rather than trying to make everything fit one solution.
The Brant Lake area sees a lot of seasonal construction activity, which means equipment moving peaks during certain times of the year. We plan ahead for busy periods and maintain enough trailer capacity to handle demand without making you wait weeks for an available slot.
We use lowboy trailers, RGN (removable gooseneck) trailers, and Landoll trailers depending on your equipment type and loading requirements. Lowboy trailers work well for tracked equipment like excavators and dozers because of the low deck height. RGN trailers offer easier loading for larger equipment since the front detaches completely.
Landoll trailers have hydraulic tilt beds that make loading wheeled equipment much easier. Forklifts, scissor lifts, and similar machines can often drive right onto the trailer without needing ramps or additional loading equipment. We select the trailer type based on your specific equipment and what will make the loading and transport process most efficient.
We take care of all permit requirements for oversize loads. This includes checking route restrictions, obtaining the proper permits from New York DOT, and coordinating any required escort vehicles. The permit process varies depending on equipment dimensions and weight.
Most standard construction equipment stays within legal limits and doesn’t require special permits. However, wider loads or particularly tall equipment may need oversize permits and specific routing. We handle this paperwork and include permit costs in your upfront quote so there are no surprises. Our experience with local regulations means we know what’s required before we even pick up your equipment.
Our pricing includes the trailer, operator, fuel, insurance, and standard loading/unloading. We provide upfront quotes that cover the complete transport service without hidden fees. If your equipment requires special permits or escort vehicles, those costs are included in the quote we give you.
Loading and unloading are included as long as your equipment can be driven or moved onto the trailer under its own power. If you need additional equipment like cranes for loading, we’ll let you know upfront and can often coordinate that service. We believe in transparent pricing because surprise charges don’t help anyone plan their project budgets properly.
For standard equipment moves within the region, we typically need 2-3 days notice during normal periods. However, during busy construction seasons or for oversize loads requiring permits, we recommend scheduling at least a week ahead. This gives us time to handle permits and route planning properly.
Emergency moves are sometimes possible depending on equipment availability and route requirements. If you have a breakdown situation or urgent project need, call us and we’ll do our best to accommodate. Having some flexibility in your timeline always helps, especially during peak construction season when everyone needs equipment moved at the same time.
Yes, all equipment transport is covered by our commercial insurance policy. This includes coverage for damage that might occur during loading, transport, or unloading. We carry appropriate liability and cargo coverage as required by DOT regulations for commercial hauling.
You should verify that our coverage limits meet your equipment value and any requirements from your own insurance company. We can provide certificates of insurance and policy details when needed. Most equipment owners find our standard coverage adequate, but we’ll work with you if your situation requires additional coverage or specific policy language.
Safety comes first, so we don’t transport equipment in dangerous weather conditions. Ice, heavy snow, or severe storms can delay pickup or delivery for everyone’s safety. We monitor weather forecasts and will contact you if conditions might affect your scheduled transport.
When weather delays occur, we reschedule as soon as conditions improve and work around your project timeline as much as possible. Winter transport in the Adirondacks requires extra planning, but we operate year-round and have experience dealing with seasonal challenges. We’d rather deliver your equipment safely a day late than risk damage or accidents by rushing through poor conditions.
