When your excavator, bulldozer, or specialty equipment needs to move, you need it done right the first time. No scratches on your $200,000 machine. No delays that cost you thousands in downtime. No surprise fees that blow your budget.
You get equipment that arrives exactly when promised, in the same condition it left. Your project stays on schedule. Your crew stays productive. Your stress stays low.
That’s what happens when you work with people who understand that your equipment isn’t just machinery—it’s your livelihood.
We’ve been moving heavy equipment across Fayville and the surrounding New York region since 1997. What started as a logging operation evolved into a full-service excavation and transport company when we saw how many contractors needed reliable equipment moving services.
Josh Emerson personally oversees nearly every transport, bringing the same attention to detail whether you’re moving a compact excavator or a 50-ton crane. We’re not the biggest company, but we’re the one that treats your equipment like it’s our own.
Local contractors choose us because we know these roads, understand the permit requirements, and show up when we say we will.
First, we assess your equipment and route to determine the right trailer type—lowboy, RGN, Landoll, or hydraulic tilt. We handle all permit requirements and route planning so you don’t have to navigate the regulatory maze.
On transport day, our experienced operators arrive with the proper equipment to safely load your machinery. We use professional tie-down systems and follow strict securing protocols to prevent any movement during transit.
Throughout the journey, we maintain communication about timing and any route changes. Upon arrival, we carefully unload your equipment exactly where you need it, ready for immediate use.

Our fleet includes lowboy trailers for standard heavy equipment, RGN (removable gooseneck) trailers for easy drive-on loading, Landoll trailers with sliding axles for precise positioning, and hydraulic tilt trailers for low-angle loading of sensitive equipment.
In Fayville’s growing construction market, timing is everything. New residential developments are expanding throughout the area, and commercial projects are increasing as the local economy strengthens. We understand the unique challenges of moving equipment through our region’s mix of rural roads and developing areas.
Every transport includes proper permitting for oversize loads, escort vehicles when required, and full insurance coverage. We work with your schedule, not against it, offering both emergency moves and planned relocations to keep your projects moving forward.
We transport excavators, bulldozers, dump trucks, cranes, loaders, and other construction equipment weighing up to 80,000 pounds total. Our lowboy trailers accommodate equipment up to 12 feet tall and handle both tracked and wheeled machinery.
The key is matching the right trailer to your specific equipment. RGN trailers work best for self-loading equipment, while standard lowboys are ideal for crane-loaded machinery. We assess each job individually to ensure safe, legal transport.
We obtain all necessary permits before your equipment moves, including oversize and overweight permits required by New York State and local municipalities. This includes route surveys to identify any restrictions or obstacles.
Our experience with Fayville area regulations means we know which routes work best and can often avoid delays that inexperienced haulers encounter. We coordinate with utility companies for power line clearances when needed and arrange escort vehicles for loads requiring them.
The permit process typically takes 2-5 business days, which we factor into your scheduling. Rush permits are available for emergency situations, though they cost more and have limited route options.
Lowboy trailers have a fixed deck height and require crane loading, making them ideal for equipment that can’t drive onto trailers. They offer maximum stability for heavy loads and work well for damaged or non-running equipment.
RGN (removable gooseneck) trailers have a detachable front section, allowing equipment to drive directly onto the deck. This eliminates crane costs and speeds loading for operational machinery like excavators and loaders.
The choice depends on your equipment’s condition, available loading equipment, and cost considerations. RGN trailers typically cost slightly more but save money when you don’t have crane access at pickup or delivery locations.
For standard moves within 50 miles of Fayville, we typically need 3-5 days notice to secure permits and coordinate schedules. Longer distances or oversize loads requiring special permits need 5-10 days advance scheduling.
Emergency moves are possible with 24-48 hours notice, though they’re limited to routes that don’t require special permitting. These urgent transports cost more due to permit expediting fees and scheduling premiums.
Peak construction season (April through October) fills up faster, so booking two weeks ahead ensures better scheduling flexibility. Winter moves are generally easier to schedule on shorter notice due to reduced construction activity.
Yes, we coordinate all loading and unloading using our network of certified crane operators and equipment handlers. This includes positioning equipment exactly where you need it at the delivery site.
For RGN trailer transport, we can often drive equipment directly on and off the trailer if it’s operational. For non-running equipment or precise positioning requirements, we arrange appropriate lifting equipment.
Loading services are included in transport pricing for standard situations. Complex positioning, multiple moves at one site, or challenging terrain may involve additional charges, which we discuss upfront during scheduling.
We carry comprehensive commercial auto liability and cargo insurance covering your equipment’s full replacement value during transport. This includes coverage for loading, transit, and unloading phases of the move.
Our insurance meets all New York State requirements for commercial hauling and includes protection against damage from accidents, weather, and other unforeseen circumstances. We provide certificates of insurance before transport begins.
For extremely high-value equipment, additional coverage options are available. We recommend reviewing your own equipment insurance to understand how it coordinates with our transport coverage, ensuring complete protection throughout the moving process.
