RGN Trailer Equipment Moving

Straightforward Process, Professional Results

We start by assessing your equipment and determining the right trailer configuration for safe transport. Different machines require different approaches – a lowboy trailer for tall equipment that needs height clearance, an RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailer for machines that load better from ground level, or specialized configurations for oversized loads.

We handle all permit applications and coordinate with local authorities when required. Our operators use proper loading techniques and secure everything according to DOT regulations. We plan routes that avoid problem areas and account for bridge clearances and weight restrictions.

During transport, we monitor conditions and maintain communication so you know when to expect delivery. At the destination, we position equipment exactly where you need it and ensure everything’s in the same condition it left in.

Equipment Moving That Fits Your Timeline

Our equipment moving services cover everything from compact excavators to large bulldozers, using lowboy trailers, Landoll trailers, and RGN configurations depending on your specific needs. We handle the hydraulic tilt trailer requirements for sensitive equipment and sliding axle trailer transport when weight distribution matters.

East Galway’s location in Saratoga County gives us access to major highways while understanding the local road conditions that can affect transport timing. We coordinate with your project schedule and plan deliveries around weather conditions that could impact safe transport.

Ground loading trailer services work for equipment that can drive on and off, while our hydraulic systems handle machines that need lifting assistance. We provide transport for high and tall equipment using low-profile configurations that maximize clearance while maintaining stability.

What types of trailers do you use for equipment moving in East Galway?

We use several trailer configurations depending on your equipment’s size, weight, and loading requirements. Lowboy trailers work best for tall equipment like excavators and bulldozers because the low deck height provides better clearance under bridges and overpasses.

RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers are ideal when your equipment needs to be driven directly onto the trailer from ground level. The detachable front section creates a ramp that makes loading easier for tracked machines or equipment with limited mobility. Landoll trailers with sliding axles help distribute weight more evenly for heavier loads.

For specialized situations, we have hydraulic tilt trailers that can adjust the deck angle for sensitive equipment or challenging loading conditions. We assess each job individually and recommend the trailer configuration that provides the safest, most efficient transport for your specific equipment.

We handle all permit applications as part of our equipment moving service. Most heavy equipment transport requires oversize permits from New York State DOT, and we’re familiar with the documentation and lead times required for approval.

Our established relationships with local officials in Saratoga County help move permits through the approval process efficiently. We know which routes require special permits, where weight restrictions apply, and when escort vehicles might be necessary for particularly large loads.

We also coordinate with local authorities when transport affects traffic patterns or requires temporary road restrictions. This includes working with town officials in East Galway when equipment needs to travel on local roads or when delivery timing needs to coordinate with other construction activities in the area.

Local equipment moves within East Galway and Saratoga County typically happen within 24-48 hours of scheduling, depending on permit requirements and weather conditions. Simple moves using standard lowboy trailers can often be completed same-day if permits aren’t required.

Oversized loads that need special permits usually require 3-5 business days lead time for permit processing. We provide realistic timelines upfront and keep you informed if weather or other factors might affect the schedule.

We plan routes and timing to minimize delays and coordinate with your project schedule. If you need equipment moved to meet a specific deadline, we work backward from that date to ensure all permits and logistics are handled with time to spare.

Yes, we handle all loading and unloading using proper techniques for each type of equipment. Our operators understand how different machines need to be handled – some can drive onto trailers under their own power, while others require winching or hydraulic assistance.

We use appropriate blocking, chaining, and tie-down methods according to DOT regulations and manufacturer recommendations. For equipment that can’t operate under its own power, we coordinate with crane services or use our hydraulic trailer systems to handle the loading safely.

At the delivery site, we position equipment exactly where you need it, whether that’s a specific location on your job site or staged for easy access by your operators. We also ensure the delivery area can accommodate our trailer configuration and that we won’t cause damage to existing surfaces or landscaping.
