When your project timeline depends on equipment showing up on schedule, you need transport that works. Your excavators, bulldozers, and specialized machinery arrive positioned correctly and ready for immediate deployment.
No more wondering if your equipment will clear that bridge or fit through tight access roads. Our lowboy trailers handle the height restrictions while our local route knowledge keeps things moving efficiently through Eagleville and surrounding areas.
Your equipment investment stays protected with proper securing methods and experienced operators who understand how different machines need to be handled during transport.
Emerson Excavating and Trucking has been moving equipment through the Capital Region for over two decades. We own our trailers and trucks, which means when you need equipment moved, we control the timeline.
Josh personally oversees most moves to ensure your valuable machinery gets the attention it deserves. We understand Eagleville’s access challenges and route restrictions because we work here every day.
Our equipment moving services extend throughout Saratoga, Warren, and Washington Counties, with the local expertise that comes from being invested in this community long-term.
First, we assess your equipment dimensions, weight, and destination to determine the right trailer configuration. We handle all necessary permits and route planning to avoid delays and complications.
Loading happens with proper equipment – whether that’s ramps, hydraulic systems, or specialized lifting gear. Your equipment gets secured using industry-standard tie-downs and positioning that prevent shifting during transport.
During transport, we monitor the route and communicate any updates. Upon arrival, we position your equipment exactly where you need it and ensure everything is ready for immediate use. The entire process focuses on protecting your investment while meeting your project timeline.

Our equipment moving services include lowboy trailers for tall equipment, RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers for easy loading, and Landoll trailers with sliding axles for specialized hauling needs. We handle everything from compact excavators to large bulldozers and specialized construction equipment.
In Eagleville’s terrain, proper equipment selection matters. Rocky conditions and elevation changes require trailers that can handle the load while navigating local road restrictions. Our fleet includes hydraulic tilt trailers for ground loading and specialized carriers for high-profile equipment.
We provide complete transport solutions including permits, route surveys, and escort services when required. Your equipment moves legally and safely through New York’s regulatory environment with all documentation handled properly.
We move excavators, bulldozers, backhoes, dump trucks, cranes, and other construction equipment that exceeds standard trailer height limits. Lowboy trailers work well for equipment up to 12 feet tall and weights up to 80,000 pounds depending on axle configuration.
The low deck design allows tall equipment to clear bridges and overhead obstacles that would stop standard flatbed transport. This includes equipment with extended booms, high cabs, or attachments that can’t be easily removed.
Our trailer selection depends on your specific equipment dimensions and weight. We assess each move individually to ensure the right trailer configuration for safe, legal transport through Eagleville and surrounding areas.
We handle all permit applications and routing requirements for oversize loads in New York. This includes state permits, local permits, and special authorizations for routes through restricted areas or bridges with weight limits.
New York has specific requirements for loads over certain dimensions, and the NY Thruway has different restrictions than local roads. We navigate these requirements and plan routes that comply with all regulations while minimizing delays.
Permit processing typically takes 3-5 business days, though emergency permits can sometimes be expedited. We coordinate timing with your project schedule and communicate any restrictions or routing requirements that might affect delivery timing.
Lowboy trailers have a fixed low deck that’s ideal for tall equipment but requires ramps or lifting equipment for loading. RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers have a detachable front section that creates a ramp for drive-on loading.
RGN trailers work well when your equipment can drive onto the trailer under its own power. This eliminates the need for additional loading equipment and can speed up the loading process. The detachable gooseneck also provides extra clearance for longer equipment.
Both trailer types handle heavy loads effectively, but the choice depends on your equipment’s mobility, available loading facilities, and specific transport requirements. We recommend the best option based on your equipment and site conditions.
Standard equipment moves typically need 3-5 days notice to handle permits and scheduling. Oversize loads requiring special permits may need a week or more depending on route complexity and regulatory requirements.
Emergency equipment moves can sometimes be accommodated with shorter notice, though this may limit routing options and increase costs. The key factors are equipment dimensions, destination accessibility, and permit requirements.
We recommend scheduling as early as possible, especially during peak construction season when demand is highest. Early scheduling also allows time for route surveys if needed and ensures your preferred delivery timing.
We provide equipment moving services throughout Saratoga, Warren, and Washington Counties, including Eagleville and surrounding communities. Our local knowledge covers route restrictions, bridge clearances, and access challenges specific to this region.
We also handle longer-distance moves to other parts of New York and neighboring states when needed. Interstate transport requires additional permits and coordination, but we manage the entire process including border crossing requirements.
Local moves within our service area typically offer more scheduling flexibility and faster response times since we’re familiar with the roads, restrictions, and local regulations that affect equipment transport.
Equipment safety starts with proper trailer selection and professional loading procedures. We use appropriate tie-down points, chains, and straps rated for your equipment’s weight and dimensions. All securing hardware gets inspected before and during transport.
Our operators understand how different types of equipment need to be positioned and secured. Track-driven equipment requires different handling than wheeled equipment, and we adjust our methods accordingly to prevent shifting or damage.
We also carry comprehensive insurance coverage and maintain detailed documentation of equipment condition before and after transport. This protects your investment and provides peace of mind throughout the moving process.
