Your expensive machinery gets where it needs to go without scratches, dents, or delays that cost you money. We handle everything from excavators and bulldozers to specialized construction equipment using proper DOT-approved trailers and tie-down methods.
No more worrying about whether your equipment will show up damaged or three days late. No more dealing with contractors who disappear when problems arise. Your machinery gets loaded professionally, transported safely, and delivered exactly when you need it.
When your equipment arrives ready to work, your entire project stays on schedule. Your crews stay productive, your deadlines get met, and your reputation stays intact.
We’ve been moving equipment throughout Ballston and Saratoga County for over 25 years. What started as a logging operation evolved into full-service excavation and equipment transport when we saw too many local contractors getting burned by unreliable service providers.
Josh oversees nearly every job personally because your expensive machinery deserves that level of attention. We’re not some fly-by-night operation – we own our equipment, know every back road in the area, and have built our reputation one successful move at a time.
Local property owners choose us because we understand Ballston’s unique challenges. Seasonal weight restrictions, narrow rural roads, and tricky jobsite access don’t surprise us. We plan for them.
First, we evaluate your equipment and jobsite access to determine the right trailer and transport method. We handle all DOT permits for oversized loads and plan the most efficient route that avoids weight restrictions and low bridges.
Our experienced drivers arrive with proper equipment – lowboy trailers, specialized tie-downs, and the knowledge to load your machinery safely. Every piece gets secured according to Department of Transportation standards, not guesswork.
During transport, we maintain communication about timing and any route adjustments. Your equipment gets delivered to the exact location you specified, unloaded carefully, and ready for immediate use. We don’t just drop and run – we make sure you’re satisfied before considering the job complete.

We transport excavators, bulldozers, compactors, generators, and specialized construction equipment throughout the Ballston area. Our service includes proper loading, DOT-compliant securing, route planning, and careful delivery to your specified location.
Ballston’s rural roads and seasonal restrictions require local knowledge that out-of-area companies simply don’t have. We know which routes handle heavy loads year-round, understand local permit requirements, and maintain relationships with area suppliers and contractors.
Our equipment transport service covers emergency moves when your project can’t wait, scheduled deliveries for planned construction phases, and auction pickups when you’ve purchased equipment from distant locations. Every move includes comprehensive insurance coverage and professional handling that protects your investment.
We handle everything from compact excavators to large bulldozers and specialized construction equipment. Our lowboy trailers accommodate equipment up to 150,000+ pounds, and we have the proper tie-down equipment for secure transport.
For oversized loads that exceed standard legal limits, we handle all DOT permit requirements and coordinate with local authorities for safe transport. The key is matching the right trailer to your specific equipment – something we determine during our initial evaluation.
If you’re unsure whether we can transport your particular piece of equipment, give us the dimensions and weight. We’ll tell you exactly what’s required and provide a clear quote with no surprises.
Every piece of equipment gets secured using DOT-approved tie-down methods specific to that type of machinery. We use proper chain grades, load binders, and blocking techniques that prevent shifting during transport without over-tightening that could cause damage.
Our drivers inspect the load at regular intervals during transport and understand how different road conditions affect equipment stability. We also carry comprehensive insurance that covers your equipment from the moment it’s loaded until it’s safely delivered.
Before loading, we document the equipment’s condition and walk through any specific handling requirements. Our goal is delivering your equipment in exactly the same condition it was when we picked it up.
Yes, we handle all permit requirements for oversized loads including width, height, and weight permits from the New York State Department of Transportation. We know which routes require special permits and coordinate with local authorities when escort vehicles are needed.
Permit requirements vary based on equipment dimensions and transport routes. Some moves require advance notice to DOT, while others need police escorts through certain areas. We handle these details so you don’t have to navigate the bureaucracy.
The permit process is included in our service – you don’t pay extra fees or deal with government offices. We submit applications, coordinate timing, and ensure full compliance with all regulations.
For standard equipment moves, we typically need 24-48 hours notice to coordinate proper trailers and permits. Emergency situations get priority scheduling when your project timeline can’t accommodate delays.
Oversized loads requiring special permits may need additional lead time, especially during busy construction seasons. We recommend calling as soon as you know you’ll need equipment moved rather than waiting until the last minute.
Our scheduling accommodates your project timeline, not the other way around. If you need equipment moved on a specific day to keep your project on track, we work backwards from that deadline to ensure everything happens on schedule.
We provide heavy equipment transport throughout Saratoga, Washington, and Warren Counties, with Ballston being central to our service area. This includes Ballston Spa, Saratoga Springs, Glens Falls, and the surrounding rural communities.
Our local knowledge extends to understanding seasonal weight restrictions on county roads, knowing which routes accommodate oversized loads, and maintaining relationships with area contractors and suppliers. This local expertise prevents delays and route complications.
For equipment transport beyond our primary service area, we coordinate with trusted partners to ensure the same level of professional service. Distance isn’t usually a problem – we focus on getting your equipment where it needs to go safely and on time.
Equipment transport costs depend on several factors: equipment size and weight, distance traveled, permit requirements, and any special handling needs. We provide upfront pricing with no hidden fees for permits, fuel surcharges, or loading time.
Local moves within the Ballston area typically cost less than long-distance transport, but the specific rate depends on your equipment and destination. Oversized loads requiring permits and escorts cost more than standard-sized equipment that fits on regular trailers.
We give you a clear quote before any work begins, including all permits, loading, transport, and delivery. You know exactly what you’re paying upfront, and that price doesn’t change unless you modify the scope of work.
