Every heavy equipment move in Chestertown comes with specialized rigging equipment, professional loading and unloading, and secure transport vehicles. We handle excavators, bulldozers, cranes, and industrial machinery of all sizes.
Chestertown’s rural roads and seasonal weather conditions require local knowledge and proper equipment. We understand the challenges of moving heavy machinery through the Adirondack region, from narrow country roads to seasonal weight restrictions.

We move heavy equipment ranging from compact excavators to large industrial machinery weighing over 50 tons. Our specialized transport vehicles and rigging equipment can handle excavators, bulldozers, cranes, and manufacturing equipment of various sizes.
The key factors are the equipment’s dimensions, weight, and destination accessibility. We assess each piece individually to determine the right transport method and route. Some oversized loads require special permits and escort vehicles, which we coordinate as part of our service.
If you’re unsure whether we can move your specific equipment, give us the dimensions and weight. We’ll tell you exactly what’s involved and provide a clear quote for the complete service.
Equipment protection starts with proper rigging and securing techniques. We use professional-grade chains, straps, and blocking specifically designed for heavy machinery transport. Every piece gets secured according to its weight distribution and center of gravity.
Our transport vehicles have the right deck height and weight capacity for your equipment. We don’t overload trailers or use makeshift solutions. The equipment rides on vehicles designed specifically for heavy hauls with proper tie-down points and load distribution.
Before transport, we inspect your equipment and document its condition. We also plan routes that avoid low bridges, weight-restricted roads, and other hazards that could cause problems. This preparation prevents damage and ensures safe delivery.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and regulatory requirements for oversized loads in New York State. This includes overweight permits, oversize permits, and any special routing requirements based on your equipment’s dimensions.
New York has specific regulations for heavy hauls, including restricted travel times, designated routes, and escort vehicle requirements. We know these regulations and ensure full compliance for every move. You don’t have to research permit requirements or deal with state agencies.
We also coordinate with local authorities when moves affect traffic or require temporary road restrictions. This includes advance notifications and any necessary police escorts for extremely large loads.
