Lowboy Trailer Services Dresden

Complete Equipment Transport Solutions

Our equipment moving services handle everything from compact excavators to large construction cranes throughout Dresden and surrounding areas. Lowboy trailers accommodate tall equipment that standard flatbeds can’t handle, while RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers provide ground-level loading for tracked machinery.

Dresden’s construction market demands reliable equipment transport that works around seasonal challenges. Spring mud season, winter frost conditions, and the clay-heavy soils common in Washington County all affect how equipment gets loaded and moved. We account for these local factors in every transport job.

Hydraulic tilt trailers, Landoll sliding axle systems, and specialized ground loading equipment ensure we can handle whatever machinery your project requires. From construction sites to equipment auctions, your valuable assets get the professional handling they deserve.

What types of equipment can you transport on lowboy trailers?

We transport excavators, bulldozers, backhoes, cranes, loaders, dump trucks, and other construction machinery using lowboy and RGN trailers. Lowboy trailers work well for equipment up to 12 feet tall, while RGN trailers provide ground-level loading for tracked machines that can drive directly onto the trailer.

Our fleet includes various trailer configurations to handle different equipment sizes and weights. Landoll sliding axle trailers accommodate longer loads, while hydraulic tilt trailers help with loading equipment that has limited mobility. We match the right trailer to your specific equipment requirements.

Permit requirements depend on your equipment’s dimensions and the transport route through Dresden and Washington County. We handle all necessary permits before your equipment moves, including oversize load permits, route surveys, and any special restrictions that apply to your specific machinery.

New York State has specific regulations for equipment transport, including timing restrictions and escort requirements for certain loads. We manage these details so your equipment moves legally and safely without delays. Our experience with local regulations prevents the complications that can arise from improper permitting.

Lowboy trailers have a fixed deck height that sits close to the ground, making them ideal for tall equipment that needs maximum height clearance during transport. The low profile helps avoid bridge and overpass restrictions while maintaining stability during transport.

RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers have a detachable front section that creates a ramp for ground-level loading. This works perfectly for tracked equipment like excavators and bulldozers that can drive directly onto the trailer under their own power. RGN trailers also handle awkwardly shaped or extra-long equipment more easily than standard lowboys.

Dresden’s seasonal weather requires specific precautions during equipment transport. Winter conditions mean accounting for frost, ice, and snow that can affect loading and securing procedures. Spring mud season impacts access to job sites and loading areas.

We use professional tie-down systems designed for heavy equipment, including chains, straps, and blocking that secure machinery regardless of weather conditions. Hydraulic systems get protected from freezing, and exposed components receive appropriate covering when necessary. Our drivers understand how local weather affects transport safety and adjust procedures accordingly.

We provide equipment moving services throughout Dresden, Washington County, and surrounding areas including Saratoga and Warren Counties. Our local knowledge extends to understanding the specific challenges of each area – from Dresden’s clay soils to the elevation changes throughout the region.

Route planning considers local road conditions, seasonal restrictions, and the most efficient paths for oversized loads. We’ve built relationships with local authorities and understand permit requirements for different municipalities. Whether your equipment needs to move within Dresden or to job sites throughout upstate New York, we handle the logistics professionally.

Equipment moving scheduling depends on several factors including permit requirements, route complexity, and seasonal conditions in Dresden. Simple local moves with standard equipment might be scheduled with a few days notice, while oversized loads requiring special permits need more advance planning.

Spring and fall are typically busier seasons for equipment transport as construction activity peaks. Winter moves are possible but may require additional time for weather-related delays. We recommend scheduling as early as possible, especially for complex moves or during peak construction seasons. This ensures we can secure the right trailer, handle permits properly, and coordinate with your project timeline effectively.
