When your equipment arrives intact and on schedule, your project stays on track. You avoid the costly repairs that come from improper handling and the timeline delays that derail construction schedules.
Our transport process eliminates the guesswork. Your machinery gets secured according to Department of Transportation standards, not shortcuts that save time but risk damage.
You get clear communication about pickup and delivery windows, so you can coordinate with other contractors and keep your project moving forward predictably.
We’ve been serving Thurman and Warren County since 1997, building a reputation for reliable service in challenging terrain.
Josh Emerson is present on most jobs, ensuring your equipment gets the attention it deserves. We’re not a faceless company – you work directly with people who understand local conditions and care about your project success.
As a family business with deep local roots, our reputation depends on doing right by our neighbors and customers throughout the region.
First, we assess your equipment and transport requirements. Weight, dimensions, and destination determine the proper trailer type and securing method for safe transport.
Next, we handle permit requirements and route planning. Oversized loads need specific permits and approved routes – we manage this paperwork so you don’t have to navigate regulatory requirements.
Our operators secure your equipment using proper tie-down techniques and DOT-approved methods. Every piece gets individual attention based on its specific transport needs, not a one-size-fits-all approach.

We transport excavators, bulldozers, compactors, and specialized construction equipment throughout New York State. Our fleet includes trailers sized for different equipment types and weight requirements.
Thurman’s terrain presents unique challenges that we understand from years of local experience. Rocky conditions, seasonal access limitations, and rural road restrictions all factor into proper route planning and equipment selection.
Insurance coverage protects your valuable machinery during transport. We maintain comprehensive coverage because we understand the replacement costs of modern construction equipment and the project delays that equipment damage creates.
Heavy equipment transport costs depend on several factors including equipment size, weight, distance, and permit requirements. In New York, rates typically range from $3.50 to $8.00 per mile for specialized equipment transport.
Oversized loads requiring permits and escort vehicles increase costs, but proper handling prevents the much higher costs of equipment damage. We provide detailed estimates upfront so you can budget accurately for your project needs.
Local transport within Warren County often costs less than long-distance moves, and we can coordinate multiple equipment moves to maximize efficiency and reduce per-unit costs.
New York requires oversize permits for equipment exceeding standard road dimensions. The state Department of Transportation issues these permits, and transport is restricted to specific hours – typically from 30 minutes before sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset on weekdays.
We handle the permit application process because we understand the requirements and can process them efficiently. Different equipment types and routes may need different permits, and we ensure all regulatory requirements are met.
Permit costs and processing times vary based on equipment dimensions and transport routes, but proper permits prevent costly delays and legal issues that can shut down your project.
Every piece of equipment gets secured according to Department of Transportation standards using proper tie-down techniques specific to that equipment type. We don’t use generic securing methods that might work for some equipment but risk damage to others.
Our operators understand the balance points, stress points, and proper anchor locations for different machinery. Excavators require different securing techniques than bulldozers or compactors, and we adjust our methods accordingly.
We inspect all tie-downs and securing equipment before transport and monitor them during delivery. Your equipment’s value demands professional handling, not shortcuts that save time but risk expensive damage.
We offer emergency and rush delivery options when project deadlines are threatened by unexpected delays. Construction schedules don’t always go according to plan, and equipment needs can change quickly.
Our local presence in Thurman means faster response times compared to companies based hours away. We understand that equipment downtime costs money and delays entire project timelines.
Rush transport may require premium pricing due to permit expediting and schedule adjustments, but we work within your timeline constraints whenever possible to keep your project moving forward.
We transport excavators, bulldozers, compactors, specialized construction tools, and other heavy machinery used in construction and excavation projects. Our trailer fleet includes different sizes to match various equipment requirements.
Each equipment type has specific transport considerations – track machines require different handling than wheeled equipment, and specialized attachments may need removal or special securing techniques.
We assess each piece individually rather than using generic transport methods. Your equipment’s specific dimensions, weight distribution, and transport requirements determine the proper trailer type and securing approach.
We maintain comprehensive insurance coverage for equipment transport because we understand the replacement costs of modern construction machinery. Equipment damage doesn’t just mean repair costs – it means project delays and lost productivity.
Our coverage protects your equipment’s full value during loading, transport, and unloading. We provide insurance documentation and certificates as needed for your records and project requirements.
Additional coverage options are available for extremely high-value equipment or specialized machinery. We review coverage limits with you upfront so there are no surprises if issues arise during transport.
