Lowboy trailers are commonly used for transporting tall and heavy equipment due to their lower deck height.

Flatbed Trailers
Flatbeds provide versatility for transporting equipment that does not exceed height restrictions.
Suitable for:
Step Deck Trailers
Step deck trailers offer additional height clearance while accommodating a wide range of equipment types.
Multi-Axle and Specialized Trailers
Extremely heavy or oversized loads may require customized trailer configurations to meet transportation requirements.
The Heavy Equipment Transport Process
Equipment Assessment
The transportation process begins with evaluating the equipment’s dimensions, weight, and shipping requirements.
Route Planning
Oversized loads often require detailed route analysis to avoid restrictions such as low bridges, narrow roads, and weight limitations.
Permit Acquisition
Many heavy haul shipments require permits from state transportation agencies before movement can begin.
Secure Loading
Professional operators use industry-approved loading techniques, chains, straps, and securement systems to protect equipment during transit.
Transportation and Delivery
Experienced drivers transport equipment safely while adhering to federal safety regulations and delivery schedules.
Several factors influence transportation pricing.
Equipment Size and Weight
Larger and heavier machinery generally requires specialized trailers and permits, increasing shipping costs.
Distance
Long-distance transport affects fuel consumption, driver time, and overall logistics expenses.
Route Complexity
Remote destinations, difficult access points, and oversized load restrictions can impact pricing.
Permit Requirements
Some states require special permits, escorts, or route approvals for oversized loads.
Loading and Unloading Requirements
Equipment requiring cranes, winches, or specialized handling may involve additional costs.
Proper preparation helps ensure a smooth shipping experience.
Clean the Equipment
Removing dirt and debris allows for accurate inspections before transport.
Secure Loose Components
Remove or secure detachable accessories, attachments, and tools.
Check Fluid Levels
Inspect for leaks and ensure machinery is in transport-ready condition.
Document Equipment Condition
Photographs and inspection reports provide useful documentation before shipping.

They gave me the best price out of 30 other quotes… then car was picked up next day to my surprise. To finish it off they beat their expected drop off by 2 days. Beyond satisfied. Would definitely recommend!
I was lucky that this company helped me. I called BKK TRANSPORT and they had a driver available same day. I will use them again in the future.
It’s easy to get started with your next heavy equipment transport. Just follow these three steps:
You can transport heavy equipment with conventional trailers designed for standard cars or trucks. It requires specialized equipment and the right haulers to transport your industrial vehicles and equipment effectively and efficiently from their origin to their destination. At BKK Transport, we go the extra mile to deliver for our customers thanks to our door-to-door service promise. As the name implies, we’ll literally pick up any heavy equipment from your yard or lot and deliver it to its final destination. It’s part of the value-added difference of working with BKK Transport for your equipment hauling needs.
Other key benefits of working with BKK Transport include:
There is a lot that goes into ensuring safe and successful heavy equipment transport. The means of transport may vary from company to company. There are various options such as flatbed trucks, trailers, and containers. We will suggest the ideal method for heavy equipment transport based on your requirements. Depending on the type of equipment being shipped, the cargo might require special care.
While opting for heavy equipment shipping, don’t hesitate to ask the shipping company about the mode of transport they will be using.
Excavator transport for a short distance will apply a flat rate of $250 and up. And for the long-distance minimum $1 per mile and up to $25 per mile depending on dimensions, weight, and other technicalities such as checking the oversize and overweight permits.
Heavy haul trucking includes equipment that is beyond the conventional dimensions. Equipment that is way beyond the regular weight and size falls under this category. Any consignment that exceeds the standard legal limitations for transport fright due to its weight or size needs to be shipped via heavy haul trucking.
Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ian worked really hard to find a driver for me at the last minute when my other company flopped. Sadly, the contractor (FamCo) was 3 days late with my delivery, unresponsive, dishonest about his location (I had a tracker on my vehicle unbeknownst to him) and stole items out of my vehicle. The transport company guaranteed a delivery date and arrived THREE DAYS LATE with items missing from my vehicle!!!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I'm a private buyer and purchased a couple motorcycles. I shipped 2 different motorcycles from two different dealerships and had zero issues. Ian kept great communication and reached out to the sellers to make sure everyone was informed and ready to go. Had the best price as well. Will definitely use again.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The transportation service is efficient and has a good price.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Absolutely fantastic service.. I highly recommend this company, fast service, very reasonable rate.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very fast and reliable service. Have used this company many times.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This company has great reviews. I read them too. Perhaps there was a time, in the past, they deserved the good reviews. I'm telling you this is no longer the case. After being assigned to this 3rd party company thru Shiply and doing my research I went with these guys and THEIR offer. I paid my deposit instantly.was today they would contact me I. 2 to 4 days...nope it was 6 days before any contact. Was told the driver would contact me 4 to 12 hours in advanced..this is when it gets ugly. I was called by a person from BKK told me someone would be here with 4 hours however, there is now a $250 extra charge that must be paid by time my 2 motorcycles were dropped off....wait what? After what turned into several conversations with at least 3 employees I was told i have to pay the extra $250 because they're bringing a different trailer and the original contract did not matter to them and that the would keep my deposit and charge me an extra 150 to cancel a contract they wrote and signed off on. I hate bashing companies...hate it. This is 100% buyer beware with these guys. My next stop is Shiply who has also not Contacted me in the time they dictated...awesome. I will never use either of these companies. As long as you don't mind a tremendous amount of stress, horrid communication, being strong armed and threatened, being treated horribly for services you're paying for and then doing everything that comes with credit card disputes they these 2 companies are awesome and just what you're looking for.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed a car transported from Illinois to Florida, went to the BKK Transport website and filled out my information and got a very reasonable quote. I got an email confirming my reservation and a call a few days before the car was picked up to confirm. The business was in constant communication before the car was picked up and after to provide time estimates of when the driver would be picking up the vehicle and then vehicle drop off. Great service, stress free. Highly recommend and would use again.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Did not use themPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Received quotes from several transport brokers, including BKK through a website. Their price was the most competitive. Understanding a little about how the business worked, I knew my request to pickup a vehicle on the east coast and bring it to the Midwest would be posted on a board for drivers to see and accept based on the bid. After a week, due to location and routes, I offered to increase the bid and a driver accepted within a couple of days. During this time, other brokers were circling back with me and offering to pick it up "immediately" with a slightly higher price. Going to another broker does not help. It will be posted on the same boards as your first broker's and only causes confusion. Be patient and know that when a driver is available that will be near your pickup area, they will check the boards if they have space/availability. Once the quote was accepted, I received the driver's proof of liability insurance and their contact information immediately. My vehicle was delivered on time, as promised, and in the same condition as it was picked up. My only reason for knocking off a star is because I was the one that had to check with BKK for updates.
