Equipment trailer guide
Different machines call for different loading methods and deck heights. Browse common trailer options below. If you're unsure what fits, send us your equipment details and we'll help determine a suitable option.
A level open deck for equipment that can be loaded by ramp, forklift, or crane and fits the planned route.
Forklifts, compact equipment, attachments, and crated machinery.
A removable gooseneck can allow machinery to be driven onto the lower deck from the front, depending on the trailer and site.
Excavators, dozers, loaders, and larger construction equipment.
The main deck sits below the front section, providing more room for certain taller loads than a standard flatbed.
Telehandlers, lifts, tractors, and taller industrial equipment.
Sometimes called a Landoll-style trailer, its deck can lower toward the ground for loading equipment that needs a gentler angle.
Forklifts, lifts, rollers, and equipment with limited ground clearance.
An extendable lower deck can accommodate certain longer equipment or components while providing a lower loading height.
Long machinery, structural components, and oversized equipment.
Send us the equipment's make, model, dimensions, weight, and pickup and delivery locations. We'll review the loading requirements.
Photos illustrate trailer types. Dimensions shown are general examples. Actual trailer specifications, capacity, permits, and route clearance must be confirmed for each shipment.
