Alberta shipments can involve busy city routes, long distances between communities, and access roads leading to farms or job sites. We plan around the load and the conditions at both ends.
- Highway 2 connects Calgary, Red Deer, and Edmonton.
- Highway 1 carries east–west traffic through southern Alberta.
- Highway 16 serves Edmonton and communities to the east and west.
- Highway 63 is a key route toward Fort McMurray
Tell us the exact pickup and delivery locations, especially for a rural property or active worksite. That helps us confirm access and arrange the right equipment for the job.

Alberta Equipment Shipping FAQs
Planning a move to, from, or within Alberta? Here are answers to common questions about trailers, loading, and delivery.
What kinds of equipment can you ship in Alberta?
We arrange transport for excavators, skid steers, dozers, wheel loaders, tractors, forklifts, telehandlers, rollers, and other construction, agricultural, and industrial equipment. We can also review attachments that need to travel with the machine. Send us the make, model, dimensions, and a few photos so we can plan the move.
Do you ship equipment throughout Alberta and across Canada?
Yes. We arrange moves within Alberta, between Alberta and other provinces, and between Canada and the United States. Whether your equipment is headed to Calgary, Edmonton, Red Deer, Fort McMurray, or a smaller community, the route and delivery site are reviewed when we prepare your quote.
Which trailer is right for my machine?
It depends on the equipment’s height, width, weight, ground clearance, and loading method. A flatbed or drop deck may work for some machines, while larger equipment may need an RGN or lowboy. A travelling axle trailer can help with certain machines that need a lower loading angle. We’ll review the machine and both sites before confirming a trailer.
How much does equipment shipping in Alberta cost?
The rate depends on the route, machine size and weight, trailer type, loading requirements, and site access. A move between major centres may be different from a delivery to a remote yard or job site. Oversize permits, escorts, or additional loading equipment can also affect the price. Send us the details and we’ll prepare a quote for your specific move.
What details should I send for a quote?
- Pickup and delivery addresses or site locations
- Equipment make and model
- Overall length, width, height, and weight
- Details of any buckets, blades, forks, or other attachments
- Whether the equipment runs, drives, and steers
- Available loading equipment and site access details
- Your preferred pickup and delivery dates
Photos of the equipment and loading areas can help us identify issues before dispatch.
Can you transport equipment that does not run?
Often, yes, but the loading plan needs to be confirmed first. Depending on the machine and site, a winch, forklift, crane, or other assistance may be required at pickup and delivery. Tell us whether it rolls, steers, and brakes, along with anything else that does not work.
Can you pick up from an Alberta job site, farm, dealer, or auction?
Yes. We coordinate pickups from job sites, farms, dealerships, auctions, equipment yards, and private properties. Please share the site contact, operating hours, ground conditions, and any restrictions on truck access. Those details are especially helpful for remote or active work sites.
What happens if my equipment needs an oversize permit?
We’ll review the loaded dimensions and route with the carrier and coordinate permit and escort requirements where applicable. Requirements may change when a shipment crosses a provincial or international border. Accurate measurements, including attachments, are important before the move is scheduled.
Is my equipment covered during transport?
We verify the transporting carrier’s cargo insurance before booking. Limits, exclusions, and terms vary, so tell us the equipment’s value and any special concerns when requesting a quote. We can review the available coverage and provide insurance documentation upon request.
How should I prepare equipment for pickup in Alberta?
Remove loose items, identify detachable attachments, and make sure the machine is accessible for loading. Let us know about leaks, mechanical issues, limited site access, or operating instructions. If the equipment can be driven, have someone familiar with it available when the carrier arrives. Weather and ground conditions should also be communicated before pickup.
How early should I book my equipment move?
Contact us once you know when the machine will be ready. Larger equipment, specialized trailers, remote locations, and permitted loads may need more planning. If your timeline is tight, send us the details and we’ll check the available options for your route.
