When would I need heavy haul transportation?

Heavy-haul transportation is required for moving equipment and machinery that exceed standard weight and size limits. Common types of equipment that necessitate heavy-haul transportation include:

Agricultural Machinery: Oversized farm equipment like combines, harvesters, and tractors.

Aircraft Parts: Small aircraft and oversized aircraft parts, such as wings or fuselage sections.

Construction Equipment: Large construction machinery such as excavators, bulldozers, cranes, and loaders.

Energy Sector Equipment: Wind turbine blades, tower sections, generators, and other large components of power plants. Additionally, heavy power transformers that are used in electrical substations.

Industrial Machinery: Oversized industrial machinery, including presses, generators, and manufacturing equipment.

Marine Equipment: Large vessels, boat components, and heavy marine equipment.

Mining Equipment: Components of drilling rigs, excavators, and crushers.

Modular Buildings: Prefabricated or modular structures, including mobile homes, sections of buildings, bridges, or other infrastructure buildings that exceed standard size limitations.

Oil and Gas Equipment: Compressors, wellhead equipment, refinery equipment, large pumps, and components of drilling rigs.

Railroad Equipment: Locomotives, rail cars, and other rail-related equipment, especially those that are out of service or being transferred for maintenance purposes.

These examples represent a diverse range of industries and equipment types that rely on heavy-haul transportation to ensure the safe and efficient movement of oversized or exceptionally heavy loads. The specialized nature of heavy-haul transport involves careful planning, the use of specialized trailers, and adherence to regulatory guidelines to ensure the safety of the cargo and the public during transit.
