1 Step
To have your heavy equipment shipped, we advise you to request a quote some time in advance.
Carrier companies specializing in such shipments usually have their routes scheduled a few weeks in advance, so you will need some time to negotiate the details and provide the shipping agent with all the details like the addresses, equipment peculiarities and dimensions.

When you know the exact shipping date and have all the driver’s details including his name and phone number, it’s time to get the vehicle ready for shipping.

Of course, you will know the estimated drop-off date in advance, but a day before delivery, the driver will call you to negotiate the exact time.
When the equipment is loaded off the trailer, we advise you to check all the details of the equipment if it was disassembled to make sure everything was transported and then sign the Condition report. After shipping, you can also leave a review to the shipping company to help other customers make the right choice.
We’ve got some answers to the questions you may have. In case you haven’t found the proper solution, don’t hesitate to contact us.
The perfect time to book the transportation is a month ahead of the available shipping dates. But you can request and start planning the shipment as soon as you know the addresses for pick up and drop off and the vehicle you will ship (in case you are planning to buy it).
