There are some services that people like us will most likely never have the need to use. Hauling huge, heavy, over-sized equipment is probably one of those. But if and when the need for heavy haulers should arise, then you definitely want to find the very best in the business.
You need a company that is experienced in moving large machinery and other types of equipment, and that has all of the flatbed and hotshot trailers necessary to do the job right. That’s when a company like Heavy Equipment Shipper can be so valuable. They completely understand the process, and the importance, of safe, timely, and efficient deliveries.
A big job like that involves more than just having the right trucks and trailers for moving massive loads. Whether your move is across town, across the country, or across the globe, doing it right requires in depth knowledge of all the rules, regulations, fees, and permits that are an absolute necessity for proper transportation.
This is especially true because the requirements for escort vehicles, weight limits, and available routes for transporting heavy equipment vary a great deal from state to state. But rest assured, Heavy Equipment Shipper can deliver to and from every state in the union, including Alaska and Hawaii.
Things can get even more complicated, and expensive, when shipping overseas. The logistics and regulations can cause any number of problems along the way. That’s why Heavy Equipment Shipper has a whole team that focuses only on international shipping to any of their over fifteen international destinations.
And we are not just talking about heavy machinery and construction equipment shipping either. There is almost nothing that they can’t handle hauling. Everything from busses to farm implements, or mobile homes to helicopters are all in a days work. Believe me, there is essentially no load or situation that they haven’t encountered before in their over twenty-five years of experience.
So, while we were investigating all of this information it occurred to me that might have been off base when I said at the beginning of this post that people like us might never need their services. That was before I realized that they can also transport boats and recreational vehicles. Having lived in both a motorhome and on a boat, we have actually considered hauling both of these several times looking back through the years.
We tossed around the idea of shipping our RV overseas a few times. It seemed like it might have been a great way to explore Europe, Australia, or South America in the comfort of our own home. There were many times that we imagined ourselves driving through the Alps, or the South of France, or Italy while camping along the way. We often thought that Australia, or maybe Patagonia, would be almost perfect for exploring by RV as well.
And a few years ago we considered transporting our boat from California to the Caribbean too, because from time to time we would miss our old home on the island of St. Croix down there. We thought that since we are empty nesters now, we could spend a lot more time island hopping than back when we lived there with our three kids and two jobs twenty years ago.
If we had known about Heavy Equipment Shipper back when we were thinking about making those moves our lives might have been quite different now. But we were scared away from shipping because the prospect of moving a thirty-eight foot boat or a thirty-two foot motorhome seemed to be overwhelmingly difficult and cost of the move prohibitive.
Now we know better.
