Moving heavy equipment is not a routine shipment. Excavators, bulldozers, cranes and industrial machinery require the right trailer, the right permits and a carrier that understands oversize and overweight regulations across every state on the route.
Easy Peasy USA Logistics coordinates heavy equipment transport nationwide using lowboys, RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers, extendable flatbeds and multi-axle configurations. Whether your load is a single mini-excavator or a 100,000 lb crawler crane, we match the right equipment, secure the permits, arrange escort vehicles when required, and keep you informed at every step.
As a licensed FMCSA freight broker (USDOT 3990628 · MC 1496963), we work with a vetted network of operators who specialize in heavy haul. Every shipment is fully insured and tracked door-to-door — from job sites and dealerships to ports, auctions and rental yards.
Common questions
How much does it cost to ship heavy equipment?
Heavy equipment shipping cost depends on distance, weight, dimensions, route restrictions, fuel rates and whether escort vehicles or special permits are required. A 20,000 lb mini-excavator going 500 miles is very different from a 90,000 lb crawler crane needing oversize permits across multiple states. Send us your details for an exact quote — usually within a few hours.
Do I need special permits to ship heavy equipment?
Yes, almost always. Any load that exceeds standard legal dimensions (typically 8'6" wide, 13'6" tall, 80,000 lbs gross) requires oversize/overweight permits in every state it travels through. We handle all permit coordination as part of the quote — you don't have to deal with state DOT offices.
How long does heavy equipment transport take?
Standard equipment moves at about 500 miles per day. Oversize loads can be slower because they're restricted to daylight hours, can't travel weekends in some states, and may need escort vehicles. Expect 5-10 business days for cross-country oversize moves, 1-3 days for regional shipments.
What trailers do you use for heavy equipment?
Depends on the load. Lowboys handle 40,000-80,000 lbs with low deck height for tall equipment. RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers allow drive-on/drive-off loading. Extendable flatbeds handle longer loads up to 53'+. Multi-axle configurations distribute weight for the heaviest equipment.
Is my equipment insured during transport?
Yes. Every shipment is covered by cargo insurance with policy details provided before dispatch. We only work with operators who carry adequate coverage for the value and weight of your equipment.
Can you handle international shipments?
Our core service is domestic US transport. For international moves we coordinate the US leg (to a port or border) and connect you with our freight forwarding partners for the international portion.
