Frequently Asked Questions

Can you tow a truck or heavy plant and equipment?

Trucks and heavy equipment can be towed, yes. However, some transport companies may have limits on the size and weight of the items they will transport. Always enquire as to whether they have experience with transporting heavy equipment (as opposed to regular vehicles only) and ask for details about the loading and transport process.
How many tie-downs does a piece of equipment require for transport?

This will depend on the equipment as well as the vehicle transporting it. Many professionals live by the ‘no fewer than four’ rule. A qualified transport company will know what is required to properly secure the equipment. As always, it’s important to ask questions of your driver if you have any doubts about the safety of your equipment during travel.
How do I prepare equipment for transport?

There are a lot of little things one can do to prepare based on the exact type of equipment they’re transporting. But there are a few rules everyone can benefit from. First, make sure all doors and covers are securely latched. It’s important they don’t blow open on the road. Second, clean it up as best you can. This makes the tie-down process easier and any damage that may occur will be more obvious if the vehicle or equipment is clean.
