Shipping a Tractor: Trailers, Over-Dimensional Charges, and Challenges
Shipping a tractor requires expertise, the right equipment, and a thorough understanding of the unique challenges involved. Here’s what you need to know:
- Choosing the Right Trailer: The type of trailer you need depends on the size and weight of your tractor. Options include flatbed, step-deck, and RGN trailers, each with its own capacity and loading requirements.
- Over-Dimensional Charges: Due to their size and weight, tractors often require special permits and escorts during transit. This can result in over-dimensional charges, which vary based on the tractor’s dimensions and the specific route taken.
- Route Planning: Shipping a tractor may involve navigating through height, weight, and route restrictions. A well-planned route that takes these restrictions into account is crucial for a successful shipment.
- Loading and Unloading: Loading and unloading a tractor requires expertise and the proper equipment to minimize the risk of damage. RGN trailers, for example, have a removable gooseneck that allows for easier loading and unloading of heavy equipment.
- Safety Measures: Shipping a tractor involves taking additional safety measures, such as securing the tractor with chains and straps to prevent shifting during transit. Properly securing the tractor is essential for ensuring a safe journey.
