How it works
A shipment plan, step by step
The better the details up front, the clearer the options. Here is how we work through a move with you.
Start with Your ShipmentShare the cargo details
Dimensions, weights, piece count, route and timing.
Review the load
We go through the details with you and ask about anything that is missing.
Match equipment
We look for a suitable trailer through carrier partners, subject to availability.
Work through requirements
Permits, route needs and escorts are reviewed for the specific move.
Coordinate the move
Pickup, loading access, delivery and scheduling come together with the carrier.
Equipment
The right deck for the cargo
Options that may be arranged through carrier partners, subject to availability and shipment review.
Flatbed
A level open deck for freight that loads from the side, top or rear, such as steel, lumber and building materials.
Step Deck
A lower main deck behind a raised front section, often used for cargo too tall for a standard flatbed.
RGN / Lowboy
A low deck with a neck that can detach on removable gooseneck models, so equipment can drive on from the front.
Double Drop
A low well between raised front and rear sections, used for tall cargo that fits within the well.
Extendable
A deck that telescopes to carry long cargo such as beams, poles and fabricated sections.
Multi-Axle
Added axles spread a heavy load across the trailer. Configurations vary widely by carrier and shipment.
