Specialized Equipment for Every Load
No two shipments are alike, so neither is our equipment. We invest in top-tier trailers designed for diverse dimensions and weight requirements. Whether it’s a bulldozer or wind turbine blades, we match the tool to the task.
Tri-Axle Step Deck Trailers
Ideal for mid-sized machinery, these trailers offer versatility. A 53-foot deck and 48,000-lb capacity handle compactors or excavators with ease. Hydraulic ramps simplify loading, reducing downtime.

Need to move a 205-foot girder? Our removable gooseneck (RGN) trailers adapt. Adjustable decks accommodate lengths up to 110 feet, while tandem axles distribute weight safely.
Landoll Trailers for Easy Loading
Low-profile designs make loading effortless. Hydraulic tilt beds and slide-out extensions cater to odd-shaped equipment. Perfect for tight job sites or time-sensitive hauling.
| Trailer Type | Max Length | Payload Capacity | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tri-Axle Step Deck | 53 ft | 48,000 lbs | Bulldozers, compactors |
| Stretch RGN | 110 ft | 150,000 lbs | Wind turbines, girders |

Navigating New Jersey’s Heavy Haul Regulations
Understanding local regulations is critical for smooth transport operations. We simplify compliance, ensuring your project meets all legal requirements. From permits to route planning, our team handles the details.
Permit Requirements for Oversized Loads
Not all permits are created equal. Single-trip options work for one-time moves, while annual permits suit frequent shipments. Emergency transports qualify for expedited approvals—we secure them in under 72 hours.
- Standard Permits: Cover loads up to 80,000 lbs with basic DOT review.
- Superload Permits: Required for weights exceeding 150,000 lbs; involve engineering reviews.
Weight and Size Restrictions
State laws enforce strict restrictions to protect infrastructure. Axle spacing determines maximum weight allowances, while height caps prevent overhead collisions. Our planners cross-check every dimension against NJDOT databases.
| Category | Max Weight | Max Height |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | 80,000 lbs | 13’6″ |
| Oversized | 150,000+ lbs | 16’ (with escorts) |
Escort Vehicle Protocols
Safety demands extra visibility for massive loads. Escort vehicles with flashing lights alert traffic when widths exceed 12 feet. We provide trained pilots who coordinate with state patrols.
“Their escorts navigated a 14-foot-wide turbine through Newark without a hitch.” —Tri-State Energy Co.
Night moves or urban routes may require additional vehicles. We assess each job to determine the right support.
