What Equipment Types and Trailers Do We Use?
When shipping a compact track loader, it's essential to choose the right equipment and trailer. Prairie Auto Transport uses specialized trailers to accommodate various types of heavy equipment:
-
RGN Trailers: Removable Gooseneck (RGN) trailers are perfect for large equipment as they allow for easy loading and unloading.
-
Step Deck Trailers: These trailers offer a lower deck height and are ideal for taller equipment that exceeds the height limit on standard flatbeds.
Providing detailed dimensions and photos of your equipment during the quoting process helps us determine the best trailer type and any special handling requirements for oversize units.
