How to Load a Swather for Easy Road Transportation
- 5 min read

Tractor Transport understands the need for ensuring that loading and shipping of your swather are done professionally, safely, and quickly. We understand each swather is unique in its own way and provide the most appropriate loading solution for specific jobs. For example, Tractor Transport has dedicated, seasoned logisticians and expert truckers who handle equipment during loading and offloading. For motorized swathers, loading is done using ramps. With the help of a spotter, the trucker drives the swather to the flatbed trailer. They then follow a well-established securing protocol to firmly tie down the farm implements for safe hauling.
Due to their versatile and easy loading from any side, flatbed trailers are commonly used to transport swathers. If you want to transport a swather that is comparatively bigger than a previous job, then we have a different flatbed with trailer outriggers that can comfortably fit and haul extra-large farm implements.

How Tractor Transport Hauls Your Swather
Tractor Transport hauls your swather in a way that ensures maximum safety of your machinery from any physical damage. We first analyze the equipment to be transported and evaluate the method that shall serve best for the particular case. The transportation of wider loads may require specialized equipment. For example, in the case of the comparatively wider self-propelled swathers, an alternative of considering detaching the cab from the swather is recommended. The two parts may then be analyzed for an option of combining them in one vessel or shipping each in separate means. Hauling of the swather may then be done by utilizing RGN platforms. Some RGN are designed with special features that give us an extra playroom for loading the swather.
