Choose Tractor Transport to ship your farm spreader. Smaller spreaders can ship on a flatbed, if you can load from a dock. Otherwise, you might have to forklift them aboard. Medium-size spreaders can be backed aboard a step-deck trailer using ramps. Whatever size farm spreader you need to haul, Tractor Transport has the resources to get it done right.
Tractor Transport In Action
RGN trailers are perfect for self-propelled spreaders. You can lower the neck on an RGN and drive your spreader onboard. Larger pull-type spreaders, like closed-tank spreaders, also ship aboard RGN trailers due to height restrictions. With closed-tank spreaders, you back them on board the RGN using your tractor. Tractor Transport has all types of trailers ready to haul your spreaders. Call now for a farm spreader shipping cost. (877) 373-0109
How to Ship Farm Spreaders with Tractor Transport
When you speak with a Tractor Transport logistics agent, we get all the details to provide you with a quality farm spreader shipping experience. Spreaders are used to disperse fertilizer, manure and compost. Self-propelled fertilizer spreaders are called “floaters.” To disperse fertilizer in a wide area, they ride high above the fields on large rubber tires.
Pull-type spreaders come in three variations: box spreaders, flail spreaders and closed-tank spreaders. Box spreaders and flail spreaders disperse semi-solid material. Closed-tank spreaders distribute liquid manure. Whatever type of spreader you need to ship, Tractor Transport will find the best driver, truck, and trailer to get it hauled safely.
Always there when we need them!!! We're tooling up a farm in Virginia and initially used 3 other businesses across the country before I ran into Tractor Transport. Brian has been our representative and is the most responsive, accurate and overall better than any other agents I have worked with.
A+ Rated and BBB Accredited
This was our first time using equipment transport services. Julian did a great job getting my New Holland TC55DA from Marietta, GA to King George, VA just in time! Driver was knowledgable and patient. I recommend this service.

TRACTOR TRANSPORT OFFERS AN EXTENSIVE RANGE OF TRAILER CHOICES TO HAUL YOUR AIR SEEDERS
FLATBED
TRANSPORT SERVICES
Our most versatile and commonly used trailer by far is the standard flatbed trailer, made evident by the sheer number of them on the road every day. A great aspect of flatbed trailer shipping is the stability of the bed and the fact that these common carriers come in a wide variety of sizes and dimensions. A flatbed trailer, as the name suggests, is marked by a flat trailer surface that's able to be loaded with stability by balancing and securing cargo on the outside edges of the trailer.

RGN (REMOVABLE GOOSENECK)
TRANSPORT SERVICES
The Removable Gooseneck (RGN) trailer has a detachable front end that turns the trailer into a ramp. Past the detachable section of the trailer, RGNs are equipped with a double drop formation that lends the payload an extra amount of height, usually around 12 extra inches. The variable nature of the RGN trailer allows it to accommodate cargo that is more difficult for less flexible trailers. Referred to as a "detach", the RGN is ideal for transporting less than standard cargo, equipment that is longer, taller, or otherwise a non-normal size.

EXT. RGN (REMOVABLE GOOSENECK)
TRANSPORT SERVICES
Similar to the standard Removable Gooseneck Trailer, the extended RGN has an added section for additional length and capacity for particularly tricky transport jobs. When cargo is too long for the standard Removable Gooseneck (RGN), we sometimes employ the extended RGN. Like the standard RGN, the back portion of the stretch RGN is removable, creating a convenient ramp. The extended RGN has a versatile extension feature that allows it to meet an increased number of length requirements for cargo.

DROP DECK
TRANSPORT SERVICES
A drop deck, or "step deck" trailer resembles a standard flatbed model with a single drop in order to give the trailer the capacity for more cargo height. This is especially advantageous when the payload exceeds the standard height requirements for a regular flatbed. This is especially advantageous when the payload exceeds the standard height requirements for a regular flatbed. For especially large or oddly sized pieces of equipment, the drop deck trailers present a uniquely ideal solution; tractors, farming combines and large construction and industrial equipment.

EXT. DROP DECK
TRANSPORT SERVICES
When a job necessitates a trailer that can carry an irregularly long piece of equipment or cargo, we employ the extended drop deck trailer. Like a flatbed with either a single or a double attached gooseneck, the extended drop deck gives the user capacity for additional height and length to meet the needs of a specific cargo load. Typically, the extended RGN is more flexible than the standard RGN, so it's only used when absolutely necessary.

LOWBOY
TRANSPORT SERVICES
A lowboy is one of the lowest trailers to the ground, as its name suggests. Many heavy hauling tasks are carried out with the help of the lowboy trailer because of its use for extremely large, heavy, and oversized or over-dimension equipment. Typically when you see a sign that says "Oversize Load" on the interstate, the cargo being hauled is done so with a lowboy trailer. Many shippers use lowboy models as their top choice for these jobs due to their capacity to carry extremely heavy weights of cargo, and their stability as the lowest, off-the-ground option.

Tractor Transport Knows Fork Lifts
Forklifts are industrial powered machines used for moving and lifting loads and other types of materials over short distances. They are instrumental in residential capabilities to support the building of new facilities, help in maintenance works, and work in loading docks and to perform crucial roles in industries and warehouse. In warehousing and manufacturing forklift is extremely vital equipment for moving loads, packing and moving materials from one place to another.
Different forklifts have rates for different load weight specifications and specific center of gravity. Since forklifts are crucial elements in distribution centers and warehouses, it is essential to make the structure designs able to accommodate the forklifts efficient and safe movement.
