Forage Harvester Equipment Shipping Services

Your Tractor Transport Forage Harvester Experience

We can move any type of forage harvester, from flywheel harvesters that use the same method in a spinning motion to older models that are manually operated. We can also ship other types of self-propelled harvesters include sugar-cane harvesters, potato harvesters, and rice harvesters. We know that these heavy machines are a vital part of your business, and we're here to make sure that your machinery arrives safely and on time.

Our logistics specialists will collect information about your harvester, determining whether it's a self-propelled harvester that requires an oversized load escort on an RGN or lowboy trailers. Pull-type harvesters, however, can be shipped on step-deck trailers or RGN trailers. We ensure that your load is properly balanced and travels on a trailer rated for the load. You'll receive a custom quote, with all paperwork covered, from wide load papers to weigh station information and even customers paperwork – we ship across North America. When you're ready to get started, give us a call at (877) 373-0109 for a FREE, no-obligation quote.

When Hauling Forage Harvesters;

Choose Tractor Transport to ship your forage harvester. Self-propelled forage harvesters usually travel as an oversize load. An RGN or a lowboy trailer work the best, because you can drive the machine aboard. Sometimes you’ll have to remove your harvester’s wheels to get within width restrictions.

Pull-type harvesters usually are shipped aboard step-deck trailers or RGN trailers. Most step-deck trailers come with ramps that allow you to drive your smaller harvester aboard. The incline to drive aboard a step deck trailer is greater than the incline on an RGN trailer or lowboy lowboy, which limits the size of the equipment you can ship on a step deck trailer.

Tractor Transport Offers an Extensive Range of Trailer Choices To Haul Your Air Seeders:

FLATBED TRANSPORTATION 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.

Flatbed Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 48,000 pounds
Max Length 53 ft.
Max Width 8.5 ft.
Max Height 8.5 ft.

RGN (REMOVABLE GOOSENECK) TRANSPORT SERVICES

RGN Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 42,000+ pounds
Main Deck Length 29 ft.
Well Width 8.5 ft.
Legal Height Limit 11.6 ft.

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.

EXTENDED 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.

Extended RGN Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 150,000+ pounds
Main Deck Length 29 ft. - 65 ft.
Well Width 8.5 ft.
Legal Height Limit 11.6 ft.

DROP DECK TRANSPORT SERVICES

Drop Deck Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 48,000 pounds
Max Length 53 ft.
Max Width 8.5 ft.
Max Height 11 ft.

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.

EXTENDED 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.

Extended Drop Deck Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 45,000 pounds
Max Length 63 ft.
Max Width 8.5 ft.
Max Height 10 ft.

LOWBOY TRANSPORT SERVICES

Lowboy Trailer Specifications:
Max Weight: 40,000 pounds
Max Length 24 ft.
Max Width 8.5 ft.
Max Height 14 ft.

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.

Choose Tractor Transport to Haul Your Forage Harvester!

Forage harvesters cut plants, like grass or corn, to make into silage for livestock. Harvesters reap the plant material, then disperse it into an accompanying wago. Harvested forage is stored in oxygen-free silos to ferment before feeding.

Cylinder, or drum, harvesters shear off plants by catching them between steel tines and a metal plate. Flywheel harvesters use the same method in a spinning motion. Other types of self-propelled harvesters include sugar-cane harvesters, potato harvesters and rice harvesters.
