Transport Any Type of Bulldozer
The term bulldozer usually refers to a tractor that is equipped with a blade. The vast majority of bulldozers are tracked vehicles, but four-wheel drive, hydraulic bulldozers also exist. No matter what type of bulldozer you own, Freedom Heavy Hauling can ship it safely to any destination in the country.
While bulldozer tractors are rather standard, bulldozers attachments vary significantly. Ask your transportation agent whether your attachments can travel with your bulldozer, which will save you money. The main types of attachments used on bulldozers includes:
S-Blade.
Used for fine grading, an S-blade is smaller than other attachments. It might be able to travel along with your bulldozer.
U-Blade.
Taller than an S-blade, your U-blade attachment might have to travel as a separate load on another trailer.
SU- blade. Used for pushing rocks, your SU-blade attachment also might be able to travel alongside your bulldozer.
Ripper. A ripper blade is a claw-style device used to break rocky ground or soil. Rippers must be detached from the bulldozer for transport.
Select the Proper Truck and Trailer to Haul Your Bulldozer
An Allstate Transport Solutions specialist will match your needs with the proper trailer, every time. Expect our experienced transport specialists to recommend the proper truck and trailer combination to ship your bulldozer. While keeping your costs as low as possible is our goal, some larger pieces of construction equipment require heavy duty trailers for safe transport. These specialty trailers can bring the cost up but, we will do our best to get your rates as low as we can for you.
Trailers used to transport bulldozers include:
RGN trailers.
Step Deck trailers
Larger bulldozers, those that weigh more than 30,000 pounds, travel aboard RGN trailers. RGN trailers exist in many axel configurations. The dimensions of your large bulldozer dictates which type of RGN trailer you need to transport your equipment safely. Trust your agent to help you select the type of trailer that’s right for your project.
Smaller bulldozers, such as the Caterpillar D5K and the Komatsu D3, usually fit on a step-deck trailers. In general, step-deck transport is less expensive than RGN shipping. Ask your agent whether your small dozer can travel safely on a step-deck trailer.
Tips for Successfully Shipping Your Bulldozer
Make sure you provide the exact dimensions of your bulldozer to your transport agent. Dozers more than eight-feet wide usually require oversize permits. Unfortunately, there’s no way to reduce the width of your bulldozer to make it fit within standards.
Your large bulldozer also might challenge height limits. Measure from the top of the cab to the bottom of the treads. Most states allow around 13-feet of vertical clearance during transport. Other considerations for transporting your bulldozer include:
Shipping Your Blades.
Some state regulations require you to disengage the bulldozer blade from the bulldozer while in transport. In other instances, your blade might be too large to travel aboard the same trailer as your bulldozer. Again, determining your exact blade dimensions is important.
Smaller bulldozers can weigh less than 20,000 pounds. The largest bulldozers can weigh hundreds of thousands of pounds. Allstate Transport Solutions
