Heavy Equipment Shipping service from AL to KY

HES provides a variety of services for transporting equipment and freight from Alabama to Kentucky. The type of trailer required will depend on the size, weight, and nature of the equipment being shipped. Additionally, whether the equipment can be loaded onto the trailer or requires ramps will influence the choice of trailer. It is generally more cost-effective if the freight can be loaded directly onto the trailer.

Flatbed Trailer
Flatbed trailers are ideal for shipping small boxes, pallets, and LTL (less-than-truckload) freight. Pricing typically ranges from $0.75 per mile for partial loads to $1.50–$3.00 per mile for full loads.

Hotshot Trailer
Hotshot trailers are suitable for smaller equipment that can be loaded using ramps, such as compact tractors and backhoes. These trailers generally cost around $1.25 per mile for partial loads and up to $5.00 per mile for full loads.

Lowboy and RGN Trailers
For transporting heavy equipment, lowboy and RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailers are the most appropriate choice. These trailers are designed to handle extremely heavy loads, often exceeding 100,000 pounds depending on the number of axles. If your equipment weighs more than 20,000 pounds, it is recommended to use a lowboy or RGN trailer to ensure safe and compliant transportation.
