What is Heavy Machinery & Equipment Transport?

Heavy machinery and equipment transport is the movement of large, industrial, or construction equipment that exceeds standard freight size and weight limits and cannot be moved using conventional shipping methods.

This type of transport is commonly required for equipment that is wide, tall, long, heavy, or a combination of all four. Depending on the load, moves may require specialized trailers, route planning, permits, and escort coordination.

Southern Executive Transport supports equipment and machinery that includes:

  • Wide loads, including equipment exceeding standard legal width and extending beyond 16 feet wide, depending on routing and permitting
  • Tall loads requiring clearance analysis for bridges, utilities, and overhead structures
  • Long loads requiring extended deck configurations or multi-axle trailer setups
  • Heavy loads ranging from standard equipment weights to overweight and super-load classifications, including equipment weighing into the hundreds of thousands of pounds

Each move is planned based on freight dimensions, weight distribution, route feasibility, jobsite access, and regulatory requirements. This service includes professional load and route planning, insured and bonded transportation , coordination and tracking throughout transit to ensure safe, compliant delivery aligned with project schedules.

Integrated Logistics Support

In addition to heavy machinery and equipment transport, Southern Executive Transport provides integrated logistics support when equipment movement is part of a larger project or phased operation.

We coordinate equipment delivery in alignment with project schedules, site readiness, and other freight or material movements. This includes sequencing deliveries, managing multi-location equipment moves, and supporting transfers between ports, rail terminals, yards, and active job sites when required.

Our integrated approach reduces delays, limits fragmented coordination, and helps ensure equipment arrives when and where it is needed to support ongoing operations.
