Lowboy and RGN dispatch
Heavy equipment and tall machinery, with dimensions, permits and escort needs checked before you commit.
First load free · then a % of each load · no contractWhat we handle for your lowboy or RGN
- Find equipment and machinery loads that need a low deck or a front-loading RGN
- Get length, width, height and weight in writing before you accept
- Flag loads that need state oversize or overweight permits, escorts or travel-time limits
- Check that the load's weight fits your axle setup and your permits
- Negotiate loading time, permit costs, escorts and detention on the rate confirmation
Loads we look for
A lowboy's deck sits close to the ground, so tall equipment can stay under height limits. An RGN (removable gooseneck) detaches at the front so equipment can drive on. The federal limits on the Interstate are 102 inches wide and 80,000 lbs gross (23 CFR 658). There's no federal height limit, and most states set it between 13'6" and 14'. Bigger or heavier loads need permits from each state on the route. Equipment of 10,000 lbs or more needs at least four tiedowns (49 CFR 393.130).
- Excavators, dozers and loaders

What brokers will ask for
Heavy haul brokers usually ask for:
- Auto liability of $1,000,000 and cargo coverage that fits the equipment's value
- Trailer type, deck lengths, deck height, axle count and weight rating
- Chains, binders, and experience securing tracked and wheeled equipment
- Oversize banners, flags and lights for permitted loads
- ELD for tracking and hours of service
Pricing
A simple percentage of each load's gross, quoted for your truck and lanes before you start and charged only on loads we book. No contract, and your first load is free.
Questions carriers ask
Who gets the oversize permits?
Permits are issued by each state the load passes through. They're usually arranged by the broker, the shipper or a permit service. We flag permit and escort needs on every load so you know before you accept.
What's the difference between a lowboy and an RGN?
Both have a low deck. On an RGN the gooseneck comes off so equipment can drive on from the front. A fixed-neck lowboy usually loads from the rear with ramps.
Do you need my trailer specs?
Yes. Deck lengths, deck height, axle count and weight rating decide which loads you can legally haul and which permits they'll need.
