The heavy equipment transportation industry's workhorses are lowboy trailers. They're helpful in a range of industries for transporting equipment, machinery, and goods.

Lowboy trailers are used to transport huge machinery such as bulldozers, backhoes, and dump trucks that aren't road rated despite having wheels.

How To Ship Lowboy Trailer With Rapid Auto Shipping?

We must first establish the sort of haul you require in order to move a lowboy trailer. There are power-only options for shipping the lowboy trailer on its own, or it can be carried on a separate trailer for travel. Lowboy trailers come in a variety of shapes and sizes to accommodate a wide range of transport applications. Each model of lowboy has its own set of features that cater to a specific demand for transporting varied heavy loads. The fixed gooseneck, or FGN, has a longer deck length and is the lightest of the three options. Although the decreased weight is advantageous, the fixed neck eliminates the ability to detach and load over the trailer's front.

The MFGN, or mechanical folding gooseneck, has a deck that folds down to the ground, creating a ramp for simpler trailer loading. When transporting a lowboy trailer, the structural differences between these and other types provide their own set of issues.
