Plan the move

Shipping a hopper-bottom trailer.

A successful hopper-bottom trailer move begins with accurate specifications and realistic access details. We evaluate the unit’s dimensions, estimated weight, condition, pickup and delivery locations, desired timing and any features that affect safe transportation.

Depending on the unit and its roadworthiness, the practical solution may be tow-away service on the trailer’s own wheels or haul-on transportation using suitable equipment. Distance alone does not determine the service; trailer design, route, permits, loading conditions and availability matter too.
