Frequently Asked Questions

  • How is machinery secured during transport?

    Securing machinery is one of the most important parts of transport. Straps, chains and chocks are commonly used to keep equipment stable, while trucks are designed to carry heavy loads without shifting. Proper weight distribution reduces the risk of damage both to the load and to the vehicle carrying it. Experienced operators take time to ensure everything is safe before the journey begins.

  • Do I need to prepare machinery before transport?

    Yes, most machinery should be prepared before transport to make the process safer. This can include draining fuel or fluids if required, disconnecting batteries, folding or removing attachments and making sure the equipment is clean enough to be secured properly. Preparing machinery helps avoid delays on the day and reduces the risk of damage during loading and unloading.

  • Is it safe to move machinery on public roads?

    Yes, when carried out correctly, moving machinery on public roads is safe. Trucks used for machinery transport are designed to handle heavy loads securely and are operated by drivers who understand the regulations. Loads are tied down and checked to make sure they do not shift during the journey. Following road laws and permit requirements ensures the transport is safe for both the equipment and other road users.
