Machinery Transport for Rigging Companies

Riggers and millwrights move the machine. We coordinate the truck. Step decks, RGNs, air-ride flatbeds and Conestogas for CNC machines, EDMs, injection molders, presses and plant equipment, from Los Angeles to anywhere in the lower 48.

Built Around the Rigging Crew

Your crew is on the clock the moment the truck is late. We set the pickup window around your schedule, confirm the trailer deck height and length for the machine, and share driver ETAs so nobody waits on the dock.

Send the machine, weight, footprint, height and site notes. We match the trailer and quote it.

What We Coordinate for Riggers

Step deck

Lower deck for tall machines, so most CNC mills and molders stay under legal height.

RGN / lowboy

Removable gooseneck for heavy machines and equipment rolled or skated on.

Air-ride flatbed

Air suspension for EDMs, lasers and sensitive controls.

Conestoga and tarping

Rolling tarp or tarps to keep machines dry and clean.

Timing

Appointment pickups and deliveries set to the crew and the dock.

Permits and escorts

Oversize loads get state permits and escorts when required.

Site access

Tight streets, alleys and plant yards: we note truck length and turning room up front.

Securement

Chains, binders and dunnage to the federal cargo securement rules.
