Description:
Truck Transportation for equipment and machinery that is High, Wide and/or Heavy.
I run an RGN Double Drop with 29’ well, out riggers, capacity up to 70,000 pounds.
We have a number of companies under common ownership, and can offer a wide range of capacities, in the USA & Canada.
Some pictures are posted on my Yahoo.360 page:

As of 7-25-08, I am in Mansfield, OH.
Rather than posting multiple photo attachments, I have provided l inks to a photo sharing service.
The crowd on the trailer - proof that I got friends. I went in to dinner, and came back out for a jacket, to find them, watching a drag race. I think I scared them a little, but told them they were cool, as long as I could take their picture.

The military scraper - Had a bad steer box and difficulty holding air. The first loader could not keep his eyes on me, and would move the unit without a signal. He thought he was in charge, until I replaced him and his observer, with their supervisors.
It rained, and before I was done, the water in my boots was ankle deep. The others didn’t get so wet.

The Vibe Truck - This is an earth mover of a different sort. It vibrates the earth, in the search for oil, and recorders catch sonic waves.
I relocated 3 of them, one afternoon, and high-centered the trailer, coming up a driveway that was below the road grade. The truck was in the median, the front of the trailer was blocking 2 east bound lanes of traffic, and the back of the trailer was below grade.
That was the first time I used a little trick that I knew about, and I was embarrassed, for about 10 minutes. We moved the others a block away, for loading. I had to buy a pack of fly strips, after finishing up, in the field...

The reel of fiber optic cable was about 57,000 pounds and 1.5 inches short of 16 feet high, going from Savannah, GA to St. Petersburg, FL. One bridge presented a problem that took about 20 minutes to get under, and on down the road.

The Cat 740 Articulated Dump Truck - rather uneventful, other than running from the port of Baltimore through Charleston, WV - through the jungle, with 2 escorts - through Louisville, KY - through Indianapolis, IN to Springfield, IL - all to avoid the great state of OH.
