Transporting heavy equipment and machinery using a Kenworth truck paired with a lowboy trailer is a common and highly effective solution in the logistics and construction industry.
Transporting heavy equipment and machinery using a Kenworth truck paired with a lowboy trailer is a common and highly effective solution in the logistics and construction industry. Maximum Towing runs that pairing as Heavy Duty Transport from Frostproof and Winter Haven.
The lowboy deck sits close to the ground so tall machines clear bridges and overpasses. The drop-deck keeps a lower center of gravity on the highway. The frame is built for equipment such as bulldozers, excavators, harvesters, and large generators.

Drop-deck design for taller equipment
Heavy-duty frame for construction and farm machines
Heavy equipment and machinery
This line is for heavy equipment and machinery, not a passenger car on the carrier. Farm and construction moves in Polk and Highlands counties use the same Kenworth and lowboy.
A car, van, SUV, pickup, or golf cart under 11,000 lbs belongs on Light Duty Transport. A stuck medium-duty vehicle up to 17,000 lbs belongs on Medium Duty Towing.
Forklifts and small machines moving pad to pad belong on Equipment Transport. Keep this page for the heavier machinery.
Heavy equipment and machinery
Farm and construction loads
Not a light-duty car tow
Oversized and overweight moves
The home gallery shows this class of work: farm equipment, tanks, excavators, and concrete mixers on a 50-ton lowboy. Dispatch needs the two addresses, the machine type, and the height and weight before a truck leaves.
Cost depends on distance and the load. There is no published price list. Use Request An Estimate or call the Frostproof or Winter Haven number.
If the machine is a forklift or small construction unit, start on Equipment Transport instead of this haul.

The Frostproof list also includes Avon Park, Sebring, Bowling Green, and Wauchula. The Winter Haven list includes Auburndale, Bartow, Lake Alfred, and Haines City.
How to request a haul

Equipment transport vs heavy duty
Small construction equipment and forklifts moving site to site, or going to a recycle or repair shop, are Equipment Transport. That work keeps a construction schedule moving without a lowboy.
The Kenworth and lowboy stay on Heavy Duty Transport for the heavier machinery. If you are not sure which truck fits, call dispatch with the make and weight.
