Industrial Equipment Transport and Heavy Machinery Relocation Services

Transporting industrial equipment and heavy machinery presents a complex logistical challenge. These oversized items typically weigh several tons and come with tight tolerances and sensitive components. Precision, safety, and reliability are, therefore, non-negotiable when it comes to transporting such loads.

Whether it’s moving a CNC machine from a production facility to the factory floor or transporting construction equipment across the country, the risks and challenges of industrial equipment relocation and heavy machinery transport are significant.

As an experienced industrial equipment freight broker, Next Exit Logistics is accustomed to handling complex logistical challenges every week.  Our team brings decades of experience, a commitment to excellence, and a transparent, proactive communication style, eliminating the hassles of complex industrial equipment moving for our clients.

Core Machine Transportation Services offered by Next Exit Logistics

As an industrial equipment and heavy machinery transport broker, we arrange the following services for our clients:.

  • Heavy Haul Shipping: Transporting industrial freight of this magnitude requires expertise not available from just any carrier. We contract with carriers who are machinery moving specialists. They possess exceptional heavy haul shipping capabilities and are skilled at the handling and transport techniques required for moving massive pieces of industrial equipment. We have relationships with carriers that can move oversized cargo and superloads –  up to 400,000 pounds – with precision.
  • Versatile Equipment Options: Every superheavy load has unique dimensions, weight distribution, and handling requirements. That’s why we work with large equipment movers who offer the full gamut of flatbed trailers, from standard configurations to drop deck trailers for taller loads, and removable gooseneck (RGN) trailers for exceptionally heavy shipments.
  • Coast-to-Coast Coverage: Our extensive over-the-road (OTR) transportation network means we can secure seamless industrial equipment relocation for our clients anywhere it is needed, from coast to coast.

Client Testimonials

Take a look at what some of our clients have to say about their experience with Next Exit Logistics:

I don’t want to mess with shipping and transportation. When I need it done, it’s done when I use Next Exit Logistics. They are always professional and have answers when we need them.                                                                           ~ Sean Marsh, Project Manager, Steel America

Everything went great yesterday. I think the trailer we used was the way to go with this. The customer had a crane at their end, but not needing one here was a huge advantage for us. Going forward, I don’t think we need to change a thing. We will have more lead time for the remaining shipments. Overall, you guys did a great job, with the right equipment.
~ Eric Wainwright, Warehouse Manager, EGW USA.

Your professionalism and excellent service are greatly appreciated.
