Specialized RGN Shipping Services for Trucking
Heavy and oversized loads often present a logistical challenge when it comes to transportation. Tractors, construction equipment, cranes, or other heavy equipment often aren’t rated for highway travel, and conventional flatbed trailers are ill suited to hauling them, particularly in terms of loading and unloading. This is the reason many freight companies utilize RGN trailer transport for bulky mobile equipment. RGN freight is the cargo that is best suited for RGN trailers and RGN trucking companies, offering a specialized solution for trailer transport that can handle even the most challenging oversized loads.
RGN trailers are ideal for oversized equipment. At Next Exit Logistics, we enlist RGN carriers with trailers that are perfectly adapted for your heavy haul shipment needs, whether you’re moving construction equipment from one site to another, relocating mobile machinery to a new place of operations, or even transporting heavy machinery. This method ensures efficient RGN trailer transport equipment movement for demanding freight.
What Are Removable Gooseneck RGN Trailers?
Removable gooseneck (RGN) trailers are built to carry large equipment and heavy loads, particularly mobile equipment like tractors, dump trucks, tanks, etc. They function much like traditional double drop trailers, except that the front gooseneck mechanism in the front is detachable, allowing the entire trailer bed to function as a ramp, allowing mobile equipment to simply be driven on board. This process makes RGN shipping highly efficient for trailer transport.
The removable gooseneck hitch allows RGN trailers to be highly versatile in terms of the equipment they can haul, and they can save time and resources that would normally be needed to load heavy machinery from the back. The exact load to be transported will impact the sort of RGN trailer used, with different trailer features being built for different loads.
If the load is especially large, a stretch RGN trailer may be needed. This extended trailer option allows stretch RGNs to function like normal removable gooseneck trailers, except that they can be extended if needed to accommodate much larger usable space for bulkier loads. This can be critical for oversized freight. These specialized RGN trailer transport solutions offer larger usable space compared to standard options.
The low trailer bed is ideal for oversized loads as well. Taller equipment is easier to accommodate with an RGN trailer than with a regular flatbed, potentially avoiding the need for certain permits and avoiding maximum height restrictions. This avoids situations that exceed maximum height restrictions. The lower center of gravity also improves overall stability, making them ideal for heavy haul applications within the transport industry. For transporting heavy loads, RGNs are unparalleled.

High Value Shipping FAQs
A lowboy trailer is built to be loaded from the rear, and it’s not capable of being lowered to act as a ramp. RGN trailers, however, can be dropped and loaded from the front once the gooseneck attachment is removed.
RGN stands for a type of double drop trailer in which the gooseneck attachment is detachable for easier loading. RGNs and conventional double drops both have the benefit of being low to the ground, allowing them to effectively transport taller equipment and loads. They also offer excellent clearance space for heavy equipment.
It depends on the specific model in question, but some RGNs can handle loads over 150,000 pounds! Our RGN shipping capabilities ensure safe and compliant length shipments. We also provide solutions for hotshot loads and explore various RGN haulage options.
