Do you operate industrial, construction, or other commercial businesses that need to transport supplies or heavy equipment? From large pieces of freight to machinery that cannot break down into smaller parts, our lowboy transport services can successfully manage your transportation requirements.
Ideal for transporting construction machinery, capable of moving under its own power, this type of equipment is commonly recognized as roll-on, roll-off. Because of the low-profile design, lowboy trailers simplify the loading/unloading process.
We also offer shipping services that use lowboy trailers for various relocation projects. Tall loads can be particularly challenging due to numerous factors, including the need to clear overhead obstructions, a high center of gravity, and travel time restrictions. Due to their low profile, customers can avoid requirements for over-dimension permits, thereby reducing their shipping costs.
Long considered to be the workhorses for the heavy equipment industry, a lowboy semi-trailer consists of two drops in deck height; one just behind the gooseneck and the other right before the hind wheels. Able to transport legal loads of up to 12 feet (3.66 metres) tall, and loads weighing from 40,000-80,000lbs, lowboys are more flexible than flatbed trailers. Because of their low-profile configuration, typically lowboys are often enlisted to move heavy equipment such as bulldozers or other large industrial equipment.
As long as the cargo being transported falls within its carrying capacity, lowboy trailers can handle almost any type of freight. Offering easier clearance to allow over-height loads to pass safely under bridges and other low-hanging infrastructure opens up more route opportunities while providing safer lowboy transport services for your goods.
Considered one of the best lowboy trucking companies in North America, MGA International Logistics can handle a wide variety of lowboy freight, including excavators, dozers, loaders, skid steers, compactors, loader backhoes, parts, and inoperable machinery. We are pleased to provide solutions for moving all your heavy, tall, or large freight. Allow our team to gather all the necessary information and then provide you with an estimate for both cost and delivery time.

Greg Grimes got it done. I had an unusual shipment that he took on seriously and professionally. Greg was very responsive and communicative, worked many different angles to get me a good price, and overcame several logistical challenges. I would definitely use MGA again.
We have made several trips to Toronto for the 2013 PGA Championship and over the course of those trips we have gotten to know the principles of this organization well. They are headquartered in Toronto and are great people. If you need to reach out to them, ask for Greg or Brad Grimes and let them know you heard of them through this note and they will take good care of you.
Can count on MGA for all my shipping requirements. Fantastic personnel and service.
