Description
Securing heavy machinery on Step Deck Loads demands specialized techniques to ensure
both safety and stability throughout the transportation process. The substantial size and
weight of heavy machinery present unique challenges that must be meticulously addressed
to prevent accidents and ensure the machinery reaches its destination securely.
The process begins with careful planning and preparation. Before loading the heavy machinery
onto the trailer, it is crucial to thoroughly inspect the trailer for any structural weaknesses or
defects that could compromise the load’s stability. Selecting the right type of trailer—RGN,
Step Deck, or Double Drop—based on the machinery’s dimensions and weight is essential.
Each trailer type offers different advantages for transporting oversized or heavy equipment,
with RGN trailers being particularly suitable for the heaviest loads due to their low center of
gravity and robust steel construction.
Once the appropriate trailer is chosen and inspected, the next step involves the precise
placement of the heavy machinery. The machinery should be loaded in a way that ensures an
even distribution of weight across the trailer, maintaining balance and preventing undue stress
on any part of the trailer.
