Flatbed Hauling for Heavy Equipment & Machinery
When something's too heavy, too awkward, or too dangerous to move by hand, and it won't fit in a box truck, we haul it with a hydraulic liftgate and winch. No manual lifting, no risky DIY moving.

It's an easy mix-up, but these are two different services. Flatbed towing moves vehicles, cars that can still be rolled or driven onto the bed. Flatbed hauling is for equipment and machinery that isn't a vehicle at all and usually can't move under its own power: generators, construction equipment, industrial machinery, and heavy items like safes. That means loading has to happen with a hydraulic liftgate or winch instead.
What's Included
- Flatbed transport for equipment too heavy or bulky for a standard box truck
- Hydraulic liftgate and winch loading, no manual lifting required
- Rigging and securing for irregular or top-heavy loads
- Careful handling for items like industrial safes, generators, and construction equipment
Why This Matters for Safes
Heavy safes are a perfect example of why this service exists. A floor safe or gun safe can weigh several hundred pounds or more, dense, low to the ground, and with almost no good grip points. Trying to move one with a hand truck and a few extra people is how floors get damaged and backs get hurt. A liftgate and winch handle the weight properly, without anyone needing to lift it at all.
How Much Does Flatbed Hauling Cost?
Local hauls start around $200 for smaller equipment like mini excavators, skid steers, or standard safes. Larger machinery or jobs needing more complex rigging typically run $500 to $1,500 or more, depending on weight, size, and how the load needs to be secured. We'll give you a firm quote once we know what you're moving.

Yes, safes are one of the more common items we haul, exactly the kind of dense, awkward load a liftgate and winch are built for.
No, our liftgate and winch equipment are designed so no manual lifting is required from you.
A wide range, from generators and skid steers up to larger construction machinery. Let us know approximate weight and dimensions when you call.
Yes, securing an irregularly shaped or top-heavy load properly is a core part of this service.
Straightforward local hauls can often be scheduled within a day or two. Larger jobs may need more lead time.
Yes, since it's loaded via liftgate or winch rather than driven, whether it runs or not doesn't matter.
