Connecticut to Illinois Heavy Haul completed job
A customer bought a massive machine, a 2006 Gomaco PS-2600 Concrete Placer. Shipping a machine like this would require permits and escorts. Once our company received the permits, we dispatched out an RGN trailer being pulled by a semi. This was going 915 miles, but after receiving the route survey, the route added on 150 miles. We completed the haul, and the customer was delighted to finally get their machine.
