We Will Transport It: Michigan’s #1 Heavy Machinery Transport

When you need to move your excavator, bulldozer or crane, it’s best to choose the most reliable Michigan heavy machinery transportation company. Choosing a 5 star moving company, We Will Transport It shows up on time and gets the job done right. Whether you need a loader hauled in Grand Rapids or a generator in Lansing, our Michigan heavy haul teams are your #1 choice.

Trying to move heavy machinery without the right setup or knowledge is a recipe for disaster, that can result in delays, fines, and damage. A standard truck can’t handle oversize loads and can’t just hit the road. For a road-compliant and legal delivery, you’ll need permits, route surveys, and drivers who know every bridge height on I-75. We make the shipment process easier for you by managing all the logistics, securing every strap, and delivering your equipment safely and on schedule.

Michigan Heavy Equipment Hauling Expertise

Michigan relies on heavy machinery as the state is built on manufacturing, agriculture, energy, and the Great Lakes industry and Michigan trusts us to keep their equipment moving. We’re experts in heavy equipment shipping who know every frost law, width restriction, and seasonal route change.

Count on our Michigan heavy machinery operators for:

  • MDOT oversize permits and pilot car coordination
  • Pre-trip route planning and clearance checks
  • RGN, lowboy, step-deck, and extendable trailers
  • Full compliance with weight stations, bridges, and tunnels

We’re not just a hauling company, we’re your local heavy haul partner with the best Massachusetts drivers.

Cost for Michigan Heavy Equipment Transport

The cost of heavy equipment transport in Michigan isn’t the same for every haul. Each move comes down to distance, route conditions, trailer type, and the size of the machinery. Most hauls across the state run between $2.50 and $5.00 per mile, while long-distance jobs leaving Michigan can cost more once permits and escort fees are added. A smaller bulldozer from Grand Rapids to Lansing might come in around a few hundred dollars, but shipping a crane or excavator from Detroit to Denver can easily reach several thousand.

When you book through We Will Transport It, you’re getting a Michigan heavy haul trucking company that plans every move from pickup to delivery. Our dispatchers find the most direct routes, arrange proper loading equipment, and stay in contact the entire way. Whether it’s construction equipment transport, heavy machinery shipping, or oversize load hauling, the goal stays the same safe delivery at a transparent price. To get an exact Michigan heavy equipment transport quote, call (877) 880-5991 or fill out the online form for upfront pricing.

Trusted Michigan Heavy Haul Drivers

Transporting Your Michigan Heavy Equipment

Before moving your heavy machinery, we match the perfect trailer to every load. Not every trailer can fit every type of oversized machinery. Our fleet of lowboys, RGNs, flatbeds, stretch trailers, and Landolls can handle excavators, dozers, wind blades, stamping presses, and non-runners. Every trailer is fully inspected before departure, ensuring your gear stays secure from pickup to drop-off.

  • RGN Trailers: Removable gooseneck for tall loads under I-94 bridges & Detroit-Windsor Tunnel.
  • Lowboy Trailers: Ground-level deck for heavy dozers/rollers up to 60 tons.
  • Step Deck Trailers: High-clearance for cranes with booms or tall farm equipment.
  • Extendable Flatbeds: Stretch to 80+ ft for wind blades and steel beams.

Heavy Haul Services We Provide in Michigan

We Will Transport It is a full-service heavy machinery transport company. We handle everything from inoperable units to superloads, wide loads, tall shipments, and time-critical moves. Whether it’s one machine or an entire fleet, we load, secure, permit, and deliver with precision.

While we provide every kind of heavy haul service, each service won’t cost the same amount. Every hauling job is different and every quote is different. Your quote includes:

  • Distance and route
  • Load weight, width, height, and permit requirements
  • Fuel rates, tolls encountered and access fees
  • Timely or urgent delivery window

Low quotes mean nothing without on-time service. We guarantee scheduled pick-ups and deliveries with the right trailer, keeping your operations on track.

Interstate Heavy Equipment Shipping from Michigan

Michigan Heavy Transport FAQs

Do you need an oversize permit for every load in Michigan?

Yes, Michigan Department of Transportation requires permits for any heavy machinery over 8.5 ft wide, 13.5 ft high, 80,000 lbs, or 70 ft long. At We Will Transport It, we handle the paperwork, securing any needed single-trip, annual, or multi-state permits so you don’t have to worry about compliance. We make sure your load meets all state regulations before it hits the road.

What is the biggest load you’ve moved through Detroit?

Our largest haul was a 180-ton stamping press moving from Warren, MI, to Toledo, OH, via I-75. This required four pilot cars, night-time transport, and bridge approvals from MDOT. Large or complicated shipments are our specialty, and we carefully plan every detail for safety and efficiency. Your machine isn’t too heavy as we’re experienced in moving oversized machinery.

Can you pick up a non-running excavator from a job site with no dock?

Absolutely. We transport non-operational equipment using a Landoll or lowboy trailer with winches, meaning you don’t need a crane or forklift on your end. Uneven or tight job sites are manageable but it’s best for the site to have enough space for our trailers and drivers to safely maneuver.

How fast can you get a dozer from Grand Rapids to Chicago?

We can arrange same-day permits and next-day delivery for this route, your equipment gets there quickly, safely, and on schedule.

Do you haul wind turbine blades across the Mackinac Bridge?

Yes, but this machinery requires a special MDOT superload permit. We handle the logistics to ensure your turbine blades clear the bridge safely.

What if my crane boom makes the load 95 ft long?

No problem. We can transport oversized cranes on extendable flatbeds or RGNs, and if your route crosses state lines, we secure the necessary permits for a smooth, legal transit.

Do I have to pay an upfront payment to book a heavy machinery haul?

Never. You can schedule your haul today and pay only after safe delivery. Our goal is to make transport simple, predictable, and risk-free.

How much does transporting heavy equipment cost?

Michigan heavy equipment hauling typically costs between $1.75 – $5.00 per mile, and your per mile rates will decrease if you’re scheduling cross-country transportation.

How do you transport heavy equipment?

If your machinery has wheels, we can send a tow vehicle to hitch it up for transport to the job site. Larger and oversized machinery must typically be shipped on a standard or specialty flatbed trailer. Tell your WWTI transport experts the make and model of your machinery, and we’ll help determine the correct type of trailer and schedule service with a highly-rated MI heavy equipment transporter.,
