Reliable Farm Equipment Transportation Services

Farm equipment transportation costs are based on equipment dimensions, weight, route distance, trailer type, permits, escorts, loading requirements, and delivery timeline. Oversized tractors, combines, and implements often need specialized trailers or route planning, which affects pricing. Sims Global Solutions reviews the full shipment profile to identify the most practical, compliant, and cost-effective transportation option available.

Common farm equipment loads include tractors, combines, planters, sprayers, balers, tillage equipment, skid steers, attachments, and other agricultural machinery. The right transport method depends on whether the unit is oversized, overweight, wheeled, tracked, drivable, or requires loading support. Open-deck trailers, RGN/lowboy options, step decks, and multi-axle configurations may be used.

Oversized farm machinery is handled through detailed dimension checks, trailer selection, route planning, permit coordination, and securement planning. Loads that exceed standard height, width, length, or weight limits may require state permits, escorts, or specialized routing. Sims Global Solutions coordinates with permitting and carrier teams to keep each move compliant from pickup through delivery.

Transit time depends on distance, route restrictions, equipment size, permit requirements, escort availability, weather, and loading or unloading conditions. A straightforward regional move may be scheduled faster than a complex oversized haul crossing multiple states. Real-time tracking and dedicated coordination help customers stay informed as the shipment progresses.

Farm machinery is secured using load-appropriate chains, binders, straps, blocks, and other securement equipment to prevent shifting during transit. The securement plan considers weight distribution, attachment points, center of gravity, and trailer type. For oversized or high-value equipment, additional handling procedures and monitoring may be recommended to reduce risk.

Yes. Sims Global Solutions provides farm equipment transportation across all 50 states, with broader North American, international, and cross-border capabilities available when required. Nationwide carrier access and specialized equipment options make it possible to coordinate agricultural machinery moves between farms, dealers, auctions, ports, warehouses, and job sites.

Many farm equipment moves require accurate dimensions, operating weight, pickup and delivery addresses, loading method, unloading method, equipment condition, preferred timing, and any site restrictions. Photos are also helpful for identifying attachment points, tire or track condition, and clearance concerns. This information helps match the load with the right trailer and carrier.

Tracking is available through Sims Global Solutions’ technology-supported process, including regular updates and real-time shipment visibility through SimsTrak capabilities. Customers can receive status updates during pickup, transit, and delivery. Dedicated logistics coordinators also help monitor loads, communicate changes, and support issue resolution when schedule or route conditions shift.
