Trusted Los Angeles Machinery Moving Experts

Machinery moving typically includes equipment assessment, trailer selection, route planning, permit coordination, securement, transportation, and delivery coordination. For heavier or oversized equipment, crane and rigging support may also be needed to lift, position, or install the machinery. Sims Global Solutions coordinates these moving parts through specialized freight resources, dedicated operations support, and real-time shipment visibility.

Machinery that is oversized, overweight, tall, unusually shaped, high value, or difficult to load often requires specialized equipment such as RGN, lowboy, multi-axle, double drop, flatbed, or step deck trailers. If your equipment cannot fit safely in a standard dry van or exceeds legal dimensions, specialized planning, permits, escorts, and securement are usually required.

Permits are often required when machinery exceeds legal height, width, length, or weight limits. Oversized and heavy haul moves may also require route surveys, escort vehicles, restricted travel windows, or coordination with local and state authorities. Sims Global Solutions works with permitting and route planning teams to help keep complex machinery moves compliant and efficient.

Transit time depends on equipment size, route complexity, permit requirements, loading conditions, and destination. Standard machinery shipments may move quickly once equipment and carrier capacity are confirmed, while oversized or super load projects can require additional planning. Real-time GPS tracking and dedicated logistics coordination help customers monitor progress from pickup through final delivery.

A quote usually requires the machinery’s dimensions, weight, pickup and delivery locations, loading method, delivery access details, timing requirements, and whether cranes, rigging, escorts, or permits are needed. Photos, equipment specifications, and site notes are also helpful. Providing complete details early helps match the right trailer, carrier, securement method, and route.

Yes. Crane and rigging services can be coordinated for lifting, positioning, and installation of heavy or oversized machinery. This may include site assessment, lift planning, rigging and load securement, and coordination with transportation, permitting, and routing teams. Pairing rigging with heavy haul transportation creates a more complete start-to-finish solution.

Machinery is protected through proper trailer selection, blocking and bracing, chains, binders, straps, secure loading procedures, and route planning that accounts for road conditions, traffic, and load restrictions. High value freight can also receive enhanced handling, monitoring, and additional protection through A+ rated supplemental cargo insurance where applicable.
