A rollformer is a piece of heavy machinery that is used to bend specific sheets of metal, usually coiled steel. A client reached out to Heavy Haulers and spoke with Luke Foster about transporting his 2017 Bradbury Rollformer from Oklahoma to Georgia. The client had recently opened a new location for his business and needed to relocate the rollformer for several upcoming projects.
The rollformer, weighing roughly 70,000lbs, was a large project that needed specific handling to ensure safe delivery. Luke determined a lowboy trailer would be the best option, as it could handle the weight and lower the rollformer enough to pass through any low clearance bridges. Then, he pre-planned the routes and got the proper permits to ensure the rollformer shipment would be a safe transport, not only for the team involved, but for other motorists on the road.
Since the rollformer was an oversize load it not only required permits for safe transport, but the client also needed load assistance and tarps to ensure that outside elements did not damage the rollformer. The heavy machinery was loaded onto the lowboy trailer with cranes. Then, the team safely secured it, triple checking to ensure everything had been done properly. Once the driver was satisfied, they applied the tarps, again making sure it was tied down properly so the covering wouldn’t come loose during transport. Once the rollformer was secured and ready for transport, the driver began the 750 mile journey from Claremore, Oklahoma to Tallapoosa, Georgia.
The driver adhered to top safety standards as he transported the Bradbury rollformer from Oklahoma to Georgia. He periodically made stops to ensure that the tarp had not come loose from high winds during the shipment. Load assistance was once again provided when the driver arrived in Georgia, this time to assist with unloading the rollformer. The client went out of his way to leave glowing reviews for Luke, and the exceptional transport he put together. All together, this rollformer transport was an $850,000 dollar value.
Luke has been with the NTS family for a quite a while. As a logistics agent, he enjoys shipping large machinery. Cranes and construction equipment are among some of his favorites. Most of all, he loves transports that provide a unique challenge. Luke is always ready to find solutions for his clients.
