Strategizing The Used 1997 Liebherr Crane Transport
The Liebherr Crane is known for its versatility to lift heavy equipment in various industries, including construction, mining, and even military operations. The Liebherr crane has all-terrain capabilities, a massive telescopic boom, and the capability to reach multiple sites thanks to its capability for general road and off-road use.
However, this large piece of equipment is also overlength and overweight, which means extra requirements are necessary for safe transport. Jackson knows the ins and outs of secure transport. He adheres to DOT regulations and ensures every transport provides top safety for the team and other motorists on the road.
Jackson vetted drivers until he found one with the experience and equipment required for hauling the crane. He chose an extendable RGN trailer with a stinger axle. A stinger axle is added to the rear of the trailer for extra weight distribution and support. In all, the trailer required a 13-axle setup to safely carry the Liebherr Crane.
Jackson also contracted a rigging crew, as the crane had to be disassembled to safely load it on the trailer and adhere to DOT regulations and requirements.
Safely Delivering the Liebherr Crane To Austin, Texas
Once Jackson had the necessary pilot cars, permits, and strategy in place, he had the driver disembark and begin the long-haul to Texas. Because of state-specific oversize load requirements and federal regulations, the oversize load took seven days to deliver. That's the norm in cases of oversize loads.
However, Jackson was transparent from the beginning about that fact, so the client knew exactly what to expect. He also ensured every detail was covered, the route was pre-planned, and they had provisions for any challenges that could have come up. Jackson is no stranger when it comes to oversize crane transport.
The Libherr Crane was delivered safely and on time to the destination. This was a first time client, but with the successful transparent, they vowed to call Jackson for their next oversize load haul.
