Insurance For Hauling Heavy Equipment

More often than not, transporting heavy equipment goes smoothly, and the shipment reaches its destination, whether in Washington, Toledo, Florida, or Columbus, without a single scratch. But, if the worst scenario happens, your valuable shifting can get damaged (sometimes beyond) repair, putting a significant financial strain on your business.
Shipping companies are required by law to offer minimum insurance. But, ask yourself this: if something is to happen, will that be enough to cover the cost?

At A-1 Auto Transport, we consider all factors and examine problems from different angles. So, we always encourage our clients to go beyond the minimum coverage required and minimize their risks as much as possible.
How to Prepare for Shipping

Before you ship your construction equipment, there are a few steps you should take to ensure it arrives safely. These include: • Remove any loose parts or attachments that could shift and cause damage during transport. • Drain all fluids from the machine. This includes fuel, oil, and coolant. • Inspect the machine for any damage or wear and tear signs and address them before shipping. • Securely attach any components that could move with straps, chains, or tie-downs. • Check your tires to ensure they are correctly inflated before loading onto a trailer or flatbed truck.
