Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about heavy haulage on the Sunshine Coast and South East Queensland.
All FAQs
What areas do you service for heavy haulage?
We are based on the Sunshine Coast and cover the whole of South East Queensland, including Brisbane, Caboolture, the Gold Coast, Toowoomba and the Wide Bay-Burnett region. Longer-haul and interstate movements can also be arranged.
Do you arrange NHVR permits for oversize loads?
Yes. We coordinate NHVR permit applications and route approvals as part of the planning process for oversize and over-mass movements. Permit lead times vary depending on the route and load dimensions, so it helps to give us as much notice as possible.
What size machinery can you transport?
We arrange transport for machinery ranging from mini excavators under 5 tonnes through to 90-tonne+ earthmoving plant. The right trailer and tow vehicle are matched to the load weight, dimensions and the route, including any bridge or access restrictions.
How much notice do you need for a heavy haulage job?
Standard machinery movements can often be arranged within 24 to 48 hours. Oversize and over-mass loads that require permits, pilots or police escorts generally need more lead time — often 3 to 7 days depending on the route and approvals required.
Do you provide pilot vehicles?
Yes, pilot and escort vehicles are arranged as part of oversize movements where required. The number of pilots depends on the load width and route, and is confirmed during the planning stage.
Can you move machinery at night or on weekends?
Yes. We offer 24/7 heavy haulage coordination, including night and weekend movements. Some oversize loads are required to travel at night under permit conditions, particularly through built-up areas.
What trailer do I need for my load?
The trailer is matched to your load weight, dimensions and site access. Standard low loaders suit routine machinery up to around 40 tonnes; drop-deck and extendable trailers handle longer or taller loads; widening-deck and multi-axle configurations are used for over-mass or wide consignments. We confirm the right setup when you request a quote.
Do you transport loads interstate from the Sunshine Coast?
Yes. While we are based on the Sunshine Coast, we coordinate movements across Queensland and into neighbouring states. Longer-haul and interstate jobs are planned with the same route assessment, permit coordination and pilot arrangement as any other movement.
What is the difference between a low loader and a tilt tray?
A low loader has a low fixed deck and is loaded via ramps, making it suitable for heavy and tall machinery. A tilt tray tilts the whole deck to slide loads on and off, and is better suited to lighter equipment, shipping containers and breakdown recovery.
How wide a load can a low loader carry?
Standard low loaders carry loads up to 2.5 metres wide under general access limits. Wider loads require a widening-deck trailer plus an oversize permit and, depending on the width, pilot vehicles. We arrange all of this as part of the job.
Do I need to organise loading ramps or is that included?
Low loaders come equipped with loading ramps. If your machinery cannot be driven on — for example, non-operational plant — winch loading or crane loading can be arranged. Let us know the machine condition when you request a quote.
Can a low loader get into tight industrial sites?
It depends on the site. Gate width, overhead clearance and turning room all matter. If access is tight, a smaller trailer or a different loading method may be needed. Describe your site access when requesting a quote and we will match the right equipment.
How is low loader hire priced?
Pricing is based on trailer type, load weight and dimensions, distance, and any permits or pilots required. Local Sunshine Coast shifts are typically charged by the hour or a flat rate, while longer movements are quoted as a full job.
Do you provide the driver and the trailer together?
Yes. Low loader hire is supplied as a fully serviced transport package — trailer, tow vehicle and an experienced operator. We do not hire bare trailers.
What is the maximum load height for a low loader?
Low loader deck height varies by trailer type, but the load platform typically sits around 600 to 900 millimetres off the ground. This keeps most machinery within the 4.3 metre general access height limit. Taller loads may need a drop-deck or extendable trailer to stay within limits.
Can a low loader carry two machines at once?
Depending on the deck length and the machine sizes, two smaller machines can sometimes be loaded on the same low loader. This is more cost-effective than two separate trips where the load fits. We confirm whether a dual load is possible when you provide the machine details.
What is an oversize load?
An oversize load is any load that exceeds the standard general access dimension limits — generally over 2.5 metres wide, 4.3 metres high, or 19 metres long. Loads exceeding these limits require a permit and may need pilot vehicles.
What is OSOM?
OSOM stands for oversize and over-mass. It refers to loads that exceed standard dimension or mass limits and require special permits, equipment and escort arrangements to transport legally.
How do I get an NHVR permit for an oversize load?
We coordinate the NHVR permit application as part of the transport arrangement. You provide the load details and we handle the route planning, permit submission and any conditions. Permit lead times vary by route and load complexity.
When do I need a pilot vehicle?
As a general guide, loads 3.5 metres or wider typically need one pilot, and loads 4.5 metres or wider typically need two pilots and possibly a police escort. Actual requirements vary by route and are confirmed with the NHVR during the permit process.
Can oversize loads travel during the day on the Sunshine Coast?
It depends on the route and load dimensions. Many oversize movements through built-up coastal areas are restricted to off-peak or night-time travel windows. We confirm the permitted travel times as part of the permit.
How much notice is needed for an oversize movement?
Oversize permits can take several days to issue, and complex over-mass movements may take longer if bridge assessments are needed. We recommend giving at least 3 to 7 days' notice where possible, though urgent movements can sometimes be fast-tracked.
What is a route survey and when is it needed?
A route survey is a pre-movement check of the planned route for overhead clearance, bridge load ratings, narrow sections, roundabouts and turning circles. It is typically arranged for complex or very large oversize movements where pinch points need to be identified in advance. The results feed into the permit application and movement plan.
Can oversize loads travel on weekends?
Weekend travel for oversize loads depends on the route and the permit conditions. Some routes permit weekend oversize movements, while others restrict them. We confirm the permitted travel days and times as part of the NHVR permit.
How do you transport a large excavator?
Large excavators are loaded onto a low loader under their own power via ramps, then secured with rated chains and tracking blocks. For machines over standard dimension or mass limits, a multi-axle low loader, oversize permit and pilot vehicles are arranged as needed.
Can you move non-operational machinery?
Yes. If a machine cannot be driven onto the trailer, we arrange winch loading or a crane truck to lift it on. Let us know the machine condition when requesting a quote so the right loading method is planned.
Do I need to remove the boom or attachments before transport?
Not always, but it depends on the machine and the route. Some large excavators are transported with the boom detached to stay within dimension limits. We will advise if dismantling is needed based on the machine and the planned route.
How much does it cost to transport an excavator on the Sunshine Coast?
Cost depends on the machine size, the trailer required, the distance and any permits or pilots. A local shift of a small excavator is priced differently to a long-haul move of a large earthmover. Request a quote for an accurate price.
Can you move machinery from the Sunshine Coast to Brisbane?
Yes, machinery transport between the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane is one of our most common routes. The Bruce Highway connects the two, and we plan the timing around traffic and any oversize restrictions.
Do you transport hired plant between sites?
Yes. We regularly move hired machinery between hire yards and job sites, and between sites for plant rotation. Recurring movements can be scheduled in advance.
How do you secure machinery on the trailer?
Machinery is secured with rated chain and tensioner assemblies matched to the load weight, with tracking blocks or chocks to prevent movement. The securing method is determined by the machine type, weight and the route, and meets the requirements set out in the Load Restraint Guide.
Can you transport machinery in the rain?
Yes, machinery transport can proceed in wet weather, though heavy rain or flooding may affect route access and timing. Safety is the priority — if conditions make a movement unsafe, we hold the load until conditions improve. We monitor weather and road conditions as part of the planning.
When do I need a pilot vehicle in Queensland?
As a general guide, loads 3.5 metres or wider typically require one pilot vehicle, and loads 4.5 metres or wider typically require two pilots and possibly a police escort. Actual requirements vary by route and are confirmed with the NHVR during the permit process.
How many pilot vehicles do I need?
It depends on the load width and the route. One pilot is typical for loads from 3.5m wide, two for loads from 4.5m wide, with police escorts for the largest movements. We confirm the exact number as part of the permit application.
Are pilot vehicle drivers certified?
Pilot vehicle drivers operate under NHVR and Queensland road authority requirements, with the necessary warning lights, signs and communication equipment. We arrange experienced pilots familiar with Sunshine Coast and SEQ routes.
Do you arrange police escorts?
Police escorts are required for certain very large oversize movements and are arranged through the relevant authorities. We coordinate this as part of the permit process where it is required.
Can you provide pilots for a load someone else is transporting?
Pilot vehicles are generally coordinated as part of the full transport arrangement. If you have a specific requirement, contact us to discuss whether we can assist with pilot services for your movement.
What equipment does a pilot vehicle carry?
Pilot vehicles are equipped with the required warning lights, roof-mounted 'Oversize Load' signs, two-way radios for communication with the truck driver, and safety equipment. Drivers are experienced in escorting oversize loads and managing traffic around wide movements.
Can pilots be arranged for night movements?
Yes. Pilot vehicles are coordinated for night and after-hours oversize movements where the permit requires off-peak or night-time travel. Pilots are equipped with the lighting and communication equipment needed for low-light conditions.
What is the difference between a crane truck and a separate crane?
A crane truck has a crane mounted on it, so it can transport and lift a load in one movement. A separate crane (such as a mobile or franna crane) is a dedicated lifting machine that does not transport the load. A crane truck is more efficient when you need both transport and lifting.
What can a crane truck lift?
Crane trucks lift a wide range of loads — steel, machinery, shipping containers, precast panels, site materials and equipment. The capacity depends on the crane rating and the lift radius. We match the crane truck to your load weight and site requirements.
Can a crane truck get into a residential site?
It depends on access. Crane trucks need room to park and set up stabiliser legs, and enough reach to lift the load into position. Narrow blocks, overhead services and soft ground can all affect access. Describe your site when requesting a quote.
Do you offer crane truck hire after hours?
Yes. Crane truck hire is available 24/7, including after-hours and weekend work for urgent load shifts and time-critical deliveries.
Can a crane truck place machinery onto a site?
Yes. Crane trucks are commonly used to lift machinery off a trailer and position it on site. If the machine also needs transporting, the crane truck can handle both the delivery and the placement.
What lift capacity do crane trucks have?
Crane truck lift capacity varies by vehicle, typically ranging from smaller Hiab-style loader cranes through to larger Franna-style pick-and-carry units. The capacity also depends on the lift radius — the further the reach, the lower the capacity. We match the crane truck to your load weight and the required reach.
Can a crane truck carry and lift a load in one trip?
Yes. A crane truck transports the load on its tray and uses the mounted crane to lift and place it at the destination. This is more efficient than booking a separate truck and crane, particularly for steel deliveries, container placement and machinery positioning.
What is a tilt tray truck?
A tilt tray truck has a tray that tilts and slides back to ground level so loads can be winched or driven on without separate ramps. It is used for lighter equipment, containers, site materials and breakdown recovery.
When should I use a tilt tray instead of a low loader?
Use a tilt tray for loads up to around 15 to 20 tonnes — containers, site huts, generators, mini excavators and breakdown recoveries. Use a low loader for heavier and taller machinery like large excavators, dozers and oversize plant.
Can a tilt tray recover a broken-down machine?
Yes. Tilt trays are the standard vehicle for equipment recovery. The winch pulls the non-operational machine onto the tray, and it is then transported to a workshop or yard. We offer 24/7 tilt tray recovery.
Can a tilt tray carry a shipping container?
Yes. Tilt trays are commonly used to deliver and position shipping containers. The tray slides to ground level so the container can be winched on or off, or tilted into position.
What weight can a tilt tray carry?
Tilt tray capacity varies by truck, but most carry loads up to around 15 to 20 tonnes. Heavier machinery requires a low loader. We confirm the right vehicle based on your load weight.
Can a tilt tray deliver a shipping container to my site?
Yes. Tilt trays are commonly used to deliver and position shipping containers. The tray slides to ground level so the container can be winched on at the depot and tilted off at the destination, even where there is no forklift or loading dock.
How quickly can a tilt tray respond to a breakdown?
Breakdown recovery is available 24/7. For urgent breakdowns, call our dispatch line on 0489 953 573 and we will arrange the nearest suitable tilt tray. Response time depends on the location and equipment availability, but we prioritise breakdown calls.
Do you really operate 24/7?
Yes. We coordinate heavy haulage outside standard business hours, including nights and weekends. Planned after-hours movements are arranged in advance, and urgent or breakdown movements can be dispatched by calling our dispatch line on 0489 953 573.
Why do some oversize loads travel at night?
Many oversize movements are restricted to off-peak or night-time travel windows, particularly through built-up areas, to minimise disruption to traffic. The permit specifies the permitted travel times.
Can you recover a broken-down machine after hours?
Yes. Breakdown recovery is available outside business hours. Call our dispatch line and we will arrange a tilt tray or low loader depending on the machine size and condition.
Is after-hours haulage more expensive?
After-hours and weekend work may attract different rates than standard daytime movements. The pricing is confirmed in the quote based on the timing, equipment and requirements of the job.
How do I arrange an urgent after-hours movement?
Call our dispatch line on 0489 953 573 for urgent or after-hours movements. For planned night or weekend jobs, submit a quote request with the timing details and we will arrange the equipment and permits.
What counts as an emergency haulage?
Emergency haulage covers breakdown recovery, time-critical plant movements and urgent oversize movements that cannot wait for standard scheduling. This includes machines broken down on site or on the road, equipment needed for next-day works, and permit-restricted loads with tight travel windows.
Can you arrange same-day plant transport?
Same-day transport can sometimes be arranged for standard-dimension machinery, depending on equipment availability and the route. Oversize and over-mass loads that require permits generally need more lead time. Call our dispatch line for urgent same-day requests.

Yes. We coordinate earthmoving plant transport, low loader hire and oversize movements across the Aura, Caloundra South and Palmview growth corridor, with Bruce Highway access for movements north and south.
Can you transport earthmoving plant to the Aura civil earthworks?
Yes. We regularly arrange transport for excavators, dozers, graders, rollers, dump trucks, water carts and scrapers to and from the Aura and Caloundra South civil earthworks. Submit a quote request with the machine details and locations.
Are there oversize restrictions through the Aura corridor?
Oversize loads through the Aura and Caloundra South corridor may be restricted to off-peak or night travel, particularly on Caloundra Road and the Bruce Highway. Holiday periods bring additional traffic, so timing is planned carefully. We confirm the permitted travel times as part of the NHVR permit.
Can you move large over-mass plant for bulk earthworks in Aura?
Yes. We arrange transport for large over-mass earthmoving equipment used in bulk cut-to-fill operations across the Aura corridor. These movements are planned with the appropriate permits, pilot vehicles and route surveys for the highway and local road network.
How do I get a quote for a plant movement to the Aura corridor?
Submit a quote request with the machine type, weight, dimensions, pickup and delivery locations, and preferred date. We will confirm the right equipment, route and any permit requirements for the movement.
