Before you book: what shippers ask

What trailer does a Caterpillar 930 need?

A lowboy or RGN. At 10 ft 11 in tall the machine sits at 12 ft 5 in on an RGN deck and 15 ft 11 in on a flatbed; the legal loaded height is 13 ft 6 in in the US and 13 ft 7 in in Canada.

Does a Caterpillar 930 need oversize permits?

No. At 8 ft 4 in travel width and 31,124 lbs it rides legal on the right deck; no permits, escorts or oversize surcharges are expected.

Can a Caterpillar 930 be loaded without a crane?

Yes when it starts and drives: it loads under its own power on the trailer's ramps. If it is inoperable, toggle starts-and-drives off in the form; winch loading is priced in, never added at pickup.

How should I prepare a Caterpillar 930 for pickup?

Empty the bucket or bed, fold and secure loose parts, note fluid leaks, and confirm the dimensions against the machine as it sits: debris, unfolded attachments or missing counterweights change weight and price.

What does it cost to ship a Caterpillar 930?

Distance and the trailer class drive the price once the dimensions are set. Enter pickup and drop-off below; the rate is free, bookable and locked for 30 days.
