Heavy Haulers move forestry skidders and feller bunchers out of Pennsylvania Logistics Hub, PA with a clear road plan from the first call. Heavy Haulers see these machines arrive from Canada, Finland, Sweden, and Japan, often tied to OEMs and dealer buyers bringing in John Deere, Tigercat, Komatsu, Ponsse, and Caterpillar units. Heavy Haulers coordinate with different ocean carriers, shipping lines, and freight forwarders because this cargo does not come from one source or one schedule. Heavy Haulers also know the machines may be crated, coated for corrosion, blocked and tied down on the vessel, inspected on the port side, and staged in secured or bonded yards while customs release is pending. Heavy Haulers then take over only after the port gate release. Heavy Haulers plan the pickup so the machine leaves the terminal without delay. Heavy Haulers treat each unit as oversize freight that needs careful handling from the start.
Heavy Haul Transporting helps businesses coordinate the movement of oversized freight, industrial machinery, construction equipment, and project cargo throughout North America.
Forestry skidders and feller bunchers moving through Pennsylvania Logistics Hub, PA usually serve logging contractors, equipment dealers, rental fleets, and timber operators across the Northeast and Midwest. The cargo often arrives as new or late-model imports from Canada, Finland, Sweden, and Japan, with some units built for North American buyers and others brought in through dealer networks that support forestry fleets. That mix matters because each machine can vary in width, track stance, weight, and attachment setup. Heavy Haul Transporting understands that a skidder with a blade or a feller buncher with a harvesting head may change trailer choice and route limits. We also know the pickup has to respect the terminal release process, port-side inspection timing, and any staging in a secured yard before the machine is cleared for road movement. From Allentown, the load can connect to I-78, I-476, and nearby I-80 or I-81 corridors depending on destination and permit path.
Forestry skidders and feller bunchers support logging, land clearing, biomass work, and timber recovery, so demand stays tied to construction cycles, utility clearing, and forest product supply. Buyers in Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio, West Virginia, and farther south often need these machines moved fast once a sale closes or a fleet rotates equipment. That is where Heavy Haulers help keep projects moving by matching the right trailer and permit plan to the machine’s dimensions. These units are not general freight; they are heavy machinery transportation jobs that can affect jobsite schedules, dealer delivery windows, and seasonal forestry work. Heavy Haul Transporting works with shippers who need road transport only, after the machine leaves the port gate, and we do not handle cargo loading, unloading, customs brokerage, warehousing, ocean freight, or freight forwarding. For buyers and sellers, the value is in getting the machine from terminal release to the next jobsite without avoidable routing issues or clearance surprises.

Moving forestry skidders and feller bunchers calls for the right trailer under the right load conditions. Depending on height, track width, and operating weight, we may use RGNs, lowboys, step decks, double drops, or multi-axle trailers to keep the machine within legal transport limits. Flatbed trucking companies can move many loads, but oversize forestry equipment often needs more than a standard deck. A lowboy helps reduce overall height, while an RGN can make loading easier for tracked units and machines with low ground clearance. Multi-axle setups spread weight for heavier bunchers and larger skidders, especially when the route includes bridge-sensitive roads or posted weight restrictions. Heavy Haul Transporting reviews the machine’s specs, attachment profile, and tie-down points before dispatch. That lets our team choose the trailer that fits the cargo and the route, not the other way around. For this kind of equipment transport, the trailer decision is part of safe hauling oversized loads from the start.
Pennsylvania oversize transport takes planning, especially when a forestry skidder or feller buncher exceeds standard width, height, or weight thresholds. Route work starts with load measurements, then moves into permit review, bridge clearance checks, and any escort needs for over-dimensional hauling. Depending on the dimensions, Pennsylvania may require pilot cars, time-of-day restrictions, or specific travel windows. We also look at turning radius, shoulder width, construction zones, and local road restrictions before dispatch. Around Allentown, access to I-78, I-476, US-22, and nearby connections can help, but those same corridors can bring tight merges, traffic, and clearance issues that need attention. Heavy Haulers plan around utility lines, low bridges, and posted structures so the machine stays legal in transit. Heavy Haul Transporting uses route surveys and permit-aware planning to reduce reroutes and delays. That matters when a load is leaving Pennsylvania Logistics Hub, PA and heading to a dealer yard, logging site, or equipment yard in another state.

View DetailsYes. We handle road transport only after the machine leaves the port gate and is released for pickup. We do not load, unload, or manage customs. Our role is to move the oversize equipment by truck from Pennsylvania Logistics Hub, PA to the next destination.
Depending on size and weight, we may use RGNs, lowboys, step decks, double drops, or multi-axle trailers. The choice depends on height, track width, attachments, and route limits. That trailer match helps keep the move within permit and clearance requirements.
Forestry skidders and feller bunchers often exceed standard legal dimensions or weight. Pennsylvania oversize permits may be needed for width, height, or axle load. Some routes also require escorts, travel-time limits, or bridge clearance checks before the truck can move.
I-78 and I-476 are major connectors near Allentown, with US-22 and access toward I-80 or I-81 often part of the route plan. The best path depends on the machine’s size, the destination, and any posted restrictions or construction zones.
No. Our service is over-the-road trucking only. We do not provide customs brokerage, warehousing, ocean freight, or freight forwarding. We step in after the cargo is cleared and ready to leave Pennsylvania Logistics Hub, PA by road.
Dealers, logging contractors, rental fleets, timber operators, and equipment resellers use this service. Many are moving imported machines from Canada, Finland, Sweden, or Japan through the port network and need a truck carrier to deliver them inland.
We focus on proper blocking, secure tie-downs, axle placement, and route control. The machine may arrive staged in a secured yard after vessel-side protection and inspection. Once we take over, we keep the road move aligned with the load’s dimensions and permit needs.
