Loading Methods for Plant & Machinery

Every machine is different, so the safest loading method is selected based on the equipment and site conditions.

Ramp Loading

Ideal for machines that can be driven or rolled safely onto the vehicle using loading ramps.

Winching

Suitable for non-running or difficult-to-move machinery where safe winching is possible.

HIAB Crane Loading

Used where machinery can be safely lifted using suitable lifting points and a vehicle-mounted crane.

Forklift or Telehandler

Suitable where lifting equipment is available on site to safely load or unload the machine.

Flatbed Transport

Ideal for machinery that can be loaded safely using ramps, a forklift, crane, or other suitable equipment.

Low Loader Transport

Larger or heavier machines may require a low loader or step-frame trailer, which can be arranged through our trusted transport network.

We Assess Your Requirements

We review the machine's weight and dimensions, how it will be loaded and unloaded, and whether the site access suits the vehicle.
