The CAT D7R Bulldozer Transport Strategy
Brian Goncharsky, Heavy Haulers' Fort Lauderdale office manager, developed a comprehensive transport plan. His expertise with oversized construction equipment was essential for this complex move. He selected a specialized RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailer featuring high-tensile steel construction and carbon steel crossbars with anti-skid surfaces, perfectly suited for the bulldozer's weight and dimensions.
Equipment Specifications
- • Length: 13.3 ft
- • Height: 17.5 ft
- • Width: 8 ft (10.4 ft with shovel)
- • Weight: 56,097 lbs
- • Transit Time: 18 hours
The Customized CAT D7R Bulldozer Hauling Solution
The loading process utilized the RGN trailer's detachable gooseneck feature, allowing the bulldozer to be driven directly onto the lowered deck. Brian's team positioned the equipment precisely in the center of the platform for optimal weight distribution and secured it with heavy-duty chain tie-downs.
Given the load's oversized status, Brian arranged:
- • Cross-state permits for oversized transport
- • Strategic deployment of pilot and escort vehicles
- • Specialized route planning to accommodate height and width restrictions
- • Experienced driver and load handler team assignment

The CAT D7R Bulldozer Transport Results
The CAT D7R was delivered safely to its service station in Jasonville, where the team executed a smooth unloading process using the detachable gooseneck feature. The client benefited from Heavy Haulers' no-deposit policy, paying only upon successful completion. Brian maintained communication throughout the entire process, coordinating with the client even after delivery.
