What Is Agricultural Equipment Transport?
It is heavy haul adapted to farm machinery: tractors, combines, headers, planters, balers, sprayers and implements moved between farms, dealerships, auctions and rural properties. Ag equipment is frequently wide — combines and planters especially — so permits and route planning around rural roads are part of the standard playbook.
Ag Moves We Coordinate
- Combines and headers between seasons
- Auction purchases delivered to the farm
- Dealer trades across states
- Planters, sprayers and tillage equipment
- Complete line relocations
How It Works
Tell Us About the Machine
Make, model, weight and dimensions. If you have a spec sheet or photos, even better.
We Plan Trailer & Permits
Our team matches the trailer — RGN, lowboy, step deck or flatbed — and coordinates any oversize permits the route requires.
Loading & Transport
The carrier loads, secures and hauls the equipment. Drive-on machines use ramps; inoperable units are winched or lifted.
Jobsite Delivery
The equipment is delivered to the yard, dealer or jobsite, offloaded and confirmed complete.
Wide Is Normal in Ag
A combine with the header off still runs wide; with duals it is wider. Headers travel on separate trailers or header carts, planters fold but often stay oversize. None of this is exotic to carriers who run ag lanes — it is Tuesday. What they need from you is the model list and where each piece sits.
Cost Factors
Heavy equipment pricing is driven by the machine and the route. These are the factors our dispatch team checks before quoting:
| Factor | Impact |
|---|---|
| Weight | Trailer requirement and axle configuration |
| Width & height | Oversize permit requirements |
| Distance | Line-haul cost |
| Loading capability | Whether ramps, a winch or a crane are needed |
| Route restrictions | Bridges, clearances and escort requirements |
How Long Does It Take?
Most equipment moves are matched with a carrier within a few days of booking — often faster on busy lanes. Transit time depends on distance, route and equipment: regional moves often deliver in 1–3 days, while coast-to-coast shipments average 7–10 days. Your logistics specialist confirms a realistic pickup window when you book and keeps you updated through delivery.
Insurance & Safety
Every carrier in the Dobie network is vetted for active operating authority and insurance before a load is assigned. Your equipment is covered by the carrier's cargo insurance from pickup to delivery, and our dispatch team verifies the certificate of insurance before every dispatch — not once a year.
Where We Coordinate It
Dobie coordinates heavy equipment transport across all 50 states, with deep operating experience in Texas, the South Texas border region and cross-border routes into Mexico. Wherever the pickup and the delivery are, one team manages the entire move.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you move a combine?
Yes — typically header-off, on an RGN or lowboy with width permits, with the header on its own trailer or cart. Both loads coordinate as one move.
What about planting and harvest season timing?
Seasonal deadlines are real in ag. Tell us the date the machine must be in the field and we plan placement backwards from it.
Do folded implements still need permits?
Often — many planters and tillage tools fold to 12–14′, which is permitted width in every state. We check the folded spec, not the brochure.
Can you pick up from a farm with soft ground?
Drivers coordinate ground conditions, approach and turning room before arrival — rural pickups are half of what ag hauling is.
