what is Lowbed Trailer

A lowbed trailer (also called a lowboy trailer, low-loader, or low-bed) is a type of trailer used to haul heavy equipment and machinery. It has a deck that sits very low to the ground, which allows it to carry tall loads that would otherwise exceed height limits if transported on a standard trailer.

Key Features:

Low deck height: The bed is usually lower than other trailers, often just 18–24 inches off the ground.

Heavy load capacity: Designed to transport heavy, oversized loads like bulldozers, excavators, cranes, and industrial machinery.

Detachable or fixed gooseneck: Some lowbed trailers have a removable gooseneck (RGN), which allows the front of the trailer to detach so equipment can be driven directly onto the deck.

Axle configurations: Varies based on load requirements; more axles mean more weight can be legally carried.

Common Uses:

Construction and mining equipment transport

Wind turbine and energy sector logistics

Oversized industrial equipment hauling

Military vehicle transport
