Combine and agricultural machinery transport

We handle the whole process: we obtain the abnormal load permits for every country on the route and run the route survey before departure. We check the dimensions, the mass restrictions and the sensitive points along the way in advance, and where relevant we also arrange the escort vehicles. The dedicated project manager coordinates the entire documentation, so that you do not have to deal with the paperwork.

The quote is a project price that includes the transport, the abnormal load permits, the route survey and, where necessary, the escorts and the CMR insurance. The price depends on the dimensions and the weight of the machine, on the distance, on the season and on access at the loading or unloading point. We tell you from the outset what is included, so no unexpected costs appear along the way.

We choose the equipment according to the dimensions and the weight of the machine, from lowboy trailers and detachable gooseneck trailers through to extendable platforms for long pieces. For combines and high-power tractors we usually use low-deck trailers, which reduce the overall height and make loading easier. We coordinate this equipment through our network of verified partners.

Most of the time yes, because a combine with the header fitted exceeds the width permitted on the road. In practice the header is removed and carried separately, and the combine either stays within the size limits or moves under the abnormal load regime. We agree from the outset, together with you, what is removed and how the machine is reassembled at destination.

We recommend contacting us 2 to 3 weeks before the critical harvest or sowing window, to secure the availability of the right equipment and of the permits. In peak season the demand for transport rises, so planning ahead protects your deadlines. For urgent situations we look quickly for solutions through the partner network, so the machine arrives before the critical dates you have given us.

You do not need infrastructure of your own: we use detachable gooseneck or ramp trailers, which self-propelled machines can drive straight onto, and for heavy items we arrange lifting equipment where relevant. Before the transport we check access to the farm, including on unpaved or narrow rural roads, and agree the nearest safe loading point. We coordinate the delivery door-to-door, from the collection point through to the destination farm.
