Length will be an issue as well. Most lowboy trailers have a 29" well.....add 12" for
the wheels.....41" to the rear bumper.
The only real option would be a stretch lowboy.............

Like others said power only be the best way

Or take the wheels, tires and maybe the landing gear off the reefer? Wouldn’t be pretty but doable if not a little long? Reefer axles in the front of the well and the kingpin hanging off the back of the lowboy?
probably cost 2x what a power only truck would cost to bring it to you?kylefitzy Thanks this. -
Use 3 forklifts, one on each side in the front, and one at the back, back under it until the landing gear touches the drop, and take the wheels off, or load one of them and it will pay the freight for the other.

A power only would be cheaper than a pilot car. 2 power only rigs would be cheaper than you bouncing down to load and haul it back plus the permits and pilot cars.
JolliRoger and Tug Toy Thank this. -
Two F-150 Pickups. Weld a bar across the bed to mount a fifth wheel. Two "Bubba'a" from GA will haul them for you for a case of beer each.
Dino soar, Studebaker Hawk, WildTiger1990 and 5 others Thank this. -
Any good recommendations on power only folks?
One trailer is just outside of Atlanta the other is at the Ritchie Bros lot in Orlando. Going to Denver area.Last edited by a moderator: Sep 10, 2020
