Wondering what would you do ?!

I've loaded them, as long as your not trying to spin it or slide it over it's not hard on the floor. Some guys put down belting or something.
At the end of the day it's your trailer, do what you feel is best.Dadetrucking305, Long FLD, Bean Jr. and 3 others Thank this. -

I load the same machine out of baltimore all the time nothing happened to my trailer,unless ur doing zero turns i dont c how u can do any damage
-
I'd have been worried too.
-
Beat me to it. Was gonna say I've loaded several similar sized dozers on step decks in Baltimore no issues.
-
I would load it. Those grousers hardly put down any pressure. Might make some scratches, but not going to tear anything up just straight on and back off. Do you carry dunnage? Could roll up on that.
Did you go to that shipper to pick up the dozer?Dadetrucking305, Trucker61016 and cke Thank this. -
Used to work for an oilfield company that loaded theirs onto an aluminium trailer every day. Never hurt it once over about 3 years. Well everyday is an overstatment it was about once every week or two getting moved from job to shop to job

You booked a D4 and what did you think it would have tracks made of marshmallow?
