How Containers, Construction Equipment, and Oversized Loads Get Moved Safely With Specialty Towing in the Desert

Barnett’s Towing uses specialty towing services to recover vehicles from remote, extreme, or complex environments where standard towing would not work. This can be a particularly challenging situation in desert environments, especially during severe weather conditions. Learn more about how our specialty and heavy-duty towing services in Arizona ensure large containers, construction equipment, and oversized loads are extracted and transported safely. 

Proper Ground Preparation and Grading

When we arrive at the scene, we will survey the area to determine the best way to proceed. This may include ground preparation techniques such as addressing soft soil, uneven surfaces, or rough terrain that could cause sinking or tipping. We may also use air cushion recovery to stabilize large, heavy-weight vehicles without causing damage. 

Heavy Duty Rotating Tow Trucks for Lifting Heavy Vehicles and Equipment

Our specialty equipment includes heavy duty rotating Tow Trucks that can handle lifting, extracting, and transporting vehicles and equipment from dangerous areas. This includes ditches, sand or gravel areas, ravines, and extreme environments. We can lift vehicles, equipment, or containers onto flatbed trucks or trailers for transportation to a designated recovery area. 

Specialized Dollies for Transporting Loads Over Short Distances

We also have specialized dollies that allow us to transport oversized loads over short distances. We can use these to maneuver in tight or awkward spaces that can’t accommodate a traditional tow truck or trailer. After loading the equipment or container onto the dolly, we can move the item to a more secure vehicle for transportation.

Lowboy Trailers for Tall Machinery

Tall machinery requires extra care and specialized equipment. Lowboy trailers sit close to the ground, making it easier to ensure proper clearance for oversized loads. We can handle heavy equipment up to 80,000 pounds, ensuring it is safely towed from the area to a designated recovery spot.

Flatbed Trucks or Heavy-Duty Wreckers for Commercial Vehicles or Equipment

Our flatbed trailers and heavy-duty wreckers can tow commercial vehicles like semi-trucks, commercial trucks, tractor-trailers, and construction equipment. We lock heavy vehicles, equipment, or machinery into place with chains and binders and use direct tie-downs to prevent rolling or shifting during transport. We also secure any internal cargo or containers so that the contents are not damaged.

Multi-Axle Trailer Towing for Extremely Heavy Loads

Our fleet also includes trailers with multi-axle configuration. These are used for extremely heavy loads, ensuring the weight is distributed properly to comply with ADOT regulations. 

Rigging and Securing to Stabilize Loads During Transport

We follow all local laws regarding the transport of oversized loads and ensure that all loads are stabilized prior to transport. We plan routes carefully to optimize travel times while guaranteeing safety.
