Heavy Equipment Hauling in Philadelphia, PA.

Lowboy (drop-deck) has a fixed deck height and is used for self-loading equipment that drives on. RGN (removable gooseneck) detaches at the front to create a ramp from the ground — essential for non-running equipment, oversized lift heights, or equipment that can't drive on. We confirm equipment dimensions and condition before dispatching the right trailer.

Yes. All three are routine. Cross-border moves (PA to NJ via Walt Whitman or Ben Franklin, PA to DE via I-95) require coordinated permits — our permit clerk handles the multi-jurisdictional filing. Same-day permits available for standard envelope moves; 24-48 hours for oversize/overweight specialty.

Yes, for moves requiring civilian or police escort. Civilian pilot cars dispatched from our network on the same notice as the haul. Police escort (Philadelphia, NJSP, DelDOT troopers) coordinated through the permit window — generally a 48-hour advance for state police.

Standard equipment haul up to 80,000 lbs gross. Heavy specialty equipment up to 200,000+ lbs requires multi-axle RGN configuration and route engineering — we handle these on a project-permit basis. Bridge-load-rating analysis included in route planning for oversize moves.

Loading is the equipment owner's responsibility unless we contract for it. Our drivers are CDL-A certified to operate most rolling equipment but may not be licensed for crane operation or specialty lifts. We confirm loading arrangement with the customer before dispatch.

Average dispatch-to-arrival in Philadelphia is 38 minutes for mobile truck repair. Closer to 25 minutes inside the I-95 / I-76 / I-676 box, longer for the Main Line and South Jersey crossings. We track every call and post real averages, not marketing fluff.

Yes, those are our highest-volume service zones. Schuylkill breakdowns require PSP coordination for safe-pullout protocol on shoulderless stretches; Walt Whitman recoveries require DRPA credentials. Our dispatchers handle both handoffs, and we have rescuers stationed on both the Pennsylvania and South Jersey sides.

Every Road Rescue Network rescuer in Philadelphia is required to maintain current general liability, automobile liability, workers comp, and (where applicable) garage-keepers insurance. We re-verify every renewal cycle. Expired insurance = automatic suspension from dispatch.

Yes. We service national accounts with consolidated invoicing, fleet-card billing, and a single point of contact. Most national fleets onboard in under 48 hours. Reach out via the form on this page or call our dispatch line.

24/7/365. There is no after-hours surcharge for our network, rescuers quote the same rate at 3am as at 3pm.

We track the active work-zone schedule daily and route service trucks to approach from the contractor-MPT-cleared direction. If the breakdown is inside a closed work zone, our dispatcher coordinates with the contractor's MPT lead before our unit enters.

We dispatch routinely to TA Bordentown (I-295 Exit 57A), Pilot #228 Bensalem (I-95 Exit 37), Love's #389 Carneys Point NJ, the King of Prussia Service Plaza, and TA Lamar (I-80 Exit 173). Most of our service trucks know these locations by sight.

Most DPF regen issues we can resolve roadside with a forced regen and a cleaning of the differential pressure sensor. Full DPF removal/cleaning happens at our partner shops in Bensalem and Plymouth Meeting. We'll tell you upfront which path we're taking.

Standard service-call dispatch fee runs $155-235 in the Philadelphia metro depending on time of day and service type. Heavy-duty towing starts around $470 for in-county moves. We give a confirmed quote before the truck rolls, no surprises on arrival.

If we determine on-scene that the truck can't be fixed roadside in a reasonable window, we coordinate the tow with one of our heavy-duty network rescuers. Many of our service trucks dispatch alongside a wrecker so there's no second response time.
