Frequently Asked Questions About Platinum Towing & Transport

What is the process for construction equipment transportation?
The process for transporting construction equipment involves several steps. Initially, a pre-haul weight assessment is conducted. The equipment is then loaded onto appropriate vehicles such as flatbeds, lowboys, or multi-axle trailers. Route planning and permit acquisition follow. Finally, the load is secured safely in compliance with regulations.
Do I need permits for oversized equipment or heavy loads in Missouri?

Can you tow a semi-truck with the trailer still attached?
Yes, it is possible to tow a semi-truck with the trailer attached using integrated heavy-duty tow trucks. However, in certain situations involving damage or clearance issues, it may be necessary to separate the tractor from the trailer.
Do you handle accident recovery for semis and heavy equipment?
Our heavy-duty recovery services encompass a range of scenarios including winch-outs, rollovers, load shifts, accident cleanup, off-road recovery, and operations involving hazardous materials.

Our heavy-duty towing services include load transfers, load shift corrections, cross-docking operations, and airbag recovery for overturned or imbalanced loads.
Can you tow non-running or inoperable heavy equipment?
We are equipped to transport non-operational or severely damaged machinery using heavy-duty flatbeds, rotators, and specialized lifting equipment.
