Equipment Towing

Freight Towing & Delivery

Affordable and fast freight shipping using a flatbed tow truck. Our towing service isn’t limited to breakdowns and roadside assistance we can accommodate delivering heavy equipment and freight when you are in need of hauling services. 

Serving All Calgary Neighbourhoods & Beyond

We haul and deliver heavy equipment not only across Calgary but also to surrounding areas like Rocky View County, Airdrie, Cochrane, and more. Whether you’re in NW Calgary, Southeast industrial zones, or remote job sites, we provide fast response and reliable service. Our drivers know the local roads, weight restrictions, and permits required, so your delivery is safe and compliant.

What Kind of Equipment & Freight We Handle

Our heavy-haul fleet is equipped to move a wide spectrum of machinery: agricultural tractors, skid steers, forklifts, generators, portable offices, trailers, cargo pallets, and more. If your load is oversized or unusually heavy, we offer specialized equipment and crew with experience in handling such jobs. Just give us specs (dimensions and weight) and we can review whether special permit or equipment is needed.

Typical Process When You Book Equipment Delivery

1. Quote Request – Provide pickup & drop-off locations, weight, dimensions, and any special requirements (e.g. escort, permits).
2. Scheduling & Prep – We coordinate pick-up times, inspect route if necessary, prepare load securement.
3. Transport – Using flatbeds, wheel lifts, or heavy-duty trailers depending on load, safety gear employed, + securing cargo properly.
4. Delivery & Unload – Upon arrival, vehicle is unloaded or dropped at specified location; customer verifies condition. We handle damage prevention from pickup to drop-off.

Transparent Pricing & What Affects Cost

Our equipment towing pricing is based on distance, load weight & size, time of day, and any required permits. For example, for standard freight under 5,000 lbs within a 10 km radius of downtown Calgary, the rate might start at $X + $Y per km beyond. Oversized loads or after-hours service may incur extra charges; we always provide a clear, no-surprise quote before work begins.

Safety & Protection of Your Equipment

We know that heavy equipment often represents significant investment. That’s why all our flatbeds are maintained to high safety standards, with proper tie-downs, padding, and professional handling by experienced operators. Our insurance covers damage in transit, and we adhere to all Alberta regulations regarding oversized loads, weight limits, and route safety.
