It takes an experienced carrier with the right equipment to ship heavy machinery like wheel loaders and telehandlers safely and securely. FR8Star makes it easy for shippers to find professional haulers who can transport loads no matter the size or distance.

Found a tractor you want to buy through AuctionTime.com from a seller in Indiana, but you live in South Dakota? Have an out-of-state buyer worried about transportation? Those might sound like headaches, but with FR8Star, moving heavy machinery, trucks, or other heavy assets—or even containers, pallets, or cattle—is quick and easy.

Shipping a heavy-haul load like a farm tractor, semitruck, or bulldozer clearly isn’t a simple matter of stuffing it in a box, licking a few stamps, and dropping it off at the post office. There are truck and trailer considerations, loading and unloading particulars, fees and permits, and other details to work out. It’s no wonder many equipment buyers dread the process. That’s why shippers use FR8Star.

Arranging heavy-haul transport for oversized and overweight equipment like dozers, excavators, and wheel loaders can consume a lot of time—a precious asset that’s already in short supply. FR8Star addresses this by removing the hassles traditionally involved in booking heavy-equipment transport. The service’s automated process makes it easy to connect with experienced professional carriers and receive a shipping estimate in just minutes based on specific load details and route requirements.

Creating opportunities for businesses to grow and become more efficient is what Sandhills Global’s products and services–including TractorHouse, AuctionTime, and FR8Star–are all about. Take, for example, Outdoor Power Source (OutdoorPowerSourceKY.com), a lawn, garden, and farm equipment seller in Elizabethtown, Kentucky, that also offers parts and a service department. Years ago, customers didn’t know what equipment the company had for sale unless they drove by the store or called to ask, says Matt Bewley, director of sales.

The staff at Drews Parts, located in Anderson, Indiana, are parts encyclopedias. “Between the three of us, we have probably 50 years’ worth of knowledge in parts, and it’s not just part numbers,” says owner Kelly Drews. With nearly 30 years in business, they have a wealth of experience, and they make sure someone’s always there to answer the phone to get customers what they need. “Being a used parts distribution center, we have a lot of the parts others don’t have,” says Drews, noting that in addition to selling new and used parts and attachments, the company parts out machines.
