Lowbed Transport100 Ton Lowbed Overview
The 100 ton lowbed class is used for the heaviest plant movements, abnormal loads, large crushers, large dozers and mining equipment.
Lowbed transport must be selected according to machine operating weight, overall width, height, length, loading method, access, route restrictions and delivery schedule.
Project Plant Hire can help match the correct lowbed transport class to the equipment being moved and the conditions of the route.

Typical Applications
Machine mobilisation
Moving plant to construction, mining, quarry, roadworks and infrastructure projects.
Demobilisation
Collecting machines from completed projects and returning them to depot or the next site.
Inter-site moves
Relocating equipment between sites where the machine cannot travel safely or legally on its own.
When Not to Use This Lowbed
Do not choose a 100 ton lowbed if the machine weight, dimensions or route requirements exceed the transport class. A larger lowbed or abnormal load solution may be safer and more compliant.
Popular Trailer Options Available
Depending on availability, this transport class may include the following or equivalent trailer configurations:
- Modular heavy haul trailer
- Multi-axle abnormal load lowbed
- Hydraulic gooseneck lowbed
- Goldhofer / Nicolas type modular trailer or equivalent
Trailer supplied depends on availability, load dimensions, truck compatibility, route requirements and project timing.
Project Plant Hire Recommendation
Before confirming lowbed transport, provide the machine model, weight, dimensions, loading conditions and full route. This allows the correct trailer class to be selected and avoids delays caused by unsuitable transport capacity or route restrictions.
