HEAVY HAUL
FROM THE "SUPER" LONG OR WIDE TO
THE "SUPER" HEAVY, WE HAVE THE PERSONNEL AND THE
EQUIPMENT TO MOVE ALMOST ANYTHING, ANYWHERE.
WE CAN ALSO CUSTOM FABRICATE A TRAILER TO MEET YOUR
SPECIFIC NEEDS.
The pictures below are from a 2004
project which involved over 7 months of planning,
surveying and working with the shipper and receiver as
well as a multitude of local, county and state
officials.

| These
tanks are 63' long x 21' in diameter and weight
77,000 lbs each making our overall loaded
dimensions 165' long x 21' wide x 23' tall. |
| |
| Their 946 mile journey to
Cedar Rapids, Iowa took just over 3 weeks from
the time the trucks were loaded until they
arrived at their destination. |
|
 |
| Moving them 3 at a time
required 17 Daystar personnel along with
hundreds of power company, telephone, rail road
and other utility personnel. |
|
 |
| Each driver and rear
steersman communicate via radio as turns are
carefully navigated. Utility personnel monitor
overhead clearances while escorts control
traffic and monitor ground clearance. |
|
 |
| While many other carriers
told the manufacturer that this move could not
be done, Daystar rose to the challenge and moved
6 of these tanks in two trips over the summer of
2004. We will always be proud of the men and
women who completed this job without so much as
a scratch on any of the tanks and with no
personnel injuries. |
