Whether you're moving construction machinery, industrial equipment, forklifts, vehicles, or specialty loads, our experienced operators ensure your cargo is handled with precision from pickup to delivery.
What Is Tilt and Load Transport?
Tilt and load transport uses a specialized float truck with a hydraulically tilting deck. This allows equipment to be loaded and unloaded safely without requiring cranes, forklifts, or additional lifting equipment in many cases.
The truck bed tilts downward to create a ramp, allowing machinery or vehicles to be driven or winched directly onto the deck. Once loaded, the deck returns to a level position and the cargo is secured for transport.
This method provides several important advantages:
- Safer loading and unloading process
- Reduced risk of equipment damage
- Efficient transport for heavy or low-clearance machinery
- Ability to transport non-running equipment
- Faster service without requiring additional machinery
Tilt and load services are commonly used across construction, industrial, agricultural, and commercial industries.
Float Ontario’s tilt and load trucks are capable of transporting a wide range of equipment safely and efficiently.
