How do I get a quote in Hove?
Simply fill in the form on this page with your postcode, a short description of what you need and any timing needs. Photos help but are optional.
Do large machines need special transport permits?
Most machines fit on a standard low-loader or HIAB lorry without any special permission. Very wide, long or heavy loads fall under abnormal load rules and need advance notice to the police and highway authorities, and sometimes bridge owners, before they can travel. We check the dimensions and arrange this where it applies.
