The project involved the full disassembly of both cranes, as their massive lifting capacity rendered them too large for standard transport. Each crane body, weighing 180,000 pounds, was classified as a superload and required specialized removable gooseneck trailers accompanied by dedicated escort vehicles. Successfully navigating diverse state and local permitting requirements for both weight and width was central to the mission.
Titan Logistics Completes Complex 2,000-Mile Superload Transport
Navigating eight states and 2,000 miles, Dallas-based Titan Worldwide Logistics recently delivered two 90-ton Demag CC 2500 crawler cranes from Corpus Christi to Seattle. The operation required 52 distinct truckloads and meticulous regulatory coordination to move $3 million worth of heavy equipment without a single safety incident.
Titan Worldwide Logistics executed the move on an accelerated timeline, conducting an on-site assessment within two weeks of the initial contact and launching the project inside a month. The entire fleet of 52 truckloads was dispatched over a two-week window, with final delivery occurring just one week after the equipment entered transit. This operation underscores the firm's logistical capacity for managing high-stakes, multi-state freight for the energy and industrial sectors.
