Hauling CASE Construction Equipment Nationwide
CASE Construction Equipment — a brand of CNH Industrial — has manufactured construction and earthmoving equipment for more than 180 years, making it one of the oldest and most recognized names in the industry. The CASE lineup covers a broad range of machine types: CX series hydraulic excavators, the iconic 580 backhoe loader series, wheel loaders, compact track loaders, skid steers, motor graders, and vibratory compactors. CASE equipment is found on highway construction projects, commercial site development, utility installations, mine reclamation operations, and agricultural earthmoving throughout the country. R&RM LLC has been transporting CASE equipment across all 48 continental states since 2011, serving contractors, equipment dealers, rental companies, and auction buyers on every kind of move — from a single compact track loader relocated across three states to a large CX800 excavator requiring full oversize and overweight permits.
CASE's distribution network spans the continental US through authorized dealers that service CASE machines and stock parts. That dealer network means we regularly move CASE equipment between dealer lots, from dealers to new owners, and from auction sites to first job sites on behalf of buyers who purchased machines through IronPlanet, Ritchie Bros., and other auction platforms. If you have a CASE machine that needs to move, call (404) 987-6225 or request a quote online.
CASE CX Series Excavators
CASE CX series hydraulic excavators range from compact mini excavators through large production machines. The CX designation covers essentially every weight class in the excavator market, making CASE one of the most versatile excavator lines we transport:
- CX17B / CX26B / CX37C: CASE mini excavators at approximately 3,800–8,200 lbs. These compact machines are common on utility installation, residential site work, and landscape grading projects. Multiple units typically travel on a single flatbed load, which makes fleet repositioning cost-efficient for rental companies. Their short tail swing designs allow loading close to the truck cab without overhanging the trailer sides.
- CX57C / CX75C / CX80C: Small excavators at approximately 12,500–18,500 lbs. Common on municipal utility projects, pipeline repairs, and small site development contracts. Flatbed or tag trailer transport; combination weights stay within legal thresholds in most states without special permits beyond oversize width authorization.
- CX130D / CX145D SR / CX160D LC: Mid-range production excavators at approximately 28,000–35,500 lbs. RGN transport is standard for this class; oversize permits for width required in all states transited. The CX145D SR is a zero-tail-swing design popular in urban and confined-site applications. Most state DOTs process standard width-only oversize permits for these machines in 1–3 business days.
- CX210D / CX220D LC / CX245D SR: Full production-class excavators at approximately 46,000–55,000 lbs. The CX210D is one of the most common 20-ton class excavators in North America and one of the CASE models we transport most frequently. RGN hauling with oversize and combination weight permits required in all states transited. The CX245D SR's zero-tail-swing design makes it attractive for urban work but its weight class demands the same permit process as standard long-carriage models.
- CX290D LC / CX350D LC / CX370D LC: Larger production excavators at approximately 64,000–84,000 lbs. Multi-axle RGN configurations handle weight distribution effectively for this range. Full oversize and overweight permits required in every state transited; bridge weight clearance verification required on any non-Interstate routing. Permit lead times for multi-state moves in this weight class are typically 3–5 business days.
- CX490D LC / CX700D ME / CX800D ME: Large and mining-class CASE excavators at approximately 108,000–176,000 lbs in standard configuration. The CX700D and CX800D are serious mining support and large production machines that typically require counterweight removal and sometimes boom disassembly for legal highway transport. We manage all permits, routing, and load sequencing for these complex moves — reach us well in advance for large CASE excavator projects.
CASE 580 and 590 Backhoe Loaders
The CASE 580 backhoe loader is one of the most iconic pieces of construction equipment ever built — virtually synonymous with the backhoe loader category worldwide. CASE introduced the 580 in the early 1960s and has continuously refined the series. Today's CASE backhoe lineup includes the 580SV, 580 Super V+, 590SN, and the large 695SV, all widely used in utilities, road maintenance, and general site work across the country. Backhoe loaders are typically among the easier CASE machines to transport due to their self-contained configuration — the loader arms and backhoe can be set to transport position and the machine towed or driven onto a trailer in a compact package. We transport CASE backhoes on both flatbed and RGN equipment depending on total combination weights and state-specific requirements. Permit requirements for standard backhoe loaders are typically straightforward: oversize width permits in states where the machine exceeds 8.5 feet wide in transport configuration.
CASE Wheel Loaders
CASE G Series wheel loaders range from the 521G (approximately 24,000 lbs operating weight) through the 1021G (approximately 52,000 lbs operating weight). The 621G and 721G are the most common CASE wheel loaders we transport — they appear frequently on aggregate operations, road construction projects, and in rental company fleets. Wheel loaders in the 621–821G range are typically transported by RGN hauling with the bucket removed to reduce transport height and comply with state bridge height clearance requirements. The large 921G and 1021G models require oversize and overweight permits and are often transported with buckets removed and counterweights reduced to manage gross vehicle weights.
CASE Compact Track Loaders and Skid Steers
CASE's compact equipment lineup — the TR and TV series compact track loaders and SV series skid steers — represents some of the most frequently transported CASE machines in the rental industry. These compact machines are moved constantly: rental companies rebalance their fleets between yard locations, contractors pick up and drop off rental units, and dealers deliver new machines to first owners. Multiple compact CASE machines typically travel on a single flatbed trailer, with 3–4 compact track loaders fitting on a standard 48-foot flatbed depending on their operating weights and transport dimensions. The SV300, TV380, and TR340 are among the compact CASE models we see most frequently. These loads are legally permitted in most states without special oversize authorization because combination vehicle weights stay within legal thresholds when hauling multiple small units.
CASE Motor Graders and Compaction Equipment
CASE motor graders — the 845B and 865B series — are used widely on road maintenance contracts, unpaved road grading, and final grade preparation on highway and site development projects. Motor graders present unique transport challenges because of their extreme length: a CASE 865B is approximately 30 feet long in transport configuration, and the blade and circle assembly extend well beyond the tractor frame. Proper load securement for motor grader transport requires securing the blade in its transport position, locking the articulation joint, and ensuring the front axle is properly supported. CASE vibratory compactors — both smooth drum and padfoot configurations — are similarly transported on RGN or flatbed equipment with blade and drum protection measures in place.
Transport Methods for CASE Equipment
- RGN (Removable Gooseneck) Hauling: The standard transport method for tracked CASE machines — CX excavators from the CX130 class through the CX490 range — as well as large CASE wheel loaders and motor graders. The removable gooseneck allows tracked machines to drive directly onto the trailer deck under their own power, eliminating the need for external crane equipment at the loading site.
- Flatbed Transport: CASE compact track loaders, skid steers, backhoe loaders, and small excavators are transported on flatbed trailers — often multiple units per load for rental company fleet moves. CASE compact equipment's relatively low profile makes flatbed loading straightforward with standard loading ramps.
- Oversize & Overweight Permits: Required for all CASE excavators in the CX210 class and above, large wheel loaders, and motor graders. We handle all permit procurement, routing, and state coordination — you do not need to manage the permit process separately. Our experience with CASE equipment transport means we know the standard transport dimensions for common models and can often begin the permit process immediately after you provide the pickup and delivery locations.
- Pilot Car Escorts: State law requires rear or front-and-rear pilot cars for loads exceeding defined width and weight thresholds — which applies to CASE excavators in the CX290 class and above. Our permit and escort coordination service arranges all required pilot vehicles for every state on the haul route.
- Multi-Load Disassembly: CASE CX700D and CX800D mining excavators require disassembly into multiple permitted loads — upper structure, undercarriage, boom, arm, counterweight. We coordinate all permits and load sequencing for these complex projects.
