Question: We haul all sorts of freight, but I will have my hydraulic air-ride marine trailer in AZ later this week. It has plenty of capacity (12K#) but no ramps or winch. The item would have to be lifted, I'd back underneath it, and secure it to the frame rails ahead of the wheels. How sure are you regarding the weight listed? MREMarine (5/27/2007)
Question: would be glad to move. carry only liability ins. have wench. could do in 2 to 3 weeks for 1850. want a bid? (5/29/2007)

I have dealt with non steering steel wheeled machines lots of times. I have 25 years of experience, and will do you one hell of a job. qualitytransport. (6/3/2007)
Response: IF YOU CAN MATCH THE PRICE AND HAVE INSURANCE ITS YOURS TWO MOVE THANKS POWER9529 (6/3/2007)

Question: Remember the sweetness of a cheap deal is forgotten long before the bitterness of a cheap deal gone bad. I have seen this over and over again. If someone called me up and requested a price for this it would be about 4K, the price I offered to you is really my best. Insurance is available but not included in my price. Also someone has asked me about transporting a tractor, this may fill the slot offered to you. Let me know soon if you want me to transport this for you. I have to get back to the party on the tractor. Thanks qualitytransport. (6/4/2007)
Response: What will it cost me for $10,000 of insurance? Thanks power9529 (6/4/2007)
Question: If you want this shipped I am in the area only today. Cementworks (6/4/2007)
Question: Does this have enough clearance to go up ramps on a gooseneck. I have a trailer that I use to load my bobcat equipment. I know you mentioned it doesn't run. I have a winch we can use to get it up the ramps if needed. Let me know if you would. You would also be looking at about $3,500.00 to transport. This would include insurance. We have 1 million libility and 100k cargo insurance. (6/5/2007)
Question: Power9529, Insurance is available through Uship, check with uship about this. I can get a policy covering it but it would be expensive. There in something about rail equipment that makes my insurance company really hit me with super high rates. Will it be insured after it arrives? If so, then that insurance may cover it in transit. Check with your agent to be sure, Thanks Qualitytransport. (6/5/2007)
Question: Do u have a way to load this onto my Flat bed? And Unload it? You pay for the Cause. When do u want this picked up? (6/9/2007)
