Lowboy Trailer FAQ
What is a removable gooseneck (RGN) lowboy?
An RGN lowboy has a detachable front neck that allows the front of the trailer to drop to ground level. Equipment drives onto the trailer from the front rather than requiring ramps at the rear. This is essential for tracked equipment like excavators and crawlers that can't safely use ramps. RGN trailers are more versatile but significantly more expensive than fixed-neck lowboys.
What CDL is required to pull a lowboy trailer?
A Class A CDL is required for any lowboy combination over 26,001 lbs GCWR. For loads exceeding legal weight limits, overweight permits are required from each state. Some states require designated routes for heavy equipment moves. Loads over certain widths also require escort vehicles.
