How much does it cost to ship a CAT 797?

[George]

Can you recommend the lowest or most affordable courier for heavy equipment here in the US?

 

[IamBruce_Driver]

Hmm.. have you called Samsara and Trackunit already? They are one of the best.

 

[Luke Gibson]

Shipping a CAT 797 isn't really a "cheap courier" job..you're looking at specialized heavy haul with escorts and permits, so costs add up fast might be worth getting quotes from heavy haul specialists like specialized transport brokers or even checking auction partners like Ritchie Bros. since they sometimes help coordinate logistics too

 

[Elixer G]

you're usually looking anywhere from $50k - $150k dpeending on distance, permits and how many broken loads it gets broken into

 

[Felipe Rances]

Shipping a Caterpillar 797 is extremely expensive because the truck is far too large to move assembled.

 

[Spencer Cawoddy]

These mining trucks are so massive that they're usually disassembled into multiple oversized loads and transported in sections.

 

[Kizzy Klozenberg]

For long-distance moves, costs can easily reach hundreds of thousands of dollars.
