Agricultural & Farm Equipment Hauling & Machinery Transport
Wisconsin and Illinois represent the agricultural heartland of the Midwest, requiring specialized transportation solutions during harvest, planting, and equipment auctions. JS Towing operates as a trusted direct-carrier farm equipment and industrial hauling service across Southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, delivering safe, on-time farm machinery relocation across state lines.
Whether you purchased a wide-track combine tractor at a farm auction in Rockford, need to move agricultural sprayers across Walworth or Rock County fields, or require seasonal equipment transport along Interstate 90 and Interstate 94, our heavy haul fleet provides upfront, guaranteed pricing.
Specialized Agricultural & Equipment Trailers
Farm machinery comes in wide, tall, and unconventional shapes that demand low-profile, multi-axle trailer configurations:
- Removable Gooseneck (RGN) & Lowboy Trailers: Essential for high-clearance combines, large articulated 4WD farm tractors, and self-propelled sprayers. Detachable front gooseneck allows ground-level drive-on loading directly in farm staging yards.
- Step-Deck & Drop-Deck Trailers: Perfect for medium-sized utility tractors, balers, planters, seeders, and tillage equipment requiring lower deck height for bridge clearances.
- Flatbed Heavy Equipment Transports: Versatile flatbeds equipped with heavy-duty chain tie-downs and rub rails for agricultural implements, skid steers, grain carts, and irrigation units.
- Winch-Equipped Recovery Transports: Capable of loading non-running farm equipment from auction yards or field breakdowns directly onto our transport decks.

Frequently Asked Questions About Agricultural Equipment Hauling
Can you transport wide-track combines and dual-wheel farm tractors?
Yes. Our RGN lowboy trailers feature wide outriggers and specialized heavy decks designed to support wide dual-wheel tractors, combines, and tracked agricultural machinery safely within permitted widths.
Do you pick up directly from farm equipment auctions like Ritchie Bros or local farm sales?
Yes. We coordinate directly with auction yard managers across Southern Wisconsin and Northern Illinois, providing buyer release verification, dock loading, and direct delivery to your farm.
What preparation is needed before transporting farm implements on the highway?
We recommend folding and pinning all hydraulic wings, booms, and planting arms into their transport positions. Check that no loose grain or field debris is left on the machine, and secure any detachable monitors or cab accessories.
Are there seasonal weight restrictions on rural county roads during spring thaw?
Yes. Both Wisconsin and Illinois enforce spring weight limit postings ("frost laws") on many secondary county and township roads. Our logistics team checks local road weight limits and plans approved truck routes directly to your farm gate.
