We ensure safe
and efficient transport
At Wit Logistics, we perform exceptional transport services with special self-propelled and towable trailers.
This type of transport requires careful planning and in-depth knowledge of the regulations in force.
With the right precautions and years of experience in the sector, we ensure safe and efficient transport.
For international exports, sea transport is often the best choice.
We load the vehicles onto cargo ships with the self-propelled ones that can be driven on board and the towable ones that are lifted and securely fixed.
Relying on an expert in the sector is essential to optimise processes and ensure maximum safety.
Self-propelled machines have their own propulsion system, which means they do not require an additional vehicle to move. This makes them ideal for operations on large surfaces.
Why choose self-propelled and towable?
Thanks to their integrated design, self-propelled machines are often more time-efficient, as they do not require constant attachment and detachment from a towing vehicle.
These machines can be used for a variety of agricultural operations, from harvesting to tilling, often with the ability to quickly change implements.
Often equipped with advanced technology, such as automatic guidance systems and sensors for data collection, self-propelled machines offer greater control and precision.
Advantages of self-propelled
and towable machines
Both types of trailers have their own specific advantages depending on the operational needs, let’s see some of them:
- Greater Efficiency
- Versatility
- Advanced Technology
A transport is defined as "exceptional" when the loads that must be transported exceed the dimensions and weight established by the Highway Code. To move this type of load there are self-propelled and towable vehicles specific for the transport of exceptional loads.
To be considered exceptional transport, a load must exceed the gauge or mass limits established by law. Generally, these are materials for large infrastructure works, yachts, energy system components, building components or industrial machinery.
Towable vehicles are trailers that require a means of traction while self-propelled vehicles are equipped with an autonomous engine, in this case offering greater mobility in complex situations. The choice of one or the other depends on the type of load and the conditions of the route.
Generally, organizing exceptional transport with self-propelled or towable vehicles takes a few days or several weeks. Times depend on the complexity of transportation and planning.
To best avoid risks related to road safety, probable interference with traffic and structural risks for bridges or tunnels, special vehicles and equipment are used, and in specific cases the presence of a technical escort and the monitoring of experts.
