Types of Spreaders We Ship

As a dedicated freight forwarder, we transport a variety of these machines, designed to meet specific needs in the market.

Fertilizer

Broadcast

These use spinner discs or pendulum tubes to distribute the substance. They offer simplicity and speed, covering a wide area quickly.

Fertilizer

Drill

These place the fertilizer directly into the soil next to the seeds, ensuring the products are used efficiently with minimal waste.

Fertilizer

Pneumatic

They work very precisely and are unaffected by wind, making them ideal for precise application levels.

Manure

Solid

Manure containing more than 20% solids by weight is distributed by a dispensary mechanism. These rugged machines are built to handle heavy wear.

Manure

Liquid

These apply liquid manure to the surface or inject it into the earth, often utilizing a tank system to fill and distribute the load.

By Mounting

Towed

Attached to a tractor using a hitch. They have their own wheels and are pulled behind the towing vehicle, making them easy to connect and disconnect.

By Mounting

Mounted

Attached directly to the tractor. They are integrated into the vehicle’s structure and fit securely for better maneuverability in tight spaces.

Self-Propelled

Have their own engine and wheels. They provide higher productivity and allow for more precise application, often used in large-scale commercial operations.

How Much Does it Cost to Ship a Spreader?

While there is no universal price, we can outline the primary factors that influence the final cost of shipping:

Mode of transportation: Air charters command a higher price point compared to ocean or ground transportation options

 

Distance: Shipping equipment across the country is generally more economical than transporting it overseas to a distant location

 

Additional expenses: These may include insurance premiums, special permits, customs duties, and resulting fees from route deviations

Size and Weight: The heavier the machinery and the larger the size, the higher the shipping expense

 

Season: The shipping industry experiences high and low seasons, which directly impact the final cost

International Shipping of Spreaders

Roll-on-Roll-off (Ro-Ro)

This is a streamlined method of shipping where machinery is driven directly onto and off a ship. It is ideal for self-propelled units

Full-Container Load (FCL)

This implies that the entire container is exclusively reserved for your spreader shipment. It is a popular choice for equipment transportation due to the protection and control it offers against the elements

Flat Rack

An excellent choice for equipment transport, particularly those that are oversized or have dimensions exceeding standard container limits

Air Cargo

The fastest method for transporting machinery or its parts, though it comes at a high cost

International Shipping Compliance, Regulations, and Restrictions for Spreaders

Regulations vary significantly by nation, but the most common requirements include:

  • Export control: Adherence to ITAR, EAR, and similar frameworks
  • Import regulations: Tariffs & duties, non-tariff barriers, safety standards, and customs clearance procedures
  • Transport regulations: Accurate shipping documentation, dangerous goods protocols, weight and dimensions restrictions, and insurance
  • Technical standards: Variances in safety standards, emissions, and noise regulations
  • Phytosanitary certificates: Mandatory for farm equipment to prevent pests and diseases. The machine must be free of earth, sand, and organic materials

Spreader Moving Services Across The Country

Flatbed

These trailers provide a foundational, open platform for securing and hauling spreaders efficiently

Step-Deck

Featuring a lowered rear platform, this trailer type offers the necessary clearance to transport equipment legally without necessitating special height permits

RGN (Removable Gooseneck)

The most significant benefit of RGN trailers is their ability to carry high loads and large agricultural machinery

Restrictions on Moving Spreaders

Moving machinery over extended distances involves various restrictions and regulations, including:

  • Road regulations: Adherence to speed limits, width and height restrictions, and road use permits
  • Transport regulations: Requirements for oversized load permits, escort vehicles, precise route planning, and liability insurance
  • Additional regulations: Seasonal travel restrictions, weight limits per axle, and specific local municipal regulations
