Start with the machine details
Send the equipment type, make, model, year if known, and whether attachments are included. If you do not know exact specs, clear photos and a model plate can still help.
- Machine type, make, and model
- Year or model plate if available
- Attachments, buckets, forks, blades, or implements
- Track or tire condition
- Any modifications that change size or weight
Measure what affects transport
Length, width, height, and weight are the details most likely to affect trailer fit, routing, loading, and quote review.
- Overall length
- Overall width including attachments
- Overall height
- Estimated or listed weight
- Whether attachments can be removed
Describe pickup and delivery access
A good route review needs more than city names. Yard access, road width, loading surface, gates, and site contacts can all matter.
- Pickup and delivery city or community
- Yard, farm, jobsite, auction, or dealer lot
- Loading space and surface conditions
- Gate, driveway, or road restrictions
- On-site contact information
Photos that help
Photos are useful even when specs are available. They help confirm condition, attachments, loading requirements, and whether anything obvious may affect transport.
- Front, rear, and both sides
- Close-up of attachments
- Tracks, tires, or undercarriage
- Model plate if available
- Pickup area or loading access
