Moving oversized construction equipment across state lines is never a simple task — especially when the load is a Caterpillar D9 dozer , one of the most recognizable and heavy machines operating on Southwest job sites. This particular heavy haul project involved transporting a Cat D9 from Las Vegas, Nevada to Phoenix, Arizona , a route that demands careful planning, regulatory awareness, and specialized trailer configurations. While the distance between the two cities appears

There are machines that get jobs done—and then there are machines that make jobs possible. Rough terrain cranes fall squarely into the second category. Built to operate where roads disappear and conditions turn hostile, these cranes are the backbone of large-scale construction, energy development, and industrial expansion across the Southwest. Transporting them, however, is a discipline all its own. That’s where Flat Out Services quietly changed the game. While many carriers

Phoenix is not an easy place to move heavy equipment. On paper, it looks simple enough. Wide roads, sprawling suburbs, endless construction. In reality, Phoenix is one of the most unforgiving heavy haul markets in the Southwest. The combination of rapid growth, strict enforcement, heat-related restrictions, and long metro distances means that equipment transport mistakes get expensive fast. Contractors who are new to the Phoenix market often assume that moving machinery here

Every three years, CONEXPO-CON/AGG turns Las Vegas into the largest concentration of construction, mining, and heavy equipment in North America. For 2026, thousands of exhibitors will move millions of pounds of machinery into the Las Vegas Convention Center and surrounding exhibit yards, creating one of the most complex heavy equipment transportation and storage environments in the country. Moving equipment for CONEXPO 2026 is not like normal jobsite hauling. It requires spec

At Flat Out Services, expanding capability is never about owning equipment for its own sake — it’s about solving problems that other carriers simply cannot.

This trailer represents a significant step forward in our ability to move the largest, heaviest machines operating in construction, mining, energy, and

Emergency calls don’t follow a pattern. They can come in at 10 p.m., 4 a.m., or during the busiest hour of the day. But the situations feel familiar: The Excavator Breakdown Scenario A 470 excavator dies in a trench in Queen Creek. Concrete trucks are already scheduled for morning. If the machine stays where it is, the entire pour fails. Crews are waiting. You need a replacement now . The Counterweight Crisis A crane company in North Las Vegas has a spreader bar, rigging, and

By Flat Out Services — Heavy Haul Specialists in Las Vegas & Phoenix Before the sun rises over the Las Vegas Strip or across the wide open desert stretches of Phoenix, heavy equipment is already moving. Construction crews are staging for concrete, solar farms are setting up pile drivers, utility contractors are trenching before traffic hits, and industrial job sites are mobilizing machines across the Valley. Every one of these operations depends on safe, reliable equipment tr

Before most of Phoenix wakes up, before the sun turns the desert sky pink and orange, before commuters start filling the lanes of the 101 and the 202, the city’s largest machines are already on the move. Heavy haul trucking in Phoenix is a world that lives in the margins of daylight — early mornings, late evenings, narrow windows where oversized equipment can slip across the Valley before the heat or the traffic or the permitting restrictions clamp down on movement. If you st

Las Vegas is one of the most active construction regions in the United States, with nonstop growth across commercial developments, road expansions, entertainment venues, industrial parks, warehouses, solar farms, and massive public works projects. With so many machines constantly moving from site to site, heavy haul trucking in Las Vegas isn’t just a service — it’s a critical part of keeping Nevada’s construction and industrial economy moving. But hauling oversized or overwe

The Southwest’s Heaviest Corridor Few trucking routes test equipment and drivers like the stretch between Las Vegas, NV and Phoenix, AZ.

For Flat Out Services , this isn’t a challenge — it’s our specialty.Our 9-axle RGNs, 16-tire lowbeds, and Landoll tilt-decks run this route weekly, carrying everything from 988 loaders and 374 excavators to cranes and
