Case Studies
TGR has a number of case studies that have been undertaken in the past. These examples show some of the TGR Transport work and capabilities.
Combine Harvester (Header) Transport
TGR understands transporting a combine harvester is an important part of productivity during harvest. This particular header was transported over 1,000 kilometres from Walgett NSW to Rochester VIC and was harvesting again within 13 hours.
TGR is available throughout the harvest season to provide prompt transport needs. For more information please visit our contact us page or call 0408 328 431
Crane Components Road Trained to Mackay, QLD
Using multiple trucks and trailers TGR was able to load two trailers simultaneously with boom sections and counter weights for a 250 tonne Crawler Crane. The crane was dismantled and loaded onto drop deck trailers at the Port of Portland VIC destined for its next job in Mackay QLD.
With two trucks there was no time lost shuttling trailers to the VIC/NSW border to hook up the Road Train and continue north.
Drilling Rig to Ernest Henry Mine, Cloncurry, QLD
TGR was contracted to pick up this specialised mine drilling rig. It began its journey in Tasmania with TGR taking over road-freight responsibilities from Station Pier, Port Melbourne. It was a 2,500 km (approx) long haul journey north to Cloncurry, QLD.
The heavy duty bi-fold ramps on the deck-widening trailer make it safe and easy to load this type of heavy tracked machinery.
