Heavy Equipment Towing San Antonio

Concrete Mixer Truck Needs Heavy Equipment Towing

Here near San Antonio, we had a heavy equipment towing situation last week that was the adult equivalent to playing in a sandbox.  Remember, being a kid and playing in the sandbox. You had your dump truck and your crane and your concrete mixer truck.  Last week, we got a call, and we got to play in a real sandbox. A concrete mixer rolled over. During the rollover, it managed to shear off its axles.  When we arrive the concrete mixer truck was disabled, totally mangled and we needed to figure out how to remove it. Instead of trying to manage it in one load. Our team and the local crane company (who helped a great deal)  decided to lift it in pieces. We used our Landoll Trailer and the lifting power of the crane to get the job done. 

Thanks to the guys on the job.  It was a challenge, and we had a lot of fun.
