When it comes to moving oversized or heavy equipment, we know that choosing the right trailer can be a matter critical to safety, regulatory compliance, and efficiency. At Absolute Multi Corp Ltd (AMC), we have over 20 years of experience with earthworks and forestry services. Heavy hauling is one of our core services, and our fleet includes both Low Boy and High Boy trucks to meet a wide range of client needs across Alberta and Western Canada.

Because no two projects are the same, we believe in making sure that you are able to have the right option for your load, your route, and your site conditions.

Why Specialized Hauling Can Matter

Our clients work in industries where time and precision are everything. Construction schedules, energy projects, and industrial operations all depend on equipment arriving on site safely and on time. That’s why we invest in the right fleet and the right people to move heavy equipment securely. Offering both Low Boy and High Boy options allows us to adapt to your project, whether you’re hauling tall machinery, working on uneven terrain, or navigating strict provincial regulations.

What Are Low Boys?

Low Boy trailers feature a lowered deck that gives us a clear advantage when transporting tall or oversized equipment. By keeping the load closer to the ground, we can often stay within standard height limits, which helps reduce permitting requirements and regulatory delays. Practically speaking, it can also help to keep the center of gravity and mass lower, thus avoiding easy tipping.

We can fit within your needs when traveling on Low Boys. Whether we’re moving equipment such as excavators, bulldozers, or large generators, we aim to provide you with the machines that could otherwise exceed maximum height restrictions on standard trailers.

What Are High Boys?

High Boys, on the other hand, are designed with a taller deck that offers superior ground clearance and coverage. This can help to make them a very sturdy and dependable choice when hauling across uneven terrain, rugged access roads, or steep grades. While they may not be suited to very tall equipment, they’re ideal when clearance and site adaptability are top priorities.

We can bring High Boys into play for your projects in remote sectors like oilfield and construction, where the work sites and roads aren’t always level or paved. The extras on top can help us protect both the load and the trailer while ensuring we can get your equipment exactly where it needs to be.

How We Help You Decide

We don’t expect our clients to immediately know which trailer may be best for their project. When you come to us with a hauling need, we can take a look with you at all the details before recommending an option:

  • Load height – Will it exceed standards or regulatory limits?
  • Terrain – Are we dealing with rough access roads or level highways?
  • Permitting – Can a Low Boy simplify the process by reducing excess height?

By evaluating these and other factors early on, we can match the right equipment to the job, ensuring your haul is compliant, efficient, and safe. With the offering of both Low Boy and High Boy trailers, we don’t have to force a one-size-fits-all solution, and can act to tailor the solution to the site.
