When your skid steer suddenly stalls mid-job on a construction site or at a residential grading project, the downtime can cost both time and money. That’s where Sheridan Bros Towing OKC comes in — your trusted local partner for skid steer towing, compact loader transport, and construction machinery hauling across Oklahoma City.
Whether you’re managing a major build downtown or a private landscaping project near Lake Hefner, knowing how to prepare for and handle skid steer transportation ensures your operations stay on schedule.
How to Prepare for Skid Steer Towing Oklahoma City
Proper preparation before towing a skid steer is key to preventing further damage and ensuring safety during transport. Here’s how to do it right:
- Check the condition of your skid steer: Inspect tires, attachments, and fluid levels before loading.
- Secure attachments: Detach or properly lock buckets, augers, or forks to prevent movement during towing.
- Choose the right tow vehicle: Always use a heavy-duty wrecker or flatbed capable of handling your machine’s weight.
- Load safely: Use ramps or lifting equipment designed for heavy machinery transport.
- Verify legal compliance: Ensure weight distribution and load limits meet Oklahoma transport regulations.
At Sheridan Bros Towing OKC, our certified operators handle every step — from winching and loading to strapping and delivery — ensuring your skid steer towing service is seamless and damage-free.
Skid Steer Towing for Residential and Commercial Projects
Skid steers play vital roles in both residential and commercial environments. Whether you’re building a retaining wall in Edmond or working a large-scale site near Bricktown, our compact construction equipment towing expertise covers it all.
- Residential Use: Transporting skid steers for landscaping, driveways, grading, or small home renovation projects.
- Commercial Use: Moving multiple skid steers or related construction machines to large development sites or warehouses.
We understand that skid steer transport demands precision. That’s why we operate along key routes such as I-35, I-40, I-44, and the Kilpatrick Turnpike, ensuring fast arrival times across the greater Oklahoma City area.
Preventing Equipment Damage During Transport
One of the most overlooked aspects of skid steer towing is protecting your investment from potential transport damage. Simple preventive steps make all the difference:
- Use soft straps or tire protectors to prevent scuffs.
- Keep tie-down angles under 45 degrees for stable load balance.
- Always use a licensed towing specialist — uncertified operators risk damaging sensitive hydraulics or undercarriages.
Sheridan Bros Towing OKC’s heavy-duty fleet is equipped with low-profile flatbeds and reinforced chains, ensuring each haul is both secure and compliant with DOT standards.
