Equipment Shipping Through The Crossroads of America
Indiana connects everything. I-65 runs north-south from Chicago to Louisville. I-70 cuts east-west from Ohio to Illinois. I-69 links Michigan and Kentucky. Every major freight route in the eastern Midwest passes through Indiana.
That geography makes Indiana ideal for manufacturing and distribution. RV plants in Elkhart, auto suppliers in Fort Wayne, steel mills near Gary, and pharmaceutical operations in Indianapolis all ship constantly.
Heavy Equipment Transport moves machinery throughout Indiana with attention to manufacturing schedules, interstate access, and tight delivery windows.
Heavy Equipment Transport is built to handle every detail — from permits to delivery — with the same level of care you expect from your own team.

Common Indiana Trucking Routes
As semi truck moving professionals in Indiana, our drivers will use several busy interstates to deliver semi trucks, including:
1. I-64
I-64 is a significant east-west route that provides access to Illinois and Kentucky throughout Indiana. The road's course is mostly rural, but it connects all four of the counties in the Evansville metro area, as well as provides access to the Louisville metro area. The highway first enters the state crossing the Wabash River, and heads through Posey before crossing the Gibson-Vanderburgh county line. It also leads through Warrick County, Spencer-Dubois, and Perry County, often switching between the central and eastern time zones before finally crossing into Crawford County and remaining in the eastern time zone for the rest of its journey. The latter portion of the route also travels through the Hoosier National Forest, taking many sharp turns and crossing many steep hills before crossing the Ohio River into Kentucky.
2. I-70
Another important east-west highway is the I-70. It crosses the south side of Terre Haute, passes through the capital of Indianapolis, and connects drivers with the Indianapolis International Airport. Once past the airport, the road curves northeast then east before crossing the White River and passing south of downtown Indianapolis. Exiting downtown Indianapolis towards the northeast, the I-70 continues to Richmond. To the northwest of Richmond, the route is joined by the U.S. 35, and both cross over into Ohio.
