We have hydraulic carriers!

Hydraulic carriers: you need them, so we are building them.

Hydraulic carriers are crucial in modular transportation because they're ideal for moving prefabricated modular buildings.

Modular logistics require specialized hydraulic modular carriers designed to haul over-sized and heavy loads. These carriers' hydraulic systems can raise the trailer deck to gently load the module without the use of other lifting equipment.

Once loaded, the modules are securely strapped and secured to the trailer for transportation. Unloading at the staging yard or job-site involves carefully lowering the modules into place using the hydraulic system. Precision placement is essential.

State-Of-The-Art Equipment

State-of-the-art hydraulic carriers streamline the entire modular transportation process. Our modular transport carriers facilitate the efficient delivery of prefab modules from factory to site for rapid and accurate on-site assembly.

We can provide all modular trailer types for transporting your hydraulic, pods, or panels. We have designed and manufactured two different modules for your use.

Trailers: FAQs

What are outriggers and why are they so important in transporting modules?
Outriggers are horizontal support structures on hydraulic trailers that are crucial in transporting modules. They help to distribute the weight of the module over a larger surface area and reduce stress on weaker parts of the structure, such as the run joists. This ensures the module's structural integrity is maintained and minimizes the risk of damage or breakage during transport.
What are the maximum module sizes for Stream Modular's hydraulic trailers?
Stream Modular's hydraulic trailers can transport modules up to 70' to 74' in length with a 2' - 4' overhang depending on the engineering of the modules. The maximum width is 16 feet, and the legal height range is 10' 9" - 11' 4" without permits for most locations. For modules exceeding 11' 4" in height, over height (OH) permits are required.
