RGN Heavy Haul Towing in Maryland
Equipment that cannot travel the highway under its own power needs a trailer built for it. Priority Towing and Recovery dispatches RGN (removable gooseneck) heavy haul service across Maryland, 24/7. Call (240) 780-8691 with the load type, weight, dimensions, and where it is going.
What an RGN is and why it matters
RGN stands for removable gooseneck. The front of the trailer detaches and the deck lowers to the ground, so equipment can drive on, or be winched on, from the rear at a low angle. A low loaded deck also helps with overhead clearances, which suits tall equipment.
Priority dispatches RGN heavy haul service across Maryland, 24/7, on Owned Equipment. The call starts with the load, because it decides the route, the timing, and whether an RGN or a Landoll fits better.

Planning an RGN move
Capacity: 35 tons. Our RGN trailer is rated for 35 tons of capacity.
Height, width, length, and weight decide the route and whether a permit is needed. Maryland has its own rules for oversize and overweight hauling, and a permit sets which roads the move can use and when. Tell dispatch the loaded dimensions and whether a permit is already in hand or still needed, so the route is settled before the trailer rolls.
Capacity is 35 tons, but whether a move works also depends on the machine and the route. Describe the job and dispatch will confirm on the phone whether Priority can move it. Operators are Wreckmaster-certified, and the work is licensed and insured.
Check the pickup too. Soft ground, a tight gate, or overhead lines are the usual reasons a heavy haul stalls, and a photo or description of the site helps dispatch plan around them.
What to have ready when you call
- The machine — make and type, and whether it runs and can drive onto a deck.
- Weight — the operating weight from the spec plate or manual if you have it.
- Dimensions — length, width, and height as it will sit on the trailer.
- Pickup and drop-off — both addresses, gate hours, and an on-site contact.
- Permits — needed, in hand, or unknown.
- Timing — a fixed window, or as soon as possible.
Routes RGN loads use
Heavy hauls run on the same few highways as everything else: I-95 between Baltimore and DC, the Baltimore Beltway, and I-70 toward Frederick. Lane closures and work zones change by the week, so say the route you expect and dispatch will plan around it.

If the machine is down because of an engine fault, our in-house diesel techs with dealer-level diagnostics may be able to get it running first. Start with mobile diesel mechanic or truck road service. Priority accepts EFS, ComChek, and T-Check, and has 47 reviews on PreferredMechanic.
