Direct answer
What does a Lowboy dispatch service do?
A Lowboy dispatch service helps qualified carriers evaluate heavy-equipment freight, negotiate available terms, communicate with brokers, and coordinate accepted loads. For a low boy move, Skyline organizes the carrier-provided configuration, freight dimensions and weight, loading method, height, route, schedule, and permit or escort requirements; Skyline does not issue permits, and the carrier retains final approval.
