Need a vehicle or piece of equipment loaded or unloaded in Fox Point? Loading & unloading is when the job is getting it on or off a trailer or carrier — not a point-to-point tow.

Flat load fee, quoted before we start. On-hook insured. Call (414) 279-5510.

Local to Fox Point
What a crew that works Fox Point every week pays attention to: the corridors we run, the industrial areas we serve, and how fast a rig reaches you.
Apart from the freeway on its western border, Fox Point has no commercial through-traffic to speak of — it's a quiet, low-speed residential village. That western border is I-43 (the North-South Freeway), the main route in and out; the interchanges just outside the village stack up weekday mornings between 7 and 9 and again from 4 to 6. North Shore commuters keep Port Washington Road, North Santa Monica Boulevard and Lake Drive (WIS-32) moving locally, with signalized crossings where Port Washington meets Bradley and Dean Roads and along Lake Drive at the Bradley, Calumet, Dean and Green Tree cross-streets. The interior streets around Schlitz Audubon and Doctors Park stay calm.
14 road miles door to door from the South Side yard; Milwaukee & Waukesha counties both covered, live ETA on the call.
Across Fox Point, loading calls come from driveways, yards, and lots — a non-runner bought online, a carrier inbound, or a machine that has to ride on your trailer. We bring the tilt deck and winch to wherever it sits and strap it down on-hook insured, or unload it off a carrier with no ramps, coming in on I-43 (western border / North-South Freeway). Whether it sits near Schlitz Audubon Nature Center or over by Lake Drive / lakefront, Longacre, and Beach Drive bluffs, we bring the trailer to it and strap it to rated points.
Winter is the busy season for Fox Point loads — dead batteries, project cars that won’t start, and auction buys that have to come off a carrier in the cold. We winch them on without a running engine, any time.
Wisconsin's legal limits on the interstate run 8'6" wide, 13'6" high, and 80,000 lb gross — anything over needs a WisDOT oversize/overweight permit, and we pull it.
Wisconsin's spring thaw brings posted weight restrictions (“frost laws”) on local roads from roughly March into April — we know which routes are posted and plan the legal way in.
Because Lake Michigan runs along the village's eastern edge, Fox Point's humid-continental weather gets heavy moderation from the water. Where the wooded Lake Drive and Beach Drive bluffs rise near the Schlitz Audubon preserve, ice and cold hang on well after inland streets clear. Winter means lake-effect snow and dense shoreline fog; in spring and fall, lakeshore mornings often start fogged in and several degrees colder than anywhere just west of I-43.

Sound familiar?
Dead, locked, or out of gear in Fox Point. We winch it onto your trailer — the most common load we run.
Never flat-towed on the wheels. A full flatbed or dollies and skates so the wheels never turn — protects the drivetrain and battery pack.
Bikes, trikes & scooters upright in a wheel chock, strapped to the frame — never cranked down by the bars or levers.
Show cars, lowered, and exotic. A shallow angle so the splitter and exhaust clear — nothing on the body.
A skid steer, forklift, or mini-ex rigged to the rated lift points and chained and binder-secured.
Copart, IAA, or a marketplace pickup. We meet the carrier or hit the yard, winch it on, condition documented at the load.
Running or not, we load it
Getting it on or off your trailer or a carrier is exactly what we do — tilt deck and winch, soft straps and wheel nets, a flat load fee quoted before we start.
Call dispatch — (414) 279-5510Moving it from one place to another is a point-to-point tow — see our towing services, where we load it, haul it, and set it down.
Call dispatch — (414) 279-5510A cross-country move rides a transport carrier — we don’t haul long-distance, but we load it onto the hauler at either end, strapped and documented.

Dead, locked, or out of gear — the tilt deck drops to the ground and the winch pulls it straight on. No running engine or steering needed.
Never flat-towed on the wheels — a full flatbed or dollies and skates so the wheels never turn, protecting the drivetrain and battery.
Bikes in a wheel chock strapped to the frame; classics and lowered cars on extended ramps at a low angle — about not leaving a mark.
A skid steer, forklift, or mini-ex lifted with the right wrecker, crane, or rotator, rigged to the rated lift points and binder-secured. Equipment is a flat $200 per unit; custom items $250.
What loading & unloading covers
Loading & unloading is the load, not the haul — getting it on or off your trailer or a carrier, carefully and on-hook insured. We winch what won't run and strap it without leaving a mark.
Indoor and basement loads are case-by-case — tell us the access and we’ll say straight whether we can do it, before any truck rolls.
Secured, not dragged
The bed drops to the ground and the winch pulls a dead, locked, or out-of-gear vehicle straight on — no running engine or steering needed.
Secured to rated points with over-the-tire wheel nets — never chains on the body, so it leaves no mark.
For AWD, EVs, seized wheels, or a tight basement garage, we roll it on without turning or dragging the wheels.
Handled like it’s ours and insured if it isn’t — on-hook and garage-keepers coverage, Licensed & Insured in Wisconsin.
What it costs & why
A Fox Point load is a flat per-unit fee — vehicles $150, equipment $200, custom items $250 — quoted before we start, not per-mile. Count the items and you know the price. You hear the number before any truck rolls.
The flat load fee covers the trip and getting it on or off, strapped and documented. A tight access, after-hours work, or heavy equipment moves the number — always quoted first, no surprises.

Vehicles are $150 a unit, equipment $200, custom items $250. Anything over 10,000 lbs gets a crane and special-gear assessment up front.
A free-roller loads fast; a dead, locked, AWD, or seized vehicle takes dollies, skates, and setup.
A curbside load is quick; a tight incline, a narrow lot, or an indoor or basement pull with a GoJak adds work.
A late-night or scheduled load, plus the securing materials — wheel nets, soft straps, binders — factor into the fee.
