Our 2020 one ton Ford dually

from storage to your home, to the lake
or seasonal site, for work, for selling
or to a repair facility for warranty
or damage repairs.
*maximum legal size limits apply

Since
2010 we have moved
over 1,000
RVs.
We move
RVs to and from
Manitoba, Saskatchewan,
Alberta and British Columbia.
On specific need we can do a move to/from the Yukon.
We do not go into the U.S. nor east into Ontario.
For the safety of your trailer, our truck and
us, we reserve the right not to move a trailer
when the wind is at a dangerous level.
When your
trailer is in tow
it is covered under my
commercial liability insurance
which is $2 million.
Your trailer
needs to be plated or
have a permit for moving in Sask. and
needs to be insured for loss other
than liability. The level of
insurance
for fire, theft, collision or upset
and the deductible you
choose is entirely
up to you.
You may wish to consult your
insurance agent in this regard.
To date we have never had a claim.
Note: To
move your trailer,
we need to ensure it is done with
the legal
owner's authority. You
should be prepared
to show
the trailer's registration.
Permits are
available from SGI.
We require the original permit.
SGI has temporary insurance
coverage for $11.00 for 7 days
when moving
a trailer that
is
located
outside Saskatchewan.
Example: A trailer located in Manitoba and
coming to Saskatchewan requires a Manitoba permit.

Park entry fees, toll charges, etc.
are not necessarily included.
Hotel costs may be added for
return trips over 800 kms.
Book early to
get the
moving date that best suits you.
Prepayment is required for all
moves.
We do not confirm a date until prepaid.
If you pick a date and we can do the move on
that date, make payment immediately or someone
else might book and pay for the date you want.
We work on a first paid, first served, basis.
Accepted forms of payment are cash
or interac e-transer
payment
through
your bank or credit union.
To keep our
costs down, we do
not accept credit cards.
We do not accept cheques.
For e-transer
payments use our email
address which is: jrsports@sasktel.net
We have auto-deposit thus no password is required.
I hold a class 1**CDL (commercial
drivers
license) with air brake
and motorcycle
endorsement and have a 45+ year
accident free driving record.
**My license allows me to move any
RV trailer of any size and weight.
Please note:
If you only hold a regular class 5 driver's
license and
your trailer
has a rated GVW
(gross vehicle weight)
over 10,000 lbs
(4600 kgs), you cannot legally tow it.
You may be denied insurance coverage
in the event
of a claim, you may be
ticketed or you may be shut down on the
side of the highway.
Do not put yourself
in a position that will
cause you grief.
For more information
contact
SGI or go to SGI's website here
You
can find the rated GVW sticker of most
trailers
on the left side of the trailer near the
front end.
If not there, look on an inside
cupboard door.

Note:
Trailer
must be no older than 15 years,
in good mechanical condition, with brakes
and all lights working. ie:
No junk.
Before departure, we inspect the
outside of the trailer to make sure
everything is working and secure but
it is the owner's responsibility to make
sure all items inside are safe and secure.
Fifth wheel and
travel trailers must
have
a properly charged battery installed
for
break-away brakes which is a
legal requirement.
Should we
arrive to tow your trailer and
it does not meet safety requirements, we
will not complete the move and you
may forfeit any money paid. We are
very easy to deal with and we are
very accommodating, but moving
someone's property is a very
serious business and we take that
responsibility very seriously.
Upon arrival at your destination we don't just drop your
trailer and drive away. We ensure your trailer is level,
that there are no trees, electrical boxes, posts, etc. that
will be in the way of your slides or basement doors and
we will stay until you are comfortable with all aspects
of your trailer. To facilitate levelling your trailer, you
should have on hand as many as 12 blocks.
The blocks are typically 2" X 8" and 12" to 18" long.
You will likely need one or two for the front jack on a
travel trailer or two for each landing gear foot on a fifth
wheel trailer. You'll also want one or two under each
wheel and one or two for each stabilizing jack.
We will not tow a trailer that is
loaded beyond its rated GVW.
Again, you may forfeit any money
paid if the weight can't be reduced.
ie:
If you're moving across country,
don't load
your trailer down with all
your books,
tools, exercise
weights, etc. Should your effects
include firearms and ammunition
we can legally
possess them
for your
move with the exception of handguns.
We tow
trailers and we are very good
at what we do. We do not break camp,
lift stabilizer jacks, pack up camp
chairs, etc. When we arrive to move
your trailer it should be ready to go.
If you need us to do any of the
foregoing let us know and we can
adjust the cost accordingly.
Note: If you are having a new trailer
delivered and
there's a trade-in trailer to go
back to the dealer,
you must have everything
out of your old trailer
by the time we arrive
with your new trailer.
We do not help transfer
the contents of one trailer
to another.
In the past, owners have had everything
off
the ground and under a tarp or boxed up.
Boxes are available at most liquor stores for
free.
We can usually quote an
arrival time within +/- 15 minutes.
We do our best
to spot your trailer where
you want it but a 30 foot trailer will not
fit in a 25 foot spot. Nor can we twist and
turn as tight as a bobcat might.
Please take this into consideration.
We DO NOT tow into the older part of
Sherwood Forest, the older part of Katepwa
Beach, or the heavily overgrown area of Craven
World
campgrounds. There is just too much
overgrowth of trees and it is impossible
to maneuver a trailer under these conditions.
At
Sherwood Forest & Katepwa campgrounds
you may be able to
arrange for a bobcat to do the
finesse maneuvering.
We will move your trailer
to and from
the parking lot of these campgrounds.
No charge for
use of 4 wheel drive if needed.
Additional fees may be charged for such
eventualities as
flat tire change, acquiring a
replacement tire if no spare
is available,
including the charge for the replacement
tire, or the requirement to use tire
chains in snowy or
muddy conditions.
Be
sure your tires are properly
inflated and wheel bearings are
greased and in good shape.

vehicle' wiring
schematic, you'll
find one of the best ones here.
