Need Help transporting Kubota!

[KubotaVT]

Hello everyone

I'm new to the forum (well I'm new to the registered portion of it), and I've heard a lot of great things about this place.

I'm here because I'm desperate for some help transporting a Kubota b7100 I just bought. It's in East Prarie Missouri, and I'm in VT. Pretty crazy trip, I know.

I'm just asking for help from some generous person out there to help get my new workhorse started on its journey, so shipping won't be horrendous. I don't mean to be selfish at all, but at this point I really really need help. Just a little portion of the trip would be fine, just to maybe a loading dock a ways away. You won't leave empty handed, I'll pay for your troubles. Just name your price (and please be reasonable, my budget isn't huge at all.)

THANK YOU SO MUCH TO ANYONE WHO'S WILLING!!!!


And if no one can drive the tractor, could you guys suggest a cheap effective frieght company? Or perhaps a method that helps to cut down on cost?

Again, thanks everyone so much. I'm so excited to get this tractor back home!

Depending on tires it might fit in an 8' pick-up box.

Go to YTmag.com and look at the "Hauling Schedule". You might find someone coming your direction with an empty trailer, or room on a partly loaded truck/trailer. That would be your best bet with any shipping company, to keep cost down.

Welcome to TBN.
Congrats on your investment..B7100 are working little mules.

Not sure of your VT. location,you may want to try tractor dealership for haulers or contact your local trucking company.

Good luck

I used uship.com a few years ago to find a hauler to ship a pull type plow from Illinois to CA. Cost was about $600. The plow weighed about 700 lb. Your B7100 weighs about 1100 lb and takes up roughly the same space on the flatbed as that plow.

I used the shipping price estimator on uship.com for your B7100. The average price for 1100 lb loads between your endpoints is $563 with range from $322 to $737.

Good luck.
