    Abstract: A system and a method for loading, transporting and unloading large, heavy field equipment to and from nontraditional operational location. The invention discloses a specially designed tilt flatbed trailer, a winch and cabling mounted near the front of the trailer bed, and heavy duty steel rollers imbedded into the flatbed surface. Initially, the trailer is positioned in an upwardly titled angle such that the rear edge of the trailer bed is near ground level next to the lead edge of the equipment. The winch cabling is attached to the equipment and pulls it over the rear edge of the trailer via a larger receiving roller. The equipment is pulled upward and onto the trailer bed until the rear edge of the equipment base clears the ground. The tilt bed is then lowered to a horizontal position. During loading, the equipment moves smoothly onto the trailer surface via the embedded rollers. To unload, the process is reversed.
