  • Pole Hauling is Our Business

    For decades, we have moved transmission and distribution utility poles across the United State and Canada with our team of drivers, dispatchers and safety personnel known for rapid emergency response and dedication to critical infrastructure projects.

  • Our Team is your Team

    Once we've earned your business and secured your freight, we treat it as though it's ours. That's just one way our team becomes an extension of yours. From dispatch to drivers, from sales to safety—you get what we expect from each other everyday: cooperation, transparency, respect and our best effort, no matter the size of the move.

What We Do

Known as “the pole haulers,” Otto Transfer’s drivers, dispatchers and safety personnel are experts at moving distribution and transmission poles as long as 125-feet long across the United States and Canada. Customers tap our fleet of self-unloaders, conventional tractors and flatbed trailers for emergency response, infrastructure projects, pole disposal, rail car unloading – and to move anything that is oversized or unwieldly.
