Hotshot Services?Travel trailer moving.

Anyone have any recommendations?I have a 40 foot Park model travel trailer that I need to get from a lake about 1 1/2 hours North of Saskatoon to a seasonal campground just West of Regina.Total distance is about 400km.It should weigh a bit over 10,000 lbs with a tongue weight around 1200.

Saskatoon Hotshot Transporter? Look them up. I know they haul RV's as their major business...

I requested a quote from them but I haven't heard anything back.They seemed to be having website issues on the weekend but it is working now.

I got two quotes around $1400 and another for $1100.I emailed Saskatoon Hotshot Transporter for a quote and they never responded.I was talking to one of my brother-in-laws and he mentioned that a guy my wife went to school with did it as a sideline so we contacted him and it worked out great.He has a Dodge Sterling two ton truck pretty much dedicated for towing.We had some issues with one of the tires getting too warm so we kept it at about 80 km/h most of the way but other than that it was uneventful.

I worked for a vehicle towing company that did that quite a number of times.
