Your Best Choice for Flatbed and Dry Van Transportation
Sloan can handle a wide variety of volumes, from large to small and anywhere in between. We also offer logistics coordination and management; van or flat Michigan heavy haul; over-dimensional shipments; full truckload (FTL) and less than truckload (LTL) flatbed and van shipments; and bulk commodity shipments. Indoor/outdoor warehousing and trans-loading are also available. A sampling of Sloan’s specializations includes the steel, refractory, automotive, building, landscaping and mineral industries.
When you first contact Sloan Transport, we set to work immediately to determine exactly how we can meet and exceed your expectations. We begin by asking questions regarding the commodity being shipped to determine specifics such as value, dimensions, and time frame for job completion. If your shipment requires measuring or if more information is necessary, we may visit your job site or facility. After providing a straightforward estimate of cost and timeline, we assign the proper trucks to perform the job in an efficient, timely manner.

What should I do with my jewelry and other valuable items?
Items of extraordinary value such as jewelry, money, antiques, and stamp collections
can be included in your shipment, provided that you notify your local moving representative
of these items before packing and moving day. It is strongly recommended that you carry
irreplaceable and expensive articles with you, or make alternate arrangements for their
transport.
In the moving industry, items worth more than $100 per pound are considered to be articles
of "extraordinary value.” To be assured that a claim involving these articles is not limited
to minimal liability, complete and sign your mover's high-value inventory form.
Also, be sure to sign the "Extraordinary Value Article Declaration" box, if applicable, on
your Bill of Lading.
Each mover has a slightly different procedure to follow as it relates to high-value items.
Ask your relocation specialist to provide you with an explanation of their company's process.
This is a confusing (but important) task, so be sure that you clearly understand the rules
prior to load day.
How do I prepare my appliances for moving?
Appliances such as washers, dryers, and refrigerators must be disconnected, and the washer
must have a stabilizer installed. Again, your estimator can help you understand how these
items are properly serviced. All local moving companies have business relationships with
local service providers that handle this type of service, however full service moving
companies and national moving companies will also be able to provide all of the moving
services you require. Be sure you know who your mover will be using, as you will need to let
these people into your home to provide the service.
