LeeBoy 8520C: transport dimensions, weight and how it ships overseas
At 8 ft 6 in (2.59 m) wide, the LeeBoy 8520C is wider than a container door in one piece (7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m), so it ships whole on a 40 ft flat rack (7 in / 0.19 m over width, 5 in / 0.13 m over height). RoRo is the alternative where a lane serves your port.

Every way to ship a LeeBoy 8520C, best first
Cheapest first: the shipping cost ladder
We price every machine from the bottom rung up. A machine only moves up a rung when a measurement rules out the cheaper method.
LeeBoy 8520C is 8 ft 6 in / 2.59 m wide, over the 7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m container door, so shipping it whole starts on the next rung up.
- Rung 1
Container
Lowest cost
When: Fits through a 7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m × 8 ft 6 in / 2.58 m door and under 59,500 lb / 27,000 kg, whole or after we take off the bucket, boom, cab or wheels.
- Rung 2
Flat rack
Mid cost
Best fit for LeeBoy 8520C
When: Too wide or tall for a container door, but within 14 ft 9 in / 4.5 m wide, 13 ft 1 in / 4 m tall and 86,000 lb / 39,000 kg on one rack.
- Rung 3
RoRo
Mid cost
When: Drives or tows aboard, under 19 ft 8 in / 6 m tall and 110 US tons / 100,000 kg, going to a port with regular RoRo sailings.
- Rung 4
Breakbulk
Highest cost
When: Past flat-rack and roll-trailer limits, or shipped as modules lifted aboard piece by piece.
Worked out from the dimensions above against container, flat rack and RoRo limits. RoRo depends on a regular sailing to your port.
| # | Best method | Fit | Preparation |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 40 ft flat rackBest fit | Out-of-gauge | Ships assembled, blocked and lashed; out-of-gauge surcharge applies (7 in / 0.19 m over width, 5 in / 0.13 m over height). |
| 2 | 40 ft high-cube container | After disassembly, across containers | Taken apart and loaded across one or more 40 ft containers, with open-tops for tall pieces: screed off and exhaust stack and beacons off. We survey the machine first and quote this next to shipping it whole. How we containerize |
| 3 | RoRo | Where a RoRo lane serves the destination | Drives on assembled where a RoRo lane serves the destination. |
| 4 | Breakbulk | Fits as is | Lifted aboard by crane as breakbulk; used when no flat rack or RoRo option suits the port. |

LeeBoy 8520C shipping questions
Does a LeeBoy 8520C fit in a shipping container?
At 8 ft 6 in (2.59 m) wide, the LeeBoy 8520C is wider than a container door in one piece (7 ft 8 in / 2.34 m), so it ships whole on a 40 ft flat rack (7 in / 0.19 m over width, 5 in / 0.13 m over height). RoRo is the alternative where a lane serves your port. It can also be containerized after disassembly (screed off and exhaust stack and beacons off), across one or more containers; we survey it first and quote both.
How much does a LeeBoy 8520C weigh for shipping?
LeeBoy lists the LeeBoy 8520C at 22,100 lb (10,024 kg) (weight with the standard screed); the bill of lading uses your machine's own weight.
What are the shipping dimensions of a LeeBoy 8520C?
13 ft 10 in × 8 ft 6 in × 6 ft 10 in (4.22 × 2.59 × 2.08 m) (length × width × height) in transport position, from LeeBoy's published specifications for the LeeBoy 8520C.
What has to come off a LeeBoy 8520C to ship it?
To containerize it: screed off and exhaust stack and beacons off. Our crew does the work, crates and labels every part, and loads the pieces across one or more containers, with documentation for reassembly. Shipped whole on a flat rack or RoRo, it needs little or no disassembly.
Can a LeeBoy 8520C ship RoRo?
Yes, where a RoRo lane serves your destination port. It drives on under its own power. RoRo from the U.S. reaches fewer countries than containers and flat racks, so we check your port first.
