R. B. HIGH TECH TRANSPORT INC. was involved with a high profile, extremely fragile move in July 2010 for the University of Washington in Seattle, WA from the Lawrence Livermore Lab in Livermore, CA. The equipment, Axion Magnet Cryostat, is not only very tall, requiring overheight permits, it is extremely sensitive and had to be transported at 30 mph maximum the entire distance with shock monitoring equipment taking readings the entire trip. This took much coordination with the University of Washington and the various State jurisdictions along the route. Police escorts were secured in addition to our own lead car and third-party escort vehicles warning of slow moving vehicle ahead which made this a very safe and successful move. These are the situations that R. B. High Tech Transport loves to take on. "Can it even be done" was the first question and we love a challenge!

R. B. HIGH TECH TRANSPORT INC. is a proud member of the American Association of Museums. We are actually listed as the top carrier on their Market Place Website.

R. B. High Tech Transport, Inc. has gone GREEN!
We are happy to report compliance with the new California Air Resources Board regulation: TRU ATCM or Transport Refrigeration Units Airborne Toxic Control Measure. Climate Units run on diesel fuel and diesel fuel emissions are proven to be extremely harmful, so the Federal Air Resources Board has granted California the approval required to enforce this new regulation. Enforcement begins July 17, 2009; six months after the Federal approval granted on January 16, 2009. By the Federal Air Resources Board granting this OK to California, it is a matter of time before more States follow California’s lead towards cleaner air. R. B. is one step ahead in total compliance towards cleaner air for our future and our children’s future. Check out the following link for info on the TRU ATCM.
C.A.R.B. Compliant




High Profile Shipment from Vistec Lithography to UCLA
R. B. High Tech was part of a high profile shipment in November 2008 with Fab Logistics from Vistec Lithography in Albany, NY to UCLA in Los Angeles. This was very significant because it's the first tool shipment that is "Made In USA". All the Vistec employees came out to watch the Main Unit being loaded on Climate Controlled Trailer RB018 with R. B. Owner/Operators Dave & Lynn Dohme. Vistec should be very proud of their accomplishment in regards to this first tool "Made In USA".

In August of 2004, R.B. High Tech Transport, Inc. was selected to move a historic helicopter to the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum. The “Hiller-copter” or XH-44 was built in 1944 by Stanley Hiller, Jr. in Oakland, California. After retirement, Stanley Hiller suspended the XH-44 from the ceiling of his main production plant in Palo Alto, California. The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum acquired the XH-44 from Hiller in 1953 and then restored the helicopter in 1974. During 1997, the National Air and Space Museum lent the rotorcraft back to Stanley Hiller for display at the Hiller Aviation Museum in San Carlos, California. The XH-44 has now been returned and is on exhibit at The Smithsonian.

R.B. High Tech Transport driver/representative Will Kuhlman, teamed up with his son Travis' second grade class to share some of his experiences and help expand their knowledge of geography.

Will first sent a letter describing what we do and haul along with brochures to the class at Stephens Elementary in Bartow, FL. Then throughout the year he sent each student a post card from a different state, and even a few Canadian Provinces, which the class posted on a giant map to mark all the places Will had been. Many of these postcards were donated by the museums for which Will had transported fine art.

These cards included a brief description of what was being hauled and where Will was, along with something of interest for the kids about that area. At the end of the year Will brought his truck and trailer to the school for a very large "show and tell". The students, along with their teacher, were given a tour and the opportunity to sit in the drivers seat.

After answering questions, Will gave out activity atlas' and other handouts to take home. Opportunties like these are not only great fun for the kids, but gave Will the chance to combine learning with real life experiences while on the road that these students will take with them for a long time to come.
