Received a call from Mass State Police to respond immediately to Rte. 195E right at the point that Rte. 24S connects for a roled over Suburban and a large trailer. They also sstated that the highway was completely shut down from Rte. 195E and south of Rte. 24. Also, the trailer body was seperated from the floor and the trailer was full of personal items. The troopers on the scene requested that we respond with a crane to lift the unit straight up. We dispatched our 60 ton roator as well as a Landoll Tt unit to transport the camper back to our storage yard in Freetown. the trailer needed to be put on top of a low bed where as it wouoldn't be able to travel with the wheels on the roadway. The unit had to be strapped down to prevent the walls from lifting off the floor section. We also brought in our HD front end loader with 8' forks to asist in lowering the trailer down easily to prevent the trailer from separating and spilling the contents on the highway adding many hours tot he recovery and clean up. We transported the loaded to and from the accident on our second Landoll TT unit.
