Oversized Loads Special Handling

Our oversized loads special handling typically involves transporting freight that exceeds the standard dimensions or weight limits set for regular shipping. These loads can include heavy machinery, construction equipment, large vehicles, and oversized industrial equipment, which require unique handling, equipment, permits, and routes.

Types of Oversized Loads Covered

• Heavy Machinery & Construction Equipment: This includes bulldozers, excavators, cranes, or large industrial machines that may require flatbed or multi-axle trailers for transport.

• Wind Turbine Blades & Components: Due to their size, transportation of wind turbine components often requires specialized handling and escort vehicles, especially on rural roads or near wind farms.

• Steel & Metal Products: Long steel beams, pipes, or industrial structures may require flatbeds with customized loading techniques and may need a special route for transportation.

• Industrial Tanks and Reactors: Large tanks used in chemical processing, water treatment, or other industries require tailored transportation, often using specialized trailers with additional support.

• Pre-fabricated Buildings: Modular or pre-built homes and buildings that require careful handling and route planning.
  
  

Specialized Equipment

• Lowboy and Removable Gooseneck Trailers (RGN): These trailers have a low center of gravity and can carry very heavy loads, making them ideal for transporting oversized or heavy equipment.

• Flatbed Trailers: Used for loads that may not be overly heavy but are large in dimensions, such as long beams or machinery.

• Multi-Axle Trailers: To distribute the weight of heavy loads, multiple axles are used to provide stability and prevent damage to roads or infrastructure.

• Float Trailers: These trailers are designed to transport large, heavy, or awkwardly shaped loads over long distances.

• Custom-built Transporters: In some cases, especially for highly specialized loads, transporters are built specifically to fit the dimensions and weight of the cargo.
  
  

Industry-Specific Applications

• Energy: Specialized transport for oversized equipment used in energy sectors, such as oil rigs, turbine blades, or power plants.

• Construction & Mining: Moving oversized construction materials and mining equipment that require specialized handling.

• Aerospace: Transporting large, delicate aerospace parts, such as aircraft fuselages or engines, that require precision handling.

• Marine: Oversized equipment transported to ports for shipping or offshore platforms, often requiring specialized ocean-going vessels.
