OVERSIZE AND HEAVY HAUL LOADS

LEGAL DIMENSIONS VS OVER DIMENSIONS

It is considered to be heavy haul trucking when a shipment exceeds the legal dimensions set by the state in which the load is shipping through.

  • Length – Overall length requirements vary by state.
  • Width – A load that exceeds 8′.6” wide will require an over-dimensional permit.
  • Height – The legal overall height of a load through most states is 13′.6” high ground, although some western states are higher.
  • Weight – A shipment that exceeds 80,000 lbs gross weight will also require overweight permits to travel in each state.

On any of the above requirements, the load being hauled must be non-reducible, meaning a shipment must be hauled into its smallest form.

Heavy Haul Trucking

Heavy haul trucking is the hauling of oversize or overweight freight.  Generally, shipping heavy equipment will require specialized trailers that can haul over dimensional or overweight loads.  Heavy equipment hauling requires an expert to determine the right trailer for the job.

  • Permit Requirements
  • Escort Requirements
  • Equipment Requirements

Heavy haul trucking is not the same as legal flatbed hauling.   A heavy haul move requires a professional in order to ensure a safe and successful delivery.

PERMIT AND ESCORT REQUIRMENTS

Heavy haul trucking requires the use of special permits provided by:

  • STATE
  • COUNTRY
  • CITY
  • OTHER GOVERNMENT MUNICIPALITY YOU PLAN TO TRAVEL.

The requirements vary among government entities and so do the costs.  States will also on certain loads require a pilot vehicle or escort to travel in conjunction with the truck and trailer hauling the permitted load.  The escort is there to provide safe travel for the public, the roads, property, and the load.

TRAILER EQUIPMENTS

Equipment can vary greatly depending on the load and its need.
