When a standard truck is not enough
Oversized and overweight loads can involve specialized trailers, route considerations, permits, escorts, securement planning and site-specific loading requirements. Missing one detail can create costly delays.
We begin with the complete shipment profile and work outward: equipment, carrier fit, access limitations, routing, timing and communication. The objective is to build a controlled transportation plan before the freight moves.
Specialized freight capabilities
- Over-dimensional machinery and industrial equipment
- Heavy and unusually dense freight
- Step deck, double drop and other specialized equipment
- Government and project freight
- Port, jobsite and remote-access deliveries
- Vehicle and customized hauling requirements
Planning starts with exact details
Accurate dimensions, weight and photos are essential. We also need lifting points, loading method, site hours, access restrictions, crane or rigging arrangements and the required delivery schedule. If the freight is not yet ready, preliminary drawings can help identify likely equipment needs.
Communication from pickup to delivery
Complex shipments benefit from one point of contact who understands the plan. Our Lexington team monitors the move, communicates updates and helps coordinate changes with the shipper, carrier and receiver.
