We transport a variety of over-legal freight ranging from drilling components, compressors, and various types of loaders. We've hauled it all. If it's over-legal we've moved it.
Factors That Can Determine An Over Legal Load
There are many factors that can determine if freight is Over-Sized (Super Load) that will need special handling. Usually, the factors include the following:
- Loaded height that exceeds state or provincial guidelines - generally over 13'6" (4.11 meters).
- Loaded width that exceeds 8'6" (2.59 meters).
- Overall loaded, including truck and trailer, length exceeds 72' (22 meters).
- Overall weight, including load and transport equipment, exceeds 80,000 lbs. (36,250 kilograms).
- Other factors may also put your load into a non-legal load.
Our team would be more than happy to help answer any questions you may have about your over-legal loads. Please E-Mail us, or give us a call at 1-800-443-2753 and ask for Rob Norton or Derek Dudinsky.
