Superload vs oversize load

When oversize is not enough

Every superload is an oversize load, but not every oversize load is a superload. Each state sets its own cutoff by weight and size, and a load past it needs its own permit, a route review, and often escorts and utility crews. That is the work we are built for, across the USA and Canada, with bonded and non bonded shipments across the Canadian border.

How we move a superload

Four steps, one team

Permitting, routing, escorts, utility bucket trucks, maintenance and drivers are in house. Load plans are engineered with industry engineering partners and trailer manufacturers.

Step 01

Permits and routing

Our in house team handles the permits and routing for every state and province on the route, and every route is reviewed turn by turn with the driver before the move.

Step 02

Engineered load plan

Load plans are engineered with industry engineering partners and trailer manufacturers, then matched to the right setup from our fleet.

Step 03

Escorts and utility

Our own escort vehicles and utility bucket trucks run with the load, lifting lines and clearing the way. Police escorted moves too, like our 300,000 lb gross dryer drum move.

Step 04

Delivery

Live GPS Samsara tracking and dash cam on every truck, with a live share link on request, so your site team knows where the load is until it is set down.
