Oversize Load Truck Services in Canada & USA

Transporting Oversize Loads Safely and Efficiently

Shipping large and over-dimensional freight requires specialized handling, equipment, and planning. These shipments exceed the standard size and weight limitations of regular trailers, demanding careful coordination and compliance with various regulations. At ShipNorthAmerica, our network of experienced freight providers offers oversize load truck services designed to meet your specific shipping requirements.

What Is an Oversize Load?

An oversize load refers to any freight that exceeds the legal size or weight limits for standard trailers. This includes:

  • Height, width, or length limits
  • Weight restrictions based on the transport route
  • Special requirements like permits and escorts

Oversize loads can include equipment such as construction machinery, prefabricated structures, and industrial components. Shipping these loads safely requires more than just the right truck—it involves obtaining permits, organizing escorts, and planning the transport route carefully.

Key Considerations for Oversize Load Truck Services

Our network ensures that your oversize shipments are managed smoothly from start to finish, taking into account:

  • Permits and Regulations: Compliance with local, provincial, state, and national regulations is critical for oversize load shipping.
  • Escorts and Safety Measures: For large loads, escort vehicles, signage, and pull cars are often required to ensure safety.
  • Route and Time of Day Planning: The right planning avoids obstacles, traffic, and time-of-day restrictions that could delay your shipment.
