Heavy Haul Trucking FAQ

What is heavy haul trucking?

A load is considered heavy haul when its dimensions exceed the legal length, width, height, and/or weight of the state(s) through which the load is being shipped. This specialized transportation is also known as overweight, or over-dimensional (OD) freight. Depending on dimensions, weight, and routing of these oversized loads, purchase of special trip permits issued by states that the freight will be going through may be required. Examples of heavy haul loads include:

  • Heavy equipment
  • Mobile homes
  • Treelength logs
  • Construction machinery

How do you price a heavy haul load?

Pricing will depend on several factors, including

  • What makes the load heavy haul (size, weight, or both)
  • Requirements for guide vehicles along the way
  • Need to navigate through difficult areas
  • Distance
  • Time constraints

The professionals at American Freight will navigate these price factors for you, giving you a reliable shipping quote.
