SPECIALIZED & HEAVY HAUL SHIPPING

Oversized cargo. Tight deadlines. Zero margin for error.

Heavy-haul and specialized shipping success starts long before wheels roll. Our permit specialists stay ahead of shifting state and provincial rules, lining up escorts so the convoy never idles at a border. Route engineers then study every bridge, bend, and seasonal restriction to chart a path that keeps the load moving. Meanwhile, cranes, riggers, and yard crews are booked to match your exact delivery window. Throughout the journey, live status alerts arrive automatically, giving stakeholders the answers they need before questions surface.

Frequently Asked Questions

Loads that exceed standard dimensions or handling requirements, such as over-dimensional, over-weight, project cargo, machinery, cranes, transformers, and delicate high-value equipment. These moves often require permits, escorts, route surveys, and specialized equipment like RGNs, double-drops, multi-axle, or air-ride.

Requirements vary by province and state based on dimensions, axle weights, and route. Many jurisdictions mandate daytime travel, holiday blackouts, pilot cars, or police escorts. Journey handles permit applications, pilot scheduling, and travel windows so you have a single plan and timeline.

It depends on dimensions, weight, and loading constraints. Step-deck works for taller pieces, double-drop or RGN handles higher clearances and drive-on machinery, and multi-axle is for concentrated weights. Share length, width, height, and total weight and we will spec the safest option.

Yes. We can coordinate riggers, crane dispatch, lift plans, and job-site access with certificates of insurance. You receive a single schedule that aligns crane windows, truck arrival, and site readiness to limit idle time and cost.
