Transportation of Oversized

Handling Over-Dimensional Loads with Mammoth Precision

You call, we haul. That’s all. But when it comes to oversized loads, what we’re really hauling is complexity handled with care, precision, and no shortcuts.

At STT Logistics Group, we are true experts in moving freight that doesn’t fit inside a standard trailer or standard thinking. Since 2015, we’ve helped businesses move everything from construction cranes and turbines to custom built machinery and massive industrial components. “Thinking outside the trailer” is just one way we like to think of it.

We won’t bat an eyelid if your cargo stretches 16 feet wide, weighs 90,000 lbs, or requires multiple escort vehicles in fact, hearing this will make our eyes light up!

Oversized Loads, Heavy Hauling, and Wide Load Reality

Let’s be honest heavy equipment transportation is considerably more complex than most people realize. There’s far more to it than just size. You’ve got to consider legal limits, route conditions, bridge capacities, traffic patterns, and much more. What’s more, every over-dimensional load has its own unique challenges. Some quick facts:
  • In the U.S., anything wider than 8.6 feet is considered a wide load
  • A load exceeding 13.6 feet high, 53 feet long, or 80,000 lbs gross weight requires special permits (leave these to us!)
  • Some shipments need escort vehicles or police supervision, depending on state regulations
  • The cost of a permit and escort can vary widely—this often changes according to the state, route, and cargo profile

There’s lots to think about, which is why clients trust STT to manage everything—from permits to pilot cars to your peace of mind.

“They called, needing an urgent haul for their second ranch. By the next day, we had a driver ready in San Joaquin, CA, and by Saturday, the JGL 400S boom, a John Deere Skid Steer, and twelve 53ft pipes were delivered on time in Toronto, SD.”

Cranes, Complexity, and Other Mega Cargo

Cranes are some of the most challenging and exciting things we move. Why? Because along with transportation, they usually require dismantling, secure handling, and sometimes, multiple trailers to complete the job. That’s why we bring in experienced dismantling (and reassembling) professionals and plan every detail of the route in advance. Other equipment we handle regularly includes:
  • Oversized construction equipment

Oversized Load Transportation with STT Logistics Group

In most U.S. states, a load is considered oversized if it exceeds 8.6 feet wide, 13.6 feet high, 53 feet long, or 80,000 lbs gross vehicle weight. Anything larger typically falls under the category of over-dimensional loads and requires special permits and planning.

Yes! STT handles all permitting requirements and route planning from start to finish. Our team takes care of compliance with local, state, and federal regulations so your wide load is transported safely and legally.

Absolutely. Depending on the size and route of the cargo, we’ll arrange certified oversized load escort vehicles and, where required, coordinate police escorts, too. Safety and visibility are top priorities when transporting hauling oversized loads.

We love this kind of job. We bring in qualified experts to dismantle equipment when needed then fly those same professionals to the destination site to put the machinery together again. We pack every component securely and create comprehensive lists encompassing every single piece. As we’ve seen time and time again, moving the actual load is just one part of the job.

Timelines vary depending on the cargo, distance, and permits required. Once we know the details of your shipment, we’ll provide a clear, realistic timeline—and keep you updated every step of the way.
