Heavy haul trucking or overweight shipments pose special challenges and require extra consideration. Oftentimes a shipment may require special routing and permitting in order to travel on public roads, as well as requiring a specialized truck or trailer to safely distribute its weight.

​

We have experts that invest many hours of research into every route survey and road study before a shipment even leaves for its destination. We have established relationships with airlines, railways, cargo ships and transportation companies to ensure your product arrives on time, on budget, and at its destination.
