We set the stage for why proper cargo restraint is non-negotiable. Improperly tied freight can fall or shift. That can cause crashes, injuries, and worse. We follow federal regulations under 49 CFR §393.100–§393.136. Our team inspects cargo and checks balance. We verify that nothing blocks visibility or emergency equipment. Overweight or unbalanced freight harms steering …

We plan every oversized move with clear safety and compliance goals. Moving wide or tall loads needs permits, escorts, and precise checks. Pilot vehicles travel ahead or beside a trailer. They warn traffic, watch clearances, and call authorities when needed. Our team verifies dimensions like width over 8.5 ft, height above 13.5 ft, or length …

Ignoring seasonal road rules can turn routine hauls into costly disasters. States like Michigan enforce strict weight limits during thaw cycles, with penalties reaching thousands of dollars. For example, rigid pavements north of the Mackinac Bridge currently face 25% load reductions – a detail many operators overlook until fines arrive. We’ve seen how unverified routes …

Preparation saves time and prevents incidents. We plan every heavy move with hands-on inspection. A physical route survey checks bridges, underpasses, overhead lines, and tight spots in real conditions. Our pilot car drives the exact path. That confirms clearances, validates turning space, and reveals traffic patterns that maps miss. We align carriers and field crews …

We open by naming the challenge. Oversized moves change local flow and often need escorts or rolling controls. These actions slow average speeds and raise safety demands for crews and the public. Short lane or route changes force oversized cargo onto longer or constrained corridors. That adds fuel use, extra hours on the clock, and …

We open with a clear statement: pre-trip route surveys sit at the core of safe, efficient heavy haul transport. They set expectations, cut risk, and protect the shipment so the load moves once and arrives on schedule. At Freedom Heavy Haul, we plan each route end-to-end. We scout clearance points, assess surface and access limits, …

Managing oversized cargo requires precise coordination across multiple jurisdictions. Rules differ dramatically between states, counties, and cities, creating a maze of compliance challenges. What works in Texas might fail in California, and seasonal restrictions in Minnesota won’t apply in Arizona. We’ve spent years mastering these regional nuances. Our team helps businesses avoid delays, fines, and …
