We start by explaining why vertical clearances shape every plan for moving outsized freight. Small differences between posted bridge numbers and real field measurements can force a new route or a different trailer choice. Our team measures freight and compares deck heights — flatbed, step-deck, and RGN — to state legal maximums, which range roughly …
