heavy haulage

Heavy Haulage: What you need to know

Freight transport is an industry through which companies and individuals can deliver the necessary goods from point A to point B in a convenient way for them. For example, by truck, train, plane, or boat. Commercial freight shipping is a very complex process, which includes a huge number of factors that must be taken into account in order for transportation to be safe and successful. And if we are talking about heavy haulage, then it is necessary to approach the issue of delivery even more scrupulously. Delivery methods in the field of heavy haul transportation differ from the usual ones since the transportation of such goods requires special transport and knowledge of certain rules. For such work, specially trained people who know how to exercise maximum care are needed.

Usually, such services are carried out by a heavy haul trucking company, which has the necessary truckload carriers and people who know how to manage it. It is much more profitable to use the services of such a company than to buy a specialized car for the delivery of the necessary goods. Heavy loads are generally considered to be over 53 feet long, 8.6 feet wide and 13.6 feet high, and those weighing over 80,000 pounds. For the transportation of such goods, special escort and a special delivery route may be required. For such work, a technique consisting of several sections may be required.

Most often, the services of companies for the transportation of heavy loads are used by people working in the field of agriculture or construction. Although, any industry sometimes needs the delivery of this type of goods.

For example, for heavy equipment and various bulk goods, the services of such a company are most often needed. Also, such a service is often used by those who produce large-sized equipment. For example, harvesters or spare parts for aircraft and trains. With the help of special vehicles, it is possible to transport the necessary cargo as quickly and safely as possible. Thanks to this scheme, it is possible to reduce logistics costs due to the fact that the cargo is transported at a time, and not in parts. It will also help you save a lot of time.

But you need to understand that for the transportation of bulky goods, a certain classification and permission are also required. The vehicle used for this cannot exceed 35 mph on dual carriageways and 40 mph on motorways. It is forbidden for such vehicles to travel on some roads – therefore, the desired route is thought out and agreed upon in advance. Even before the delivery of heavy loads, it is necessary to request special permission for their transportation. For example, you need to notify the road and bridge services 2 days in advance if the company will transport cargo weighing more than 78 tons. Well, if the cargo weighs more than 147 tons, then the company will have to notify the road authorities no later than 5 days before departure.

However, before contacting a specialized company, you need to understand what kind of cargo you will be transporting, what size it is and how much it weighs. After all, not everywhere there is the necessary equipment for a certain cargo. For example, a company provides the ability to move a tractor, but it does not have the ability to deliver a huge tanker. It is also better to know the characteristics of the equipment that you will deliver. Based on this knowledge, you will be able to understand how reverent handling it requires. Plus, you need to calculate the delivery time of the cargo in advance and ask for help in transporting it in time. It is better not to allow delays when it comes to your business.

After all the necessary calculations have been made, you will need to coordinate them with the oversized cargo delivery service. If the dates match, then everything is fine. If not, you can look for a company that can move the goods faster. Yes, usually the companies themselves can calculate all the necessary parameters and provide all the necessary transportation options, but it’s better to personally understand the goods that you need to deliver.

In this case, you will not be able to be deceived if you contact an unscrupulous service. But it is better to read reviews and view all the necessary information about the company before contacting. It will take some time, but at least you will understand a little with whom you want to cooperate. Remember that conscientious firms with many years of experience have all the necessary documentation and are well aware of the rules for transporting such a plan. Once you find the right heavy-duty shipping service and provide all the information you need, it will save you the stress and hassle of shipping.

So, heavy haul trucking or oversized freight shipping that deliver heavy or oversized goods are a great way to save money and time on transporting your goods. The main thing is that before choosing one of them, you need to scrupulously study the information about the company, as well as carefully prepare information about your cargo in order to provide it. After the start of cooperation, the right company will deal with all the documentation itself and provide all the necessary data on the delivery to the bridge and road management service in time.

Therefore, be careful when choosing a service. In this case, your cargo will be delivered safe and sound, as well as on time. Plus, you will get rid of the extra hassle associated with the delivery and save your nerves, effort, and money.
