This typically applies to equipment that is more than 8.6 ft wide or 13.6 ft tall. Our team can help determine if your shipment requires special handling.

    Depending on the specifics of the shipment, oversized loads may require permits, escort vehicles, and specific routing approvals in each province or state they cross. Our team ensures all necessary permits and compliance requirements are in place before transportation.
