Nationwide Services on Oversized Loads and Shipment Dimensions
Over-dimensional freight usually refers to certain oversized shipments in which the shipment characteristics exceed one or more of the standard freight limits. Although these legal requirements often vary by state or province, a typical load may be considered oversized or over-dimensional if it exceeds 53′ long, 8′ 6″ wide, or 13′ 6″ high.
Titan Worldwide is an acknowledged expert in transportation solutions for over-dimensional loads and heavy haul. Over-dimensional loads are considered a road hazard since they can interfere with other vehicles, sometimes with costly consequences. That is why most states restrict transport, require permits, escort vehicles, and assess an over-dimensional surcharge.
Every time your freight passes through another state, the responsibility falls on you to protect motorists by adhering to state restrictions. That is where Titan comes into the picture. Using our vast experience, we take route surveys and develop a suggested route that considers major concerns such as potential obstructions, low bridges, low-hanging wires, route changes, pilot cars, and safety equipment.
At Titan Worldwide, our logistics company takes on every major concern about your over-dimensional load, so you don’t have to think about it.

At Titan Worldwide, we specialize in the management and transportation of over-dimensional freight, navigating complex regulations and logistics to deliver your oversized cargo safely and efficiently.
What Kind of Permits are Needed for Over-Dimensional Freight Shipping?

Titan Worldwide handles the acquisition of all necessary permits, leveraging our expertise to ensure your shipment adheres to all legal requirements, making the transportation process seamless and hassle-free.
Are Escort Vehicles Required for Over-Dimensional Freight Shipping?
Escort or pilot vehicles are often required when transporting over-dimensional freight as a safety measure to warn other road users.

At Titan Worldwide, we coordinate the use of escort vehicles when necessary, prioritizing the safety of your cargo and all road users.

The cargo is then secured using heavy-duty chains, straps, or other equipment to ensure it remains stationary during transport. Titan Worldwide employs experienced professionals and uses state-of-the-art equipment to load and secure your over-dimensional freight properly.
How Much Does it Cost to Ship Over-Dimensional Freight?
