@@Trinitylogistics When I picked up a 8.5x28ft trailer yesterday to deliver to a customer I talked to the manufacturer and he said that for the price that people are willing to pay that it's best for someone with the type of business that I run it would be best to just stay away from doing it. Which was where my line of thinking was leading me to anyway before talking to him. I understand for the most part what is needed and required to transport a wide load. I just wasn't sure when the escort requirement kicked in. The manufacturer also mentioned that a customer just recently decided to use their SUV to pick up and take home their 10x28 trailer and ended up wrecking and flipping the trailer.
Yes, oversized shipping can be complex. As for the escort requirement, it varies by state when it is required. We do have an Over-Dimensional Shipping Guide that we put together listing each state's individual requirements. Could be something useful to have on hand.

Thank you for the feedback. We've seen it as many different terms like "oversize", "oversized", "heavy haul", "overdimensional" and more. For search purposes, oversize is the term that made the most sense for this video.
Hi, thanks for reaching out. I believe you would need to get permits for each state you are passing through. You can see more information on how to obtain those permits here ops.fhwa.dot.gov/freight/sw/permit_report/index.htm
Hey there. Thanks for pointing that out as I can see why it is a bit confusing since the title of the slide read Oversized Load. What was being shared were the federal legal limits of a shipment. Anything over those limits shown would be considered oversized or overweight.
Great Explanation guys. Thank you for sharing
Glad you liked it!
First oversized video I've watched that actually taught me something. Thanks! 👍

What about towing a 10ft wide 32ft long deck over trailer that is the base for a tiny house ?

I've always wondered why the truck reads as "Oversize Load" instead of oversized load. Always struck me as bad grammar.

How do I haul overweight on an interstate?
