What is considered wide load transport?

Wide load transport refers to the transportation of oversized cargo that exceeds standard road width limits. Here are the key details:

In the United States, a wide load is typically defined as:
- Cargo wider than 8.5 feet (102 inches)
- Requires special permits and safety precautions
- Must be accompanied by escort vehicles in many states

Types of wide load transport include:
- Construction equipment (excavators, bulldozers)
- Large industrial machinery
- Prefabricated buildings or building components
- Wind turbine blades
- Agricultural equipment
- Mobile homes
- Certain types of specialized vehicles

Safety requirements for wide load transport often include:
- Bright "WIDE LOAD" signs
- Flashing warning lights
- Special routing to avoid low bridges or narrow roads
- Specific travel times (often during daylight hours)
- Escort vehicles to warn other drivers
- Reduced speed limits

Regulations can vary by state and country, so transporters must carefully check local requirements. The specific width, height, and weight limits that constitute a wide load can differ depending on the jurisdiction.

Specialized trucks and trailers are used for wide load transport, including:
- Flatbed trailers
- Lowboy trailers
- Extendable trailers
- Multi-axle trailers

These vehicles are designed to safely carry oversized and overweight cargo while maintaining road safety and minimizing disruption to other traffic.
