An oversize load (also called oversized load, wide load, or oversize transport) is any cargo being transported by road that exceeds standard legal size and weight limits for vehicles. These loads typically require special permits, escort vehicles, and specific safety measures.
Common types of oversize loads include:
- Construction equipment (cranes, excavators, bulldozers)
- Industrial equipment and machinery
- Wind turbine components (blades, towers)
- Large vessels or tanks
- Prefabricated building sections
- Bridge beams
- Mobile homes
Special requirements usually include:
- Warning signs ("OVERSIZE LOAD" or "WIDE LOAD")
- Flashing lights or beacons
- Pilot/escort vehicles (also called pilot cars)
- Special route planning to avoid low bridges, narrow roads, or weight-restricted areas
- Transportation during specific times (often night hours or off-peak)
- Special permits from state/provincial authorities
- Trained and specially licensed drivers
Dimensional considerations that make a load "oversize":
- Width exceeding standard lane width (typically over 8.5 feet/2.6 meters)
- Height exceeding standard clearances (typically over 13.5 feet/4.1 meters)
- Length beyond standard trailer limits
- Weight exceeding standard road limits
Safety measures often include:
- Route surveys before transport
- Police escorts for extremely large loads
- Advance notification to utilities and local authorities
- Temporary removal of road signs or traffic signals if needed
- Special weather monitoring and contingency planning
