What is Considered a Wide Load
While all wide loads are classified as oversized loads, not all oversized loads are necessarily wide. An oversized load refers to a vehicle that exceeds standard dimensions, typically wider than 8,5 feet (2.6 meters). However, a load can also be considered oversized based on its weight, length, or height. While height regulations for oversized loads are generally consistent across the United States, specific limits can vary by state.

How Much Does It Cost To Ship An Oversized Load?
Shipping costs are not constant. Many factors come into play that can impact the price of oversized load shipping, and our company wants to ensure that we consider every aspect before giving you a precise quote.
Factors Determining the Oversize Cargo Shipping Costs
Several factors increase or reduce the amount you are likely to spend on your oversized load transport. Here are the main factors that affect cargo shipping costs:
Size and Weight. The cost of shipping oversized cargo primarily depends on its size and weight. Heavier and larger vehicles require more space and specialized equipment, which increases the overall shipping cost.
Distance traveled. The longer the journey, the higher the cost - that’s the basic rule of any vehicle shipping. Hard-to-reach locations will also result in slightly high prices.
Season and demand. Seasonal variations and demand directly impact the cost of oversized cargo transportation. Prices tend to rise during peak seasons due to higher demand for transport services.
Fuel prices. Fuel prices regularly change. When fuel prices increase it directly affects all shipping services, causing carriers to increase their prices.
