Key Features of Over Dimension Cargo:

• Large or Heavy Cargo : Includes items such as machinery, construction equipment, or industrial parts that are too large or heavy for standard transport vehicles.
• Specialized Transport : ODC often requires customized vehicles such as flatbed trucks, low-bed trailers, or cranes to handle the oversized load.
• Permits and Regulations : Transporting over-dimensional cargo typically requires special permits, as it may violate local road regulations or interfere with traffic. Compliance with local laws and regulations is essential.
• Route Planning : Careful route planning is necessary to identify any obstacles such as bridges, tunnels, or narrow roads that may not accommodate oversized loads. Special escorts or safety measures may be required.
• Safety and Security : Ensuring the safe transport of over-dimensional cargo often involves securing the load properly, using specific safety equipment, and sometimes employing pilot vehicles to guide the transportation process.
• Increased Costs : Due to the special requirements for transport, handling, and permits, ODC tend to be more expensive than standard shipments.
