Freight that is too wide, too tall, or too heavy for a standard trailer needs a carrier that plans it properly. Prestige Hauling moves over-dimensional freight from Lemont, IL with its own flatbed fleet and trained drivers.
Over-dimensional loads fail the moment a carrier improvises. Whether your shipment exceeds standard width, height, or weight limits, safe movement starts with proper planning: routing around restrictions, securing the load to match how it behaves in a panic stop, and putting an experienced driver on the trailer. We have been hauling oversized and overweight freight since 2016 — much of it machinery, equipment, and components moving in and out of the Chicagoland industrial market.
What over-dimensional hauling involves
Over-dimensional (sometimes written "overdimensional" or oversize) shipping covers loads that exceed standard trailer dimensions — commonly anything wider than 8'6", taller than about 13'6" loaded, or heavier than standard legal axle limits. Moving that freight takes:
- Route planning that accounts for low bridges, curbs, ramps, and travel-hour restrictions before the truck ever rolls.
- Permits arranged for every state and jurisdiction the load crosses.
- Advanced securement — chains, binders, and blocking sized to the load, applied by drivers who understand FMCSA cargo-securement standards.
- Experienced judgment at the wheel, because the margin for error on an oversize load is thin.
How Prestige handles your shipment
Call our office at (630) 566-5366 or use the contact form with your freight details — dimensions, weight, pickup and delivery points, and timing. Our team reviews the load, confirms equipment and routing, and gives you a straight answer about schedule and pricing. On the day of movement you deal with the same people who planned it, and our dispatch stays in touch until the load is delivered and confirmed.
