Safety Measures for Transportation of Abnormal Loads.

Transporting abnormal loads is a very high-risk process that requires governed, regulated practices so that all safety measures are complied with.

  • Load securement: The load should be properly secured to the trailer using appropriate load securing equipment. We ensure all loads are secured correctly EVERYTIME.
  • Escort vehicles: All of our abnormal load deliveries that require an escort vehicle for a safe journey are provided and inclusive of the costs unless otherwise stated.
  • Vehicle inspection: The trailer, towing vehicle, and load are checked, prior to, during and at the end of the journey to ensure all deliveries are carried out professionally and precisely.

Equipment for the Transportation of Abnormal Loads.

Transporting abnormal loads requires specialised equipment designed to safely move heavy and oversized goods. Below is some of the equipment we use to transport abnormal loads.

  • Low loader trailers: Low loader trailers are designed to transport heavy and oversize loads that cannot be accommodated on standard trailers. They have a lower deck height, which allows for greater height clearance and easier loading and unloading.
  • Extendable trailers: Extendable trailers can be adjusted to accommodate different load lengths. They are ideal for transporting long loads such as pipes and wind turbine blades.
  • Cranes: Cranes are used to lift and move heavy loads onto trailers and off them. They come in different sizes and types depending on the weight and dimensions of the load.
  • Load securing equipment: Load securing equipment such as chains, straps, and ratchets are used to secure the load to the trailer and prevent it from shifting during transportation.
