Tire chain laws are regulations that require trucks, pilot cars, and even passenger vehicles to have chains on their tires during the winter months. By applying the chains to vehicles and trucks, it helps reduce the chance of skidding because of the snow covered (and slippery) highways during cold winter months.

International transport for oversize load requires a bit more than domestic shipping. Port-to-port shipping is the most common option. A driver will transport your oversize load to the port, and from there it will be loaded on a cargo ship to a port in the country of your choice. International transport requires extra paperwork for customs.

There are many types of trailers used for oversize transport. Depending on the dimensions, meaning the length, height, width, and weight, a Wide Load Shipping agent will determine the best trailer for transport. This may be a standard flatbed trailer, a step deck trailer, a lowboy trailer, or RGN trailer. There are various other types of trailers as well.
