Wide Load Shipping offers pilot car services in all eight of Hawaii’s main islands. Although Hawaii has interstates constructed to mainland standards, all four are located on Oahu. Moving oversized loads to the rest of the islands is extremely difficult. Hawaii’s landscape is highly diverse, ranging from lava deserts, misty plateaus, and fern and bamboo forests to the snow-capped peak of Mauna Kea. We, Wide Load Shipping, have served our clients here for years. Our teams are specialized and experienced in safely traversing the entire state. Equally, we use state-of-the-art equipment. Every state mandates that pilot cars follow or lead over-dimensional loads on public roadways. They serve several roles, including warning other motorists, checking for obstacles ahead, guiding the load around tight bends, and, in the case of high pole cars, verifying height clearances. Among the types of oversized loads we ship in Hawaii are boats. Hawaii has a thriving boat scene for both commercial and recreational boats. Whether your oversize load is moving to one of the islands or across multiple islands, Wide Load Shipping guarantees timely delivery. We also acquire all the required permits and liaise with utility companies in cases where overhead utilities need moving. Book now to get started.
In Hawaii, length limitations do not apply to vehicles transporting pipe, poles, timbers, reinforcing steel, or other objects of a structural nature that cannot be readily dismembered. When moving at night, such vehicles should be equipped with sufficient clearance lamps on both sides of any projecting load to mark the load’s dimensions. Many of the requirements in Hawaii are undefined and depend on the route taken; hence, you must always consult with a professional.
Whenever an escort vehicle is required by statute or under the conditions of the special permit, the owner should provide such a vehicle to accompany the move.
