Transporting oversized loads in Massachusetts is fast and reliable with Wide Load Shipping. We offer tailored pilot car services in all 50 states. Our services are innovative in accommodating unique loads, which may call for special handling or transport of vehicles. Oversized regulations can be complex in the Bay State, with state highways and turnpikes having different regulations. Over a decade of operating in the state, our teams have mastered the local regulations and routes. Pilot cars are necessary for oversized shipping to prevent damage to road infrastructure, public utilities, and the load. They can be either civilian or police escorts, depending on the requirements. Where police escorts are needed, we contact the state police department to book and cover the costs they incur. The same goes for utility companies and railway companies. Some types of oversize loads we escort include aircraft parts, mobile home units, large construction machinery, and steel pipes. Book our services for a free quote.
