What are oversized and oversized goods, and what items do they include?
In freight transport, oversized and super heavy cargo is not a strange concept. However, not everyone clearly understands the transport regulations for oversized and oversized goods. Oversized and oversized goods are items that are so oversized that they cannot be disassembled or divided, but must be kept intact. Therefore, the process of transporting this type of goods is difficult and requires specialized equipment. Some characteristics of these two types of goods are:
- Super-sized goods: Have a length of over 12m, a width of over 2.5m and a height of over 2.7m when transported by road. For super-long sea freight, it is calculated with a length of 12m or more, a width of 4m or more and a height of 3.5m or more.
- Super heavy goods: Regulations on items weighing over 32 tons are considered super heavy goods. When loaded onto road and waterway vehicles, the weight is over 20 tons.
Transporting oversized and overweight goods is the process of transporting goods from the factory to the place of consumption. However, this process is not easy and takes a lot of time and effort. The transportation of oversized and heavy goods needs to be carried out by professional service providers and must strictly comply with State regulations.
Vehicles must have a thorough safety certificate. For coupled trailers, the authorities will check the technical and environmental protection criteria, and only if they meet the requirements can they be used.
Oversized and super heavy goods include the following items:
- Motor vehicles, construction vehicles: Robots, pile presses, excavators, cranes, road rollers, bulldozers, spreaders, excavators,...;
- All kinds of cars, supercars, large distributed motorbikes, sports cars...;
- Industrial machinery and equipment: Industrial capacitors, transformer cabinets, iron and steel cranes, turbine blades of power plants, medical equipment...;
