Overweight goods have an actual weight of 20 tons or more. Specialized vehicles to carry this special type of goods are floor trailers, multi-axle trailers,...

Currently, depending on each extra-long or super-heavy package, a separate vehicle will be used with the appropriate load and size. Currently, super-tonnage vehicles include the following types: Dwarf trailers, floor trailers, 30-52m retractable trailers, 8-axle trailers, 25-axle hydraulic trailers, steerable agricultural trailers, and self-driving trailers.
