Oversized Transport Services

In Queensland, a load is considered oversize when it exceeds the standard vehicle dimensions set out under the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) guidelines. As a general guide, loads that fall into any of the following categories require oversize permits and may need pilot or escort vehicles:

• Width exceeding 2.5 metres
• Height exceeding 4.3 metres
• Length exceeding 12.5 metres (or 19m for some combinations)
• Mass exceeding standard axle and gross mass limits

If your load crosses any of these thresholds, it needs a permit, a planned route and — depending on the dimensions — one or more pilot vehicles. We handle all of that in-house.

Every oversize move we run is fully permitted and route-planned to NHVR requirements. Our team manages the entire process so your load clears every checkpoint without delay:

• NHVR permit applications — we prepare and lodge all oversize and overmass permits on your behalf.
• Route surveys — we assess bridge limits, overhead clearances, turning circles and road conditions before the truck rolls.
• Council approvals — where a move crosses local government boundaries, we coordinate council permits and notifications.
• Pilot vehicle coordination — we supply and schedule pilot and escort vehicles to match the load's dimensions.

The result: your oversize load moves legally, safely and on schedule — no surprises on the road.
