Understanding Overweight Freight in Modern Logistics
What Is Overweight Freight?
Overweight freight refers to cargo that exceeds standard weight limits set by DOT regulations. These shipments require careful planning, permitting, and often specialized equipment to ensure legal and safe transportation.
R&R Global Logistics specializes in managing these high-stakes moves — from industrial machinery and construction materials to specialized equipment — that don’t fit within conventional transport parameters.
These loads often require custom routing, loading/unloading processes, escort vehicles, and advanced compliance with state and federal laws. The margin for error is low — which is why experience, precision, and industry knowledge are essential.

Why Specialized Heavy Freight Logistics Are Mission-Critical
Why Overweight Freight Matters
