Oversized, and why it is priced differently

Trailers are limited by weight and by deck space, not by vehicle count. A dually pickup, a long-wheelbase van or a lifted truck can occupy the space of two ordinary cars and take the trailer close to its legal weight limit, so the rate reflects the capacity consumed rather than the single unit moved.

Accurate dimensions matter more here than on any other service. Height, length, width and weight determine which trailers can take the vehicle at all. A modification as ordinary as a lift kit or a roof rack can change which carriers are available.

Genuinely oversized loads may need permits and route planning around bridge and tunnel restrictions. That is arranged in advance, and it is why a quote for this kind of vehicle takes a short conversation rather than a form.

If the truck or van does not run, shipping a car that does not run explains winch loading and what to declare when you book.

When this is the right choice

  • Pickup trucks, dually and long-bed configurations
  • Cargo and passenger vans, and box trucks
  • Lifted or modified vehicles outside standard dimensions
  • Commercial and fleet vehicle relocations

What to check before booking

  • Measure the actual height including any rack, light bar or lift
  • Declare modifications up front, since they change trailer suitability
  • Allow longer lead time, as fewer trailers can take the load

Common questions

Why does my truck cost more than a car on the same route?
Trailers are limited by weight and deck space rather than vehicle count. A dually or lifted truck can take the space of two cars and push the trailer toward its legal weight limit, so the rate reflects the capacity used.
What does heavy vehicle shipping cost?
Rates depend on distance, vehicle size and weight, whether the route is a lane carriers already run, and the season. Partners quote against your actual origin and destination rather than a table. Call (844) 257-5832 with both ZIP codes and the vehicle details.
Is the vehicle insured while it is being transported?
Yes. Every partner we connect you with is licensed and insured, and the assigned carrier holds cargo insurance for loading, transit and unloading. Ask for the certificate before pickup and check the limit against what your vehicle is worth. Your own auto policy generally does not apply while the vehicle is on a commercial trailer.
