New Jersey Oversize and Overweight Permits
Nationwide Transport Services specializes in providing seamless oversize and overweight permit shipping solutions in New Jersey. The state, popularly known as the "Crossroads of the East Coast," is known for its many dense urban areas, bustling ports, and intricate highway network. With its prime position as a transportation and logistics hub, New Jersey is home to a diverse range of industries, including pharmaceuticals, chemicals, construction, and port logistics. Some types of loads we handle include construction machines, steel beams, wind turbine blades, and aircraft parts. We handle every step, from obtaining permits to providing equipment needs like pilot cars, cranes for loading and unloading, and trailers for transport. Navigating New Jersey's urban infrastructure, including tunnels and high-traffic corridors such as the New Jersey Turnpike and Garden State Parkway, demands adherence to strict regulations, including the use of additional escort vehicles and precise route mapping. Moving heavy hauls through Newark, Atlantic City, and Camden often requires local permits due to infrastructure constraints and high traffic density.

- Length: Measure from the front of the vehicle to the end of the load, including overhangs. Ensure the vehicle is on level ground for precise measurement.
- Width: Measure the load's widest point, taking into account any extensions beyond the trailer.
- Height: Measure from ground level to the load's highest secured point, considering the combined height of the trailer and load.
- Weight: A certified truck scale can provide an accurate total weight, ensuring it's evenly distributed across all axles.
