At PERS Logistics, we plan project-based logistics solutions for cargo that cannot be transported using standard vehicles due to its weight, width, length or height. From construction machinery and industrial equipment to power plant components and out-of-gauge cargo, we assess the technical characteristics of each shipment and its transportation requirements.
Heavy haulage using lowbed trailers involves specialized semi-trailers and transport equipment selected according to the cargo dimensions, weight and route requirements. To ensure that transportation is safe and feasible, vehicle selection, route assessment, loading and unloading arrangements, and any required permits must be considered before shipment.
Project transportation covers the planned movement of oversized, heavy or specially handled cargo required for specific investments or site operations. Heavy haulage focuses on transporting loads that exceed the capacity or dimensional limits of standard vehicles, using suitable equipment and operational planning.
These services are shaped by project requirements across various sectors, including construction, energy, mining, industry, infrastructure and manufacturing. Since every load has different dimensions, centers of gravity, lifting points and handling sensitivities, the transportation plan must be tailored to each shipment.
Lowbed trailers and other specialized transport equipment are considered when cargo cannot be transported using standard flatbed or curtain-sided trailers. The appropriate equipment is selected based on cargo dimensions, total weight, axle loads, loading method and the technical conditions of the route. Since no single transportation method is suitable for every load, available alternatives are assessed at the beginning of the operation.
For certain heavy and oversized shipments, combined solutions involving road, sea, rail or multiple transportation modes may be considered. The appropriate method is determined according to cargo specifications, origin and destination points, infrastructure conditions, permit requirements and cost factors.
Heavy and out-of-gauge transportation may require special permits, route approvals, escort vehicles or travel during designated hours, depending on the nature of the cargo and the countries involved. Factors such as bridges, viaducts, tunnels, roadworks and site access must be included in the shipment plan. Proper cargo securing and advance assessment of loading and unloading areas are also essential for operational safety.
Permit and operational requirements may vary depending on the country, cargo and route, and must therefore be confirmed for each shipment. The final transportation method and feasibility are determined after reviewing the technical details and the requirements of the relevant authorities.
PERS Logistics evaluates heavy lowbed and project transportation requests based on the technical requirements of the cargo and operational conditions. Our objective is to define the transportation scope for each project, assess suitable alternatives and coordinate the relevant operational steps. Vehicle type, route, permit requirements and transportation method are determined according to cargo details and shipment locations.
To prepare an accurate quotation, please provide the cargo dimensions (length, width and height), weight, loading and delivery addresses, expected readiness date, loading and unloading conditions, and any available technical drawings. PERS Logistics will evaluate your request based on this information and provide feedback on suitable transportation options.

It is generally applied to heavy machinery, industrial equipment, and project cargo that exceed the standard size or capacity limits of conventional vehicles.
Depending on the dimensions and weight of the cargo, as well as the route, special permits or additional safety conditions may be required. Requirements must be verified on a shipment-by-shipment basis.
The dimensions and weight of the cargo, the loading and delivery points, the date of readiness, and the loading/unloading conditions are the essential pieces of information for an initial assessment.
No. Depending on the cargo and route requirements, alternatives such as sea freight, rail transport, or combined transport may also be considered.
