Ship it big is part of a conglomerate of websites that acts as a clearing house for wideload and oversize load shippers all across the nation that specialize in the transport of anything and everything that exceeds the maximum dimensional or weight limits and restrictions imposed by our laws. What our conglomerate of sites do is initiate new business then each company that is qualified to transport the shipment specified is notified and given a chance to bid on that particular job. At this point an assessment is made according to equipment availability dates as well as the type of equipment. When the potential customers needs are matched with each of these factors the lowest bid is then given to the customer and logistical planning of the oversize, overweight or wideload shipment begins. This process involves planning of the proper way to load the shipment and secure it on a suitable trailer, routing of the shipment and obtaining the proper permits and safety equipment necessary to initiate a safe transport. At times this means coordinating with utilities due to obstructions and police escorts as well as pilot or high pole vehicles. |
