When it comes to Trucking & Rigging Out Of Gauge Machinery NJ​ shop managers trust Pedowitz.

Transporting Out of Gauge (OOG) machinery can present a number of challenges, including, most notably, size and weight restrictions. OOG machinery often exceeds the standard size and weight limits for transportation, which means that special permits and escorts may be required to move them over the road. That’s why, when you’re transporting oversize loads from New York ports (actually Newark), you want to make sure you hire a New Jersey rigging company that has first and foremost the technical expertise to get the job done right.

The loads have to be properly secured which is what the riggers at Pedowitz do best. They work hand in hand with out route planners in order to be able to fit oversize or irregular dimension freight through standard infrastructure such as bridges, tunnels, and ports, which can cause delays and require detours. Moving OOG machinery across borders requires regulatory compliance with various regulations and permits, which can be time-consuming and complicated.

Also, due to the specialized nature of OOG transportation, the cost of moving these machines can be significantly higher than standard transportation methods. Add to that the mitigation of safety risks.

Some of the other considerations involved include:

License and insurance: A trucking company needs to have a valid license and insurance to transport goods. They should have a Motor Carrier Number (MCN) and a USDOT number, which indicates that they are authorized to transport cargo on the roads. They must also have liability insurance and cargo insurance to cover any damages that may occur during transit.

Knowledge of port regulations: A trucking company must have a good understanding of the regulations and procedures involved in transporting goods to and from the port. This includes knowledge of customs clearance, port tariffs, port security, and container handling.

Compliance with safety regulations: The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) has specific regulations for commercial vehicles to ensure they are safe to operate. Trucking companies must comply with these regulations to transport goods to and from the port.

Proper equipment: The trucking company must have the appropriate equipment to transport cargo to and from the port. This includes having a truck with the right weight capacity and container chassis suitable for the type of container being transported.

Experienced drivers: Trucking companies must have experienced and qualified drivers who are knowledgeable about port regulations and procedures. They should also have a good driving record and comply with hours-of-service regulations to ensure they are not fatigued while driving.

Proper documentation: Trucking companies must ensure they have all the necessary documentation required to transport goods to and from the port. This includes bills of lading, customs clearance documents, and other relevant paperwork.
