Freight is considered oversized or over-dimensional when it exceeds legal size or weight limits for standard trailers and requires permits or specialized equipment.
Destuffing involves unloading oversized cargo from containers or flat rack, and transfer it (called transloading) to our equipment for delivery and we return the empty flatrack and container to the port or shipper – whoever owns the equipment.
