Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day (MLK Day) is a federal holiday, so for some shippers moving oversize/overweight (OSOW) freight, it may not be business as usual.
The transportation industry entered 2025 carrying familiar baggage: soft demand, excess capacity, and a persistent sense of uncertainty that had defined the market for the prior two years.
Key Takeaways:
Heavy haul shipments are some of the most complex loads to move. Most will require permitting and route planning, a specialized trailer, a heavy haul truck, an experienced driver, and a thorough plan for safe loading, transport, and unloading.
During the winter months, blizzards and ice in the northernmost states may impact your shipping schedule. But did you know there's another factor that could impact your deliveries as winter transitions into spring?
As February 2026 approaches, the trucking industry enters a dynamic period characterized by seasonal trends, regional challenges, and opportunities for optimization.
Moving oversize (OS) and overweight (OW) freight on and around a holiday can be complicated.
Does it seem like your freight shipments are failing more lately? You’re not alone — and you’re not imagining things.
