Mississippi's agricultural heritage, growing manufacturing sector, and Gulf Coast industries create diverse heavy equipment transport needs. From the Delta's cotton and soybean operations to automotive manufacturing in the north, from offshore oil support in Pascagoula to timber operations statewide, HEAT Freight serves the Magnolia State with regional expertise.
Mississippi's automotive industry includes major assembly plants requiring production equipment and tooling transport. The Delta's agricultural operations need combines, cotton pickers, and grain handling systems. Shipbuilding in Pascagoula generates demand for heavy fabricated components. Timber operations throughout the state require logging and mill equipment. Poultry processing facilities need processing and refrigeration systems.
MDOT issues oversize/overweight permits with straightforward procedures. Mississippi allows 24-hour movement of permitted loads on most routes. Standard limits are 8'6" width, 13'6" height, and 80,000 lbs. The state coordinates well with neighboring states for regional transport.
Does Mississippi allow 24-hour oversize movement?
Yes, Mississippi permits oversize load movement around the clock on most routes with proper permits. This provides flexibility for scheduling and can reduce transit times. Some specific bridges or areas may have time restrictions that we verify during route planning.
Can you serve Mississippi automotive plants?
Yes, we transport equipment to Mississippi's automotive facilities including Toyota (Blue Springs) and Nissan (Canton), plus the supplier network. We coordinate with plant logistics teams and understand the time-critical nature of production equipment deliveries.
How do you handle Delta agricultural equipment transport?
We have extensive experience with Mississippi Delta farm equipment including cotton pickers, combines, and grain handling systems. We understand the region's rural roads and coordinate with farm schedules. Timing around planting and harvest seasons is critical.
Can you transport to Gulf Coast shipyards?
Yes, we serve Ingalls Shipbuilding and other Gulf Coast marine operations with transport of heavy fabricated components, equipment, and materials. We coordinate with shipyard schedules and handle the oversize loads common to ship construction projects.
