Heavy Equipment Transport in Nebraska
Nebraska's agricultural heartland and central location make it a crucial corridor for heavy equipment transport across America. From the corn and cattle operations that define the state's economy to the growing wind energy sector, HEAT Freight provides reliable oversized load transport through the Cornhusker State with expertise in rural delivery and agricultural timing.
Nebraska ranks among the top states for beef cattle production, requiring constant movement of livestock facility equipment, feed systems, and processing machinery. The state's corn and soybean operations demand combines, planters, and grain handling systems. Wind energy development across the state generates turbine component transport needs. The Ogallala Aquifer supports extensive irrigation requiring center pivot systems.
Nebraska Oversize/Overweight Permit Information
Nebraska DOT issues oversize/overweight permits with a 14.5' height limit on most routes—one of the more favorable in the nation. Standard limits are 8.5' width and 80,000 lbs gross weight. Loads over 12' wide require escorts, and superloads exceeding 16' width or 200,000 lbs need advance coordination. Single-trip permits start at $50.

Nebraska Heavy Haul FAQ
What is Nebraska's height limit?
Nebraska allows 14.5' height without permits on most routes, which is among the most favorable limits nationally. This simplifies transport of tall equipment. We verify specific route clearances for loads approaching this limit.
Can you transport irrigation equipment across Nebraska?
Yes, we regularly transport center pivot irrigation systems, pumps, and related equipment throughout Nebraska's agricultural regions. We coordinate with farm schedules and navigate the rural roads common to irrigation equipment delivery.
What are the escort requirements in Nebraska?
Nebraska requires front escort for loads over 12' wide and dual escorts for loads over 14' wide. Loads over 100' long need front and rear escorts. We coordinate all escort services as part of our transport package.
How do you handle Sandhills region delivery?
The Sandhills present unique challenges with limited paved roads and soft terrain. We use appropriate equipment, verify road conditions, and coordinate with local authorities for oversize loads in this region. Our experienced drivers understand the terrain.
