OversizeRate.com was developed with one goal in mind: to simplify oversize logistics and help transportation professionals quote with confidence.

Creating an accurate heavy haul and oversize rate calculation platform is not something that happens overnight. OversizeRate.com represents more than two years of planning, research, development, testing, and continuous improvement by transportation professionals and software engineers working together to solve one of the industry's biggest challenges—estimating transportation rates quickly and accurately.


Developed by Industry Professionals

The foundation of OversizeRate.com comes from the real-world experience of professionals who have spent over 20 years working in the transportation and logistics industry.

Our development team collaborated with experienced:


  1. Heavy Haul Freight Agents
  2. Freight Brokers
  3. Freight Forwarders

Built on Years of Transportation Data

OversizeRate.com was designed using extensive analysis of heavy haul and oversize transportation trends collected over the past five years.

Rather than relying on a single pricing model, the platform was developed by evaluating transportation activity across a wide range of market conditions, including:

  4. Low fuel price environments
  5. Carrier capacity fluctuations
  6. Economic slowdowns and recessions
  7. Market conditions before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic


Studying these different market cycles helped create a more flexible and realistic rate calculation model that better reflects how transportation pricing changes over time.

OversizeRate.com combines transportation knowledge with modern software engineering and intelligent technologies.

Our platform integrates multiple data points and pricing factors, including:


  1. Transportation routing
  2. Shipment dimensions
  3. Weight
  4. Permit requirements
  5. Escort vehicle requirements
  6. Fuel cost trends
  7. Carrier availability
  8. Seasonal demand
  9. Market conditions
  10. Regional transportation factors


The system also incorporates AI-assisted technologies and continuously evolving market intelligence to help keep rate calculations aligned with changing industry conditions.
