Comprehensive Pilot Car Services in Montreal
Moving your oversized load to and from Montreal requires safety and efficiency. That's why you must work with an experienced escort car company offering comprehensive pilot car services. Heavy Haulers has been offering reliable and comprehensive oversized load escort vehicles for over 14 years in Montreal. We have a wide network of modern pilot cars, ensuring your load has the required number of lead and chase cars depending on the load's weight and size. Also, all our pilot car drivers are experienced, insured, and certified to ensure your load gets to its destination safely and on time.
But why are pilot cars necessary? For starters, escort vehicles warn other motorists of the oversized load. They also help control the traffic flow for easy maneuverability of the oversized load. A trailer carrying your oversized load will need one or more pilot cars, depending on the dimensions of your load. It's important to note that rules for pilot cars vary from one city to the other. Fortunately, we have a team of logistics experts who understand and follow the laws and regulations regarding pilot car requirements in Montreal. Our commitment is to ensure your oversized load is transported safely for seamless oversized load hauling.
Secure Wide Load Escort Services in Montreal
Navigating the busy streets of Montreal when transporting oversized loads requires secure wide-load escort services. We understand that without the services of pilot cars, it can be unsafe for truck drivers to change lanes, pass vehicles, or park. That's why our secure Montreal escort vehicle services include comprehensive route surveys, traffic management, and real-time communication.
We may provide lead and chase cars depending on your oversized load size. Lead vehicles ensure the oversized load follows the correct route provided in the permit and alert the truck driver of the oncoming traffic or obstacle. On the other hand, chase vehicles alert the oversized load driver of the traffic coming from behind and help them change lanes or turn. As one of the safety measures, all our pilot cars are fitted with necessary equipment like signage to indicate the presence of an oversized load, brightly colored flags and flashing lights to draw the attention of other road users, and CB radio for easier communication with the truck drivers. Other necessary equipment includes first aid kits, fire extinguishers, reflective triangles, and safety vest.
Whether you are shipping construction equipment, wind turbines, oversized vehicles, or other over-dimensional loads, we have secure B2B and B2C Montreal escort vehicle services. Contact Heavy Haulers today for comprehensive pilot car services.
