Okay, so I’m used to just “running it” because well I’ve worked for companies that didn’t care about their equipment or how much weight you put in it.
Now that I have my own stuff, I want to make sure I’m legal and well, the trailer can hold it.
I have a customer that wants me to haul a 110,000lbs crane track.
Can I put that on a 4 axel flatdeck with a 4 axel truck or will I need Jeep’s and boosters, etc.
Here’s where i was told it was okay - 100k track on this setup.

How hi it will be on that trailer will tell you if you will have to pay for escort/s and how much extra you have to charge them?

If you look at the trailer’s vin number plate, there’s a gvwh there too, that will tell you if your trailer can hold it.

This trailer is a 104,000 lbs according to the gvwr tag.
Our steel tridem stepdeck easily held 50 tons of concrete slabs when we did local back roads.
It did not bend like that 4 axle in the OP’s picture.
Now, some older trailers look saggy instead of arched. Doesn’t mean it’s worn out or weak. Just the way it’s built.shooter19802003 Thanks this.
