Overweight Container Drayage — FDOT-Permitted | Miami

New Roads Logistics handles overweight and heavy container drayage at Port of Miami and Port Everglades. We manage FDOT overweight permits, axle-weight compliance, and specialized routing for containers exceeding standard weight limits.

Overweight Container Capabilities

Standard Florida gross vehicle weight limit is 80,000 lbs. With a sealed-container overweight permit from FDOT, we can haul containers up to approximately 65,000 lbs cargo weight depending on the chassis and tractor combination. We provide multi-axle chassis (tri-axle and quad-axle) to distribute weight across more axles and comply with bridge formula requirements.

Out-of-Gauge Cargo

For cargo that does not fit in a standard container — machinery, structural steel, oversized equipment — we handle flat racks and open-top containers. FDOT oversize/overweight permits, route surveys, and escort coordination are managed by our team.

How It Works

• Provide your container weight and dimensions
• We determine permit requirements and chassis type
• FDOT permit obtained (blanket or single-trip)
• TWIC-certified driver picks up at PortMiami or Port Everglades
• Permitted route to delivery point with live GPS tracking
• Digital proof of delivery upon completion
