Flatbed
The standard open deck.
Steel, machinery, and building materials on an open deck, loaded by crane or forklift from any side. Suited to freight up to around 48,000 lbs that fits within legal height.

Operated by Rite Way Freight LTD
Vessels and tanks
Pressure vessels, heat exchangers, and tanks move as single oversized pieces, not in parts.
Engineered routes
Clearances, bridge ratings, and turning room are surveyed before the load is committed.
LNG and bunkering
Cryogenic cargo moves on purpose-built equipment under the protocols the freight requires.
About energy freight
Pipe, pressure vessels, tanks, and modular units for energy projects, with the permits and cross-border documentation these programmes involve.
These loads are defined by their dimensions. A vessel that leaves a fabrication shop in one piece has to stay in one piece for the whole trip, which means the route is engineered first — clearances, bridge ratings, turning radii, and the jurisdictions where an escort or a police escort becomes mandatory. Where a lane will not take the piece, that is known before the load is committed rather than at a low bridge.
We also coordinate LNG transport and on-site bunkering operations at ports, with the equipment and protocols required for energy-sector freight. Bunkering is timed to vessel and terminal windows, which makes it a scheduling problem as much as a transport one.
What energy loads ride on
The trailer classes vessels, tanks, and modules move on.
Step-Deck
A lower deck for taller freight.
The main deck sits lower than a flatbed, adding clearance for equipment and crated cargo that would run over-height on a standard deck — so taller loads move legally without permits.
Double-Drop & Lowboy
A low center well for over-height machinery.
The deck drops between the axles to carry tall machinery low to the road, keeping over-height freight under the bridges and wires along the route.
RGN
Removable gooseneck — equipment drives on.
The gooseneck detaches so excavators, cranes, and other tracked or wheeled equipment drive onto the deck under their own power. Configurable to around 150,000 lbs with added axles.
Multi-Axle
Axle lines added for the heaviest loads.
For freight beyond standard legal weight, added axle lines spread the load so it can be permitted and moved. The configuration is engineered to the piece and the route.
Extendable
Decks that stretch for long freight.
Extendable flatbeds and step-decks stretch to carry beams, pipe, and other long freight that overhangs a standard deck, with permits and escorts arranged to match the length.
Tank & Specialized
Purpose-built trailers for energy cargo.
Cryogenic tankers and purpose-built platforms carry LNG and other energy-sector cargo under the handling and safety protocols the freight requires.
What we move for oil, gas, and LNG
- Pressure vessels and separators
- Heat exchangers and columns
- Storage tanks and process tanks
- Compressors and pump skids

Energy regions we serve
Where energy freight moves, and what the work looks like there.
Québec and Ontario
Fabrication shops and refineries, with the shortest lanes to the Montréal base.
Western Canada
Upstream and midstream work — the heaviest and most remote of these loads.
Atlantic Canada
Port work, including LNG and bunkering at terminals.
United States
Cross-border into the Midwest and Gulf, where much of this equipment is built.
5.0
Energy project freight
Energy freight has been part of the operation since 2007, when the fleet moved beyond standard freight into heavy-haul project work.

Great services, unbeatable prices, hassle-free experience. They get it right every time.
Where energy freight moves
Fabrication shops, ports, and project sites are usually far apart, and an oversized vessel can only take certain corridors between them — these are the ones it runs on.
