Our fleet and expert team support industries like mining, construction, agriculture, and renewable energy, ensuring the safe, compliant, and efficient transport of essential machinery, components, and infrastructure. Heavy haulage plays an essential role in Queensland’s economic growth, navigating diverse landscapes from coastal plains to mountain regions to deliver critical assets where they’re needed.
Regulatory and Safety Compliance in Heavy Haulage
At Central Crane Truck, we follow Queensland’s regulations to ensure safe and compliant heavy haulage:
Permits and Approvals
For oversize and over-mass vehicles, we obtain the necessary permits from the Queensland Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR), detailing load, route, and vehicle specifications.
Road Management Coordination
We work closely with road managers and local councils to assess the impact of oversized loads on infrastructure, securing approvals to ensure public safety and road protection.
Inspections and Compliance Checks
Our fleet undergoes regular inspections to meet regulatory standards for vehicle maintenance, load securing, and adherence to route restrictions, ensuring compliance at every stage.
Codes of Practice
Central Crane Truck adheres to best practices for load securing, driver qualifications, and emergency response, maintaining industry standards and public safety.
Addressing Queensland’s Heavy Haulage Challenges
Heavy haulage operations in Queensland face distinct challenges, such as:
Transporting oversized loads requires strict adherence to state and federal regulations, covering vehicle dimensions, weight limits, road usage, and safety standards. We navigate these requirements with expertise, securing necessary permits and approvals to keep every haulage project compliant.
Heavy haulage routes in Queensland vary from well-maintained highways to narrow roads with steep gradients and uneven surfaces. Our fleet is equipped to handle these conditions, minimizing delays and risks through careful route planning.
Queensland’s diverse climate—from the tropical north to the temperate south—presents potential challenges like heavy rain, cyclones, extreme heat, and other adverse weather conditions. Our team coordinates schedules and route planning with consideration for current weather forecasts to maintain safety and efficiency.
Safety is our top priority. We employ escort vehicles, secure load techniques, and provide driver training to ensure every journey prioritizes the protection of both the load and all road users. Our methods are designed to mitigate the risk of infrastructure damage, road incidents, and unexpected delays.

Heavy Haulage Solutions for Key Queensland Industries
Queensland’s rich mineral and resource sectors require the transportation of heavy machinery, such as excavators, haul trucks, and draglines, to mining sites across the state. We specialize in safely moving these large machines between sites, supporting ongoing extraction and processing activities.
Road, bridge, and commercial construction projects often require prefabricated structures, cranes, and materials. Our heavy haulage services enable quick, secure transport for these vital components, supporting Queensland’s infrastructure development.
With Queensland’s emphasis on sustainable energy, we provide specialized transport for large components, including wind turbine blades, solar panels, and other renewable energy infrastructure. Our team ensures that even the largest equipment reaches remote sites safely.
The agricultural sector in Queensland depends on heavy haulage to move large farming equipment—like combines and harvesters—as well as bulky agricultural products. We provide reliable solutions to get these resources where they’re needed, from farms to market.
