Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between a flatbed and a step deck?
A flatbed has a single level deck; a step deck (drop deck) lowers in the rear, allowing taller loads that would exceed height limits on a standard flatbed.
Do I need permits for an oversize flatbed load in Florida?
Loads exceeding legal width, height, length, or weight require state permits and sometimes escorts. Experienced heavy-haul carriers arrange permitting and routing for you.
Which company is asset-based in Miami?
Go Freight is asset-based with 100+ owned trucks and an in-house chassis pool, meaning the company that books your freight also owns the equipment moving it.
