Permits and escorts are just the start. FreightDeck prices the whole move across all 50 states and Canada, right down to the pole cars, route surveys, bridge review, and utility coordination.
I have spent more than a decade moving freight in this industry, and I built FreightDeck because every other OD rating tool I used felt incomplete. They handle the easy loads fine, but the moment a load gets difficult the costs turn ambiguous, and that's exactly when you need a straight answer.
The Truck Builder started as a custom workflow for my own team. Somewhere along the way I realized it was actually a strong project-freight tool, just because of how it knows how to pair freight on a truck.
I wanted something that stays honest when the freight gets hard. That's the whole idea.

One load, one screen. Every line item, for every state on the route.
Most heavy haul work is one load at a time. But when a customer sends a 200-line project, FreightDeck turns the whole thing into a quote in minutes. What used to take 4 to 5 hours.
A screenshot (our favorite), a BOL, or an Excel project list, even a messy one.
Pulls dimensions and weights off the page and converts the units if they're off.
Custom logic matches each piece to the right trailer and configuration for the whole project.
Every oversize or overweight piece runs through the full cost estimator: permits, escorts, surveys, and the rest.
Export a clean, ready-to-send Excel bid sheet. In minutes.
The difference is the data. FreightDeck runs on our own heavy haul cost dataset, verified against primary state and provincial sources, so the numbers hold up on the hard loads other tools can't price.
FreightDeck is the most complete heavy haul cost estimator, built for oversize freight brokers, oversize carriers, and project-freight forwarders. It prices every cost a permitted oversize or overweight move involves: permits, escorts, pole cars, bucket trucks, route surveys, engineering & bridge review, utility coordination, superloads, and travel restrictions, plus an estimated linehaul baseline, across all 50 states and Canada.
Oversize freight brokers, oversize and heavy-haul carriers, and project-freight forwarders and brokers who quote permitted oversize and overweight moves.
Enter the load's dimensions, weight, and route. FreightDeck returns every cost and requirement for each state on the route: permits, escorts, pole cars, bucket trucks, surveys, superload flags, and travel restrictions, plus an estimated linehaul baseline, across all 50 states and Canada.
Most estimators stop at permits and maybe escorts, and their information degrades as the load gets harder. FreightDeck prices the full cost stack and keeps going, because it runs on its own verified per-state cost data, not a thin layer over someone else's.
From our own heavy haul cost dataset, built and verified from primary state and provincial DOT sources, not scraped or guessed. That depth of data is the whole point. It's why our numbers hold up on the hard loads other tools can't price.
