Flag poles keep getting rejected by freight companies?

Standard freight carriers turn down pole shipments because of the length and specialized securement requirements. Regular trucking companies don't have the right flatbed equipment or tie-down systems for safe pole transport. You need a carrier that handles oversized pole freight as their specialty in New Jersey.

Most freight companies reject flag pole and light pole shipments because poles are too long for standard trailers and require specialized securement. Regular carriers don't want the liability of improperly secured poles shifting during transport. The length makes routing difficult on certain roads and bridges.

Pole shipping typically costs more than standard freight because it requires flatbed trailers with extended length capacity and specialized tie-down equipment. Pricing depends on pole length, weight, and distance. Aluminum poles ship easier than steel, but both need carriers experienced with proper securement methods.
