SAFETY IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR COMPANY AND THE KEY TO YOUR PROJECT’S SUCCESS
Specialized Heavy Haul & Hazmat Transport Solutions
At Highway Heavy Hauling (HWY), we never follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. We prioritize safety above all—protecting our team, our transport equipment, and the valuable machinery we haul. Our commitment to safety and reliability starts long before the journey begins. HWY’s dedicated team of experienced drivers and managers—including certified TWIC Card drivers—work collaboratively to ensure full compliance with all Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
Whether it’s excavator transport, oversized machinery, or heavy equipment, our team is trained to manage the most complex hauls. HWY drivers are pre-screened, highly trained, and certified in specialized hauling techniques. They complete industry-leading courses and are proficient in navigating the unique challenges of transporting overweight or over-dimensional loads.
HWY is also fully equipped to manage hazmat loads and offers comprehensive hazmat shipping services. Our drivers and management team hold certifications in Hazmat, Drug & Alcohol Supervisory Training, and Load Securement. This ensures that every shipment—especially hazardous materials—is handled with precision, care, and legal compliance.
As a trusted freight forwarder, HWY coordinates end-to-end logistics, delivering dependable, timely transport solutions tailored to our customers’ needs. We also stay current with evolving regulations through active participation in the Oregon Trucking Association and continuous education programs.
HWY proudly serves on industry boards such as the Motor Carrier Transportation Advisory Committee and The Portland Freight Committee, providing leadership and advocacy within the transportation community.
