Step Deck Freight Transportation Solutions Nationwide!
At Compare Transport LLC, we specialize in nationwide step deck freight shipping designed to move tall, oversized, and heavy cargo that standard flatbed trailers cannot accommodate. With more than 15 years of experience in freight brokerage and logistics, we connect shippers with trusted carriers who operate the most reliable step deck trailers across the United States and Canada.
Whether you need a full truckload (FTL) or less-than-truckload (LTL) solution, our step deck freight transportation services ensure that your cargo is handled with precision, safety, and efficiency from pickup to delivery.
Step deck transportation (also called drop deck trucking) is a specialized freight solution that uses trailers designed with two deck levels: an upper deck and a lower deck. The lower portion of the trailer sits closer to the ground, giving more vertical clearance for hauling tall equipment and oversized cargo without violating height restrictions.
This type of transportation is commonly used for construction equipment, heavy machinery, industrial parts, and other freight that exceeds the height limit of a standard flatbed trailer. It eliminates the need for additional overheight permits in many cases, saving time and reducing shipping costs.
Benefits of Step Deck Transportation
Choosing step deck trailers for your freight provides several advantages:
In short, step deck transportation offers safety, flexibility, and cost efficiency for oversized freight.
When shipping freight, businesses often wonder whether to hire a freight broker or work directly with a transportation company (carrier). Both have their advantages, but they serve different roles.

The Key Benefit of Using a Broker
The main advantage of using a freight broker is flexibility and cost efficiency. Instead of being tied to a single carrier’s availability and rates, brokers like Compare Transport LLC give shippers access to a nationwide carrier network, expert negotiation, compliance checks, and full shipment monitoring.
This means you get the best equipment, the best price, and the most reliable service—without the stress of managing it all yourself.
Not all shipments can fit onto a standard flatbed trailer. When your freight exceeds height restrictions, a step deck trailer (also known as a drop deck) is the best choice. These trailers feature a dual-level deck, with a lower section that allows taller equipment and machinery to be transported legally without requiring overheight permits in most cases.
