The freight has no ordinary corrective move
A transformer or machine cannot be redistributed like palletized freight.
For heavy haul
Plan non-divisible freight from axle group to permit pathway.
When the freight cannot be split, “move the pallet” is not an answer. Identify the overloaded groups, test the equipment and corridor, and send genuine permit candidates into the right review path.
Where the current process breaks
Three moments worth fixing first.
The axle group and gross questions differ
More axles can improve group allowance while the combination still requires an overweight permit.
A road that fits the dimensions can still fail the load
Clearance, structure, grade, weather and permit conditions belong in the same review.
The workflow
One decision carried through four steps.
- 01
Model the equipment and piece
Use actual axle positions, ratings, dimensions and centre of gravity.
- 02
Enumerate the binding groups
Show the statutory or equipment limit for every relevant axle group.
- 03
Test the corridor
Review truck restrictions, elevation, grades and the planned operating conditions.
- 04
Separate permit candidates
Send non-divisible over-limit loads to permit review with the overage and route context attached.

What changes
Four practical outcomes.
No invented savings figure. These are the changes the workflow is designed to produce and the claims you can test during rollout.
The impossible move is named early
Stop spending time on a redistribution that cannot solve the load.
Equipment comparisons use the same freight
See how axle count, spacing and position change the group results.
Permit review receives useful inputs
Carry the groups, overages, dimensions and corridor into the workflow.
The system boundary stays honest
AxleGuard identifies and tracks permit candidates; it does not issue a government permit.
Per-axle weight engine
Solves where the weight actually sits, axle by axle.
Permits and non-divisible loads
When the load cannot be made legal, route it to a permit.
Route grade, wind and fuel intelligence
See the terrain and conditions that distance alone hides.
Routes a truck can actually take
A road that fits the truck, and a load that passes the scale on it.
Good fit when
- You move non-divisible or oversize freight
- Equipment geometry and axle groups vary by move
- Permit and route review must start before dispatch
Not what this page promises
- You need a government permit issued automatically
- You want escort services or route surveys supplied by AxleGuard
- You have no verified equipment dimensions or axle geometry
Questions
Before you evaluate it.
Does AxleGuard issue permits?
No. It identifies permit candidates and carries the load, equipment and route information into review. Issuance remains with the responsible authority and permit workflow.
Does it support every specialized trailer?
The data model supports multi-axle equipment, but each geometry and solver case must be verified during implementation. Unsupported combinations must be stated rather than approximated silently.
Can it replace a route survey?
No. It can organize provider restrictions and route intelligence. A required field survey, engineering review or authority approval remains a separate source of evidence.
Evaluate it with evidence
Start with one load, the actual equipment and the real lane.
Keep the process you use today beside it. Resolve every disagreement before the result is used operationally.
