Specialized Shipping Solutions in Jackson, WY for Freight Standard Carriers Won't Take
Each freight company maintains a list of what they will not haul: too big, too heavy, too fragile, too valuable, too odd a shape, too sensitive to vibration or temperature. That list is where our specialized shipping work in Jackson begins. Redman Van & Storage builds the packaging, chooses the equipment, and dispatches crews trained to manage cargo that has no second copy.

Permitting, Escorts, and Route Planning
Over-sized freight has to navigate grades, tunnels, bridge ratings, and seasonal restrictions on every corridor leaving Jackson. We take care of permitting for oversized and overweight loads, coordinate pilot cars and escorts where needed, and plan routes around the actual clearances of the corridor rather than the shortest line on a map.
The Way a Custom Shipment Gets Scoped
- Item assessment capturing measurements, weight, value, fragility, and any manufacturer handling specifications.
- Packaging planning, we determine whether the item needs a crate, a travel frame, suspension packing, or blanket wrap, and build to that spec.
- Equipment and transport mode selection matched to the risk profile rather than the rate.
- Route planning and site access at both ends, which includes permits, escorts, and any rigging or lift support needed to load and unload.
- Paperwork, condition report and photographs before pickup, again at delivery, with transit indicators where the shipment calls for them.

FAQ Block (schema-ready)
What makes a shipment 'specialized'?
Anything that cannot move safely on standard LTL or truckload service: oversized or overweight dimensions, high value, fragility, shock or temperature sensitivity, irregular shape, or the need for rigging, crating, or disassembly. If a conventional carrier has declined the freight or excluded it from coverage, it falls into this category.
Do you make custom crates in Jackson?
Yes. From our Jackson facility, we design and build crates to the item, including foam-in-place and suspension packing for delicate equipment and ISPM-15 compliant export crating for international shipments.
Are you able to arrange permits for oversized shipments?
Yes. We arrange Wyoming permits for oversized and overweight loads, dispatch pilot cars and escorts where required, and plan routes around height, weight, and seasonal restrictions along the corridor.
