Lumber Shipping
Lumber shipping requires specialized freight coordination due to long lengths, heavy bundles, and exposure risks during transit. These shipments often move between mills, distribution centers, warehouses, and active job sites where timing and access matter. Nexfr8 Brokerage ensures lumber arrives secure, compliant, and jobsite-ready.
Dimensional Lumber
We ship standard dimensional lumber in bundled or palletized form, ensuring proper strapping and load balance to prevent shifting. Common destinations include distribution yards, warehouses, and construction sites.
Engineered Wood Products
Engineered lumber require careful handling due to length and load sensitivity. We coordinate appropriate trailer types and securement for long-span materials.
Plywood & OSB Panels
Sheet goods like plywood and OSB move as palletized or unitized freight and require protection from moisture and edge damage. We plan routes and equipment to minimize exposure during transit.
Treated & Specialty Lumber
Pressure-treated and specialty lumber often moves in heavier bundles and may require additional spacing or tarping. We ensure compliance with weight limits and proper load distribution.
Long-Length Lumber Loads
Oversized lumber exceeding standard trailer lengths requires open-deck equipment and experienced carriers. We manage securement, routing, and any required permits for extended loads.
Jobsite & Bulk Lumber Deliveries
Bulk lumber deliveries to active jobsites require precise scheduling and access planning. We coordinate delivery windows, site conditions, and unloading requirements to avoid delays.
