They’re heavy and oversized, expensive and easily damaged. They’re critical to national transportation and defense, which calls for careful tracking. They ALWAYS need to arrive on time.\r\n\r\nAerospace suppliers build to order, on tight delivery deadlines. Their customers include\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Manufacturers feeding internationally sourced supply chains</li>\r\n 	<li>Airlines with thin stocks of maintenance, repair and overhaul parts</li>\r\n 	<li>Anxious customers faced with unexpected breakdowns</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nShipping delays cause expensive problems.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide#heavyloader\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of super loads. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of super loads. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3763\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Lonestar2-2.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed trucking jobs\" width=\"481\" height=\"302\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Flatbed driver jobs &amp; over-dimensional heavy haul trucking jobs</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.

They’re heavy and oversized, expensive and easily damaged. They’re critical to national transportation and defense, which calls for careful tracking. They ALWAYS need to arrive on time.\r\n\r\nAerospace suppliers build to order, on tight delivery deadlines.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide#heavyloader\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4405\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/turbin.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed driver jobs\" width=\"625\" height=\"362\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Lone Star\'s flatbed &amp; heavy haul drivers are the best on the road.</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.

They’re heavy and oversized, expensive and easily damaged. They’re critical to national transportation and defense, which calls for careful tracking. They ALWAYS need to arrive on time.\r\n\r\nAerospace suppliers build to order, on tight delivery deadlines. Their customers include\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Manufacturers feeding internationally sourced supply chains</li>\r\n 	<li>Airlines with thin stocks of maintenance, repair and overhaul parts</li>\r\n 	<li>Anxious customers faced with unexpected breakdowns</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nShipping delays cause expensive problems. New plane deliveries are postponed. Planes are grounded. Canceled flights trigger nationwide - even global - delays.\r\n\r\nLone Star is one of the most reliable shippers in this time-sensitive industry. Major aerospace suppliers and airlines have awarded our customer service.\r\n\r\nOur specialized flatbed trailers can safely handle oversize aerospace products.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide/\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3763\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Lonestar2-2.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed trucking jobs\" width=\"481\" height=\"302\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Lone Star\'s flatbed &amp; heavy haul drivers are the best on the road.</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.

They’re heavy and oversized, expensive and easily damaged. They’re critical to national transportation and defense, which calls for careful tracking. They ALWAYS need to arrive on time.\r\n\r\nAerospace suppliers build to order, on tight delivery deadlines.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide#heavyloader\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4405\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/turbin.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed driver jobs\" width=\"625\" height=\"362\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Lone Star\'s flatbed &amp; heavy haul drivers are the best on the road.</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.

They’re heavy and oversized, expensive and easily damaged. They’re critical to national transportation and defense, which calls for careful tracking. And they ALWAYS need to arrive on time.\r\n\r\nAerospace suppliers build to order, on tight delivery deadlines. Their customers include\r\n<ul>\r\n 	<li>Manufacturers feeding internationally sourced supply chains</li>\r\n 	<li>Airlines with thin stocks of maintenance, repair and overhaul parts</li>\r\n 	<li>Anxious customers faced with unexpected breakdowns</li>\r\n</ul>\r\nShipping delays cause expensive problems.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide/\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. One moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert heavy haul drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3763\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/Lonestar2-2.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed trucking jobs\" width=\"481\" height=\"302\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Lone Star\'s flatbed &amp; heavy haul drivers are the best on the road.</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.

One large turbine costs less to build than many small ones. The size of new turbines keeps growing, as does the difficulty of moving them from factory to wind farm.\r\n\r\nToday’s wind turbine components are among the largest of <a href=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/heavy-haul-jobs-truck-drivers-guide#heavyloader\">super loads</a>. Blades can span 200 feet. Half a tower may be 15 feet wide and 120 feet long. Nacelles (including generator, gearbox and electrical apparatus) weigh up to 205,000 lbs. (They\'re also too wide to travel through many tunnels.)\r\n\r\nThis isn’t your average flatbed cargo. Wind turbine transport is a highly specialized heavy haul job. It requires custom rigs and experienced driver/support teams. It calls for extensive planning, scouting and permitting as well.\r\n\r\nDelivery of a wind turbine often requires a caravan of 7 to 10 heavy haul trucks. While some pull standard lowboys and drop decks, most haul highly specialized trailers. Three vehicles cradle the blades. Another moves the nacelle. Three to four carry tower sections. One or two more transport smaller components.\r\n\r\nMultiply that by six if you’re shipping six turbines to the same wind farm in a week. Our expert heavy haul drivers and support staff get every truck in the caravan to its final destination on time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]<img class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-4405\" src=\"http://lonestar-llc.biz/wp-content/uploads/2018/07/turbin.jpg\" alt=\"flatbed driver jobs\" width=\"625\" height=\"362\" />[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/toggle][toggle color=\"Accent-Color\" title=\"KNOWN FOR OUR ABILITY TO HANDLE IT ALL \"][vc_row_inner column_margin=\"default\" text_align=\"left\"][vc_column_inner column_padding=\"no-extra-padding\" column_padding_position=\"all\" background_color_opacity=\"1\" background_hover_color_opacity=\"1\" column_shadow=\"none\" column_border_radius=\"none\" width=\"1/2\" column_border_width=\"none\" column_border_style=\"solid\"][vc_column_text]\r\n<h2>Lone Star\'s flatbed &amp; heavy haul drivers are the best on the road.</h2>\r\nLone Star hauls cargo of all types, weights and sizes.
