For the freight that doesn’t fit the standard playbook.
Most shipments move dock to dock on a dry van and nobody thinks twice about it. Then there’s everything else: the delivery with no loading dock, the crate that’s twelve feet wide, the equipment that has to be set in place rather than left at the curb. AJE Freight Solutions arranges the equipment, permits, and handling that those shipments actually require.
Specialized freight is any shipment that needs equipment, handling, or access beyond a standard trailer and a forklift on both ends. That covers a wide range: oversized loads that need permits and escorts, deliveries to locations without a dock, freight that has to go inside a building, and commodities with handling requirements of their own.
What these shipments have in common is that the details determine whether the delivery succeeds. A truck that shows up without a liftgate at a residence isn’t a minor inconvenience, it’s a failed delivery, a redelivery fee, and a day lost. Getting the requirements right before dispatch is most of the job.
Tell us the constraints when you request a quote, including anything you’re unsure about, and we’ll match the shipment to equipment that can actually complete it.
A hydraulic platform on the back of the truck that lowers freight to ground level. Required anywhere there’s no loading dock or forklift: residences, small businesses, retail storefronts, construction sites, and self-storage facilities. Request it when you quote so the right truck is dispatched the first time.
Smaller trucks for locations a 53-foot tractor trailer physically cannot reach. Narrow residential streets, tight urban alleys, low-clearance parking structures, and older commercial districts with limited turning room all call for a box truck or straight truck rather than a full-size trailer.
Full-service handling beyond dropping the freight at the door. The crew brings the shipment inside, places it in the room you specify, unpacks and assembles where required, and removes the packaging and debris. Standard for furniture, medical and lab equipment, fitness equipment, appliances, high-end retail, and anything a receiver can’t handle on their own.
The driver moves freight past the threshold and into the building rather than leaving it at the curb or dock. A step below white glove, and often all that’s needed for offices, retail, and small businesses without material handling equipment.
Loads that exceed legal limits for length, width, height, or weight. We arrange the right open-deck equipment, secure state permits, coordinate pilot cars and escorts where required, and plan routes around bridges, weight-restricted roads, and low clearances.
Flatbed, step deck, double drop, and lowboy trailers for freight that loads from the side or overhead, or that’s too tall for a standard trailer: steel, lumber, building materials, machinery, and equipment.
Refrigerated and frozen transport for food, beverages, pharmaceuticals, flowers, and other climate-sensitive commodities, with temperature settings confirmed before dispatch.
Placarded freight moved by carriers with hazmat endorsements and the correct insurance for the classification. Send us the UN number, class, and packing group when you request a quote.
Deliveries to homes, farms, ranches, schools, churches, military bases, prisons, mines, and construction sites. These locations carry access restrictions and accessorial charges that we account for upfront rather than after the fact.
The last leg from a distribution center or warehouse to the end customer’s door, with scheduled appointment windows, notification calls, and threshold or room-of-choice placement.
Coordination with receivers who require scheduled delivery windows, advance notice, or check-in procedures. We handle the calls so your customer isn’t chasing a driver.
A trailer spotted at your facility for loading on your schedule, or dedicated equipment assigned to a recurring lane.

If your shipment has a requirement you don’t see listed here, ask. Most of what we handle started as a customer describing a problem rather than picking from a menu.
