Bolacerta
Measuring Your Load: Dimensions & Weight
Before anything else, measure length, width, height and gross weight accurately. Learn the standard tolerance limits and the point at which a load becomes 'abnormal'.
Read →Bolacerta is the field guide to oversized and heavy cargo transport in Latvia — permits, routes and escorts, broken down for the people who actually move the load.
Bolacerta is an independent guide built for the crews who move abnormal loads across Latvia. That clear, checked guidance is the whole point of Bolacerta. We strip the regulations back to what matters on the ground: what you can move, how, and what it takes to stay legal.
From the first tape measure to the final roadside check, we lay out every stage in plain terms — so nothing about your move is left to chance.
We turn dense abnormal-load regulations into a clear sequence you can actually follow — measure, classify, plan, apply, move.
Bridge capacities, overhead clearances and turning radii, explained so your route survives contact with reality instead of failing at the first low viaduct.
Permit fees, escort costs and road-damage compensation laid out plainly, alongside the fines that make cutting corners a costly shortcut.
Heavy-transport rules shift year to year. We track the changes so your paperwork reflects the limits and procedures actually in force.
We picture a haulage sector where every heavy or oversized load moves safely, legally and without drama. Knowing the rules cold is what makes that possible — so we put that knowledge in reach of every operator.
Before anything else, measure length, width, height and gross weight accurately. Learn the standard tolerance limits and the point at which a load becomes 'abnormal'.
