Perkins was contracted to move three (3) large industrial boilers each weighing 258,000 pounds in early spring. A feasibility and operational study (FOS) was completed to make sure the three pieces could be routed and permitted properly from Oklahoma to New York. The states along this route have very specific requirements that must be met in order to comply with all state, city, and county regulations. Not to mention, the three boilers were each 19' 6" wide, providing another challenge in finding a route that could handle the oversize weight, in addition to the extreme width.

Perkins safely moved 462 pre-cast concrete bridge segments from a pour yard in Coates, MN for a civil contractor company on their massive bridge project, the reconstruction of the I-35W / Crosstown Highway (MN 62) interchange. This was one of the busiest "spaghetti junctions" in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area during rush hour.
