Driver-friendly freight
Overbye is a full-truckload carrier, with most loads “decked freight” utilizing our patented OverRide system. Our owner operators never have to transport HAZMAT goods and we don’t force our dispatches. Our average load travels 1,200 miles.
Minnesota based
Overbye Transport’s 10-acre headquarters and logistics compound is located just south of the Twin Cities where we offer free truck and car parking and 24/7 amenities including shower.

A couple more advantages for owner operators when they team up with Overbye Transport:
1) They can be part of our OverRide system which is a two-tiered decking system mainly for rolling stock freight. Overbye customers love the system (which we invented) and owner operators love the fact that freight loading and unloading goes so smoothly.
2) Owner operators like the fact that they’re participating in a trucking system that is “greener”. OverRide allows customers to haul as much as double the number of rolling stock units as compared to a traditional trailer.
