oversized items

Large freight pieces

Oversized items are things too large for standard handling, shipping, or storage.

The term appears most often in retail and logistics, where items exceeding certain dimensions incur extra fees or require special arrangements: Oversized items ship separately.

Airlines, moving companies, and garbage services each define their own thresholds for what counts as oversized.
