It was the truck's trailer, loaded with fruit, that overturned in the ditch just before 1 o'clock last night.
But during the morning, the tractor itself was still standing on the road, blocking traffic.
No person should have been injured in the accident, but the salvage work means that traffic on Highway 30 is diverted.
According to the Swedish Transport Administration's forecast, the work will continue until nine o'clock.
Emergency services are no longer on site.
