How to get the oversize/overweight permits
As part of our oversize permit service, we offer the processing of oversize, overweight, oversize/overweight, trip and fuel permits. However, to determine which specific permit is required in your case, it is necessary to consult with our permit agent.

To obtain a trip permit, please contact our permit agent by phone in the "Contacts" section on the website. He/she will provide you with assistance and guidance on all inquiries, inform you about the required information for obtaining the permit, and more.
How much do oversize/overweight permits cost
The cost directly depends on the gross weight and dimensions of a load. Depending on the state, your dimensions and gross weight, the permit price can range from $9 to $1000 and over.
How long does it take to obtain a permit?
Each case is individual. It depends on the state regulations, workload of a specific Department of Transportation/Department of Motor vehicles/Department of Public Safety (DOT, DMV, DPS), and your dimensions. For some states, it is possible to obtain a permit within 15 minutes. However, there are states where the review process may take over 24 hours.
Can I drive at night?
Each state has its own regulations. There are states that allow night driving, and there are states that do not permit it. Our permit agent will provide guidance on this matter based on A planned route.
Can I deviate from the route specified in the permit?
No, you can not. You are only allowed to exit at the nearest truck stops and weigh stations along the road.
Can I drive on holidays or weekends?
It depends on the regulations of a state and your dimensions. Most states do not allow driving on holidays and weekends, before and after a holiday.
What is considered an oversize/overweight load
An oversize permit is required in all cases when the load being transported exceeds the allowable limits (depending on the laws of a specific state, an oversize/overweight permit must be obtained). Oversize permit service is very popular as carriers often need to transport large loads through the territories of several states.
More specifically, such permits as overweight permits, OSOW permits, or overweight truck permits are usually required to transport cargo that weighs over 80,000 lbs and has dimensions over 75' long, 8'6 wide, 13'6 tall.

When do you need a oversize/overweight permit
Our oversize permit service is specialized in most of the load types. In other words, you can obtain oversize, overweight, trip and fuel permits with our assistance. Typically, these permits are required if a load has dimensions exceeding 75’ long, 8 feet 6 inches wide, 13 feet 6 inches tall, and the gross weight over 80,000 pounds.

An oversize/overweight load permit is mandatory to obtain if a transported cargo exceeds 75’ long, 8 feet 6 inches wide, 13 feet 6 inches tall, and has a gross weight over 80,000 pounds.

Yes, you need to obtain permits if the steering axle group exceeds 12,000 pounds, the tandem axle group exceeds 34,000 pounds, or the tridem axle group exceeds 40,000 pounds (limits may vary depending on a state).
Are there any loads that do not require permits?
Yes, there are, but they are limited by size restrictions and not applicable in all states. It is best to discuss a planned route with our permit agent to check the necessity of permits.

Each state has its own regulations. If your dimensions exceed the maximum allowable limits (gross weight over 80,000 pounds and dimensions exceeding 75 long, 8 feet 6 wide, 13 feet 6 inches tall), it is advisable to clarify the necessity of ordering a pilot car service with our permit agent.
However, it is important to remember that regulations can vary in each state. Therefore, we always arrange oversize pilot services based on the specific route to ensure 100% compliant transportation.
