Any load over 80,000 lbs gross combined weight or exceeding 8'6" wide, 13'6" tall, or 53' long qualifies as a permit load in most states. Heavy-haul dispatch handles anything from 80,001 lbs up through superloads over 200,000 lbs with axle-configuration engineering and multi-state routing.
We handle both. Our permit desk files single-state and multi-state permits, coordinates certified pilot cars (front/rear/high-pole), books police escorts when required, and delivers the entire permit packet plus route sheet to you digitally before pickup.
