Superload Permits
Moving something massive? We handle the permits, routing, engineering, escorts, and agency coordination required for Superloads—so you stay compliant and on schedule.
What’s a Superload?
A Superload exceeds even standard Oversize/Overweight (OS/OW) permit limits. Thresholds vary by state, but typically push well beyond conventional dimensions or weight and require advanced planning and multi-agency coordination.
Common Dimensions
- Width: Often over 16 ft
- Height: Often over 16–17 ft
- Length: Often over 125–150 ft
Common Weight
- Gross weight frequently over 200,000 lb
- Per-axle & bridge formula checks apply
Why Superloads Are More Complex
Route surveys & traffic control plans (TCPs)
Pilot or police escorts
Bridge engineering or structural analysis
Utility coordination for lines/signals
Time-of-day restrictions (curfews, weekend limits)
