Overlength permits

Your trailer is over 53′, the whole combination is over the state's legal length, or the load hangs too far off the front or back. We file the overlength permits and flag the escort rules each state sets for length.

What we do for you

  • Overlength permits for every state on the route
  • Rear escort rules for long loads and overhangs
  • Turning and route restrictions where states set them
  • Flags and lights for overhanging loads

How it works

Send the route and load details. We reply with an itemized quote, file once you approve it, follow up with each state and send the permits to you and your driver.

Rules differ by state. See the limits for any state on the permits by state map.
