Hello everyone.
I'm getting ready to transport my first oversized load and have been researching permitted oversize hauling requirements. While I've found plenty of general information, I'm hoping to hear from people with real-world experience.
How do you plan your routes to avoid low bridges, weight restrictions, or unexpected road closures? Do you rely entirely on GPS made for trucks, or do you double-check with state transportation resources?
I'd also like to know how often permit routes change and whether you've ever had to make last-minute adjustments.
What planning habits have saved you the most time and prevented costly mistakes?
