How Can We Help?

Here are some of the most common questions and answers about WCS Permits & Pilot Cars and oversize permits.

If a commercial vehicle is oversize or overweight, a temporary oversize load permit (also known as a truck permit) is needed for it to legally travel.  

In most cases a load is considered an oversize load and requires a state or county oversize load permit when:

  • The load’s height exceeds 13’6″ or 14’0” depending on the state or province
  • The load’s width exceeds 8’6″
  • The load’s length varies by state and province
  • The load’s weight exceeds 80,000 pounds in some states, but this varies by state and province

When the size – weight, height, length or width – of a load exceeds the standard oversize load permit limits for a specific state, and is not divisible (cannot be broken down), it is considered a superload.

You can contact us and speak to one of our agents to order oversize truck permits. Click here to view our contact page for contact information and hours. Once you are set up as a customer in our system, you can then request access to order your permits through our online permit portal.

Every state, province, city, county, township and indian reservation has different oversize load permits requirements. In each government agency state, an oversize load permit is needed when a load exceeds a specific legal weight or dimension – height, width or length. WCS Permits understands what is considered overweight vs. legal weight, and what dimensions exceed each state’s standard requirements making an oversize load permit necessary for travel.
