Over-dimensional loads are required to have permits to move on public roads for safety and convenience. The state is home to several cities like Hartford, New Haven, and Shelton, which might require loads to acquire permits from the city authorities. Over the years in the industry, we have mastered these complex regulations and have helped thousands of customers haul oversize and overweight loads without issues.

How to Determine if a Load Exceeds Legal Dimensions in Connecticut
How Do You Measure a Load To Know Its Size and Weight?
The dimensions of a load are used to acquire permits and determine their cost. They also determine the number and type of needed pilot cars. It is, therefore, crucial that these dimensions are accurate. When checking for dimensions, the vehicle should be on level ground and in a straight line. When weighing the vehicle load combination, the load should be evenly distributed for precise results. The overall length is the combined length of the truck, trailer, and any load overhangs extending beyond both ends. The width is the distance between the two widest points on each side of the vehicle. The overall height is the combined height of the trailer and the load. It’s best measured with the load on the vehicle, as it might not sit flat on the trailer bed. When measuring the weight, use suitable scales and check for the gross, per axle, and load weights.
