Oversize and Overweight Permits in Hawaii
Nationwide Transport Services offers expert permit acquisition services for oversized and overweight loads in Hawaii. Known for its breathtaking landscapes and scenic coastal roads, Hawaii presents unique challenges for transporting over-dimensional loads. Whether moving equipment to the bustling city of Honolulu or navigating Maui's narrow, winding roads, obtaining the oversize/overweight permits is essential in ensuring compliance with state regulations and avoiding penalties. Due to Hawaii's unique geography and limited infrastructure, following these regulations closely for an incident-free shipment is vital. Roads and bridges on Hawaii's islands often have lower capacity than mainland highways, requiring careful planning for oversized and overweight loads. Nationwide Transport Services offers complementary services such as shipping, pilot car services, and loading and unloading assistance. We are a one-stop shop for all our customers' shipping needs.

How to Determine if a Load Exceeds Legal Size and Weight Limits in Hawaii
What Is the Right Way To Measure a Load To Get Its Dimensions and Weight?
Hawaii's terrain includes mountains, coastal plains, and active volcanoes, making transporting oversized loads tricky. Before requesting a permit, you'll need accurate measurements of your load to determine if it exceeds Hawaii's legal limits. They include:
- Overall length: Measured from the front of the truck to the end of the load, including any overhangs.
- Width: Measured at the widest point of the load, not just the trailer.
- Height: Measured from the ground to the highest point of the load, with the load on the trailer.
- Weight: Three measurements are required: the gross vehicle weight, which includes the truck, trailer, and load; the per axle weight; and the load weight. Always use certified truck scales for the most accurate measurements.
