When Does a Load Require Permits in Idaho?

Idaho Oversize and Overweight Load Limits

Idaho's legal load dimensions are as follows: 

  • Length: 48 feet for single vehicles or 75 feet for vehicle combinations
  • Width: 8 feet 6 inches
  • Height: 14 feet
  • Weight: 80,000 pounds Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW)

When your load exceeds the above dimensions and weight, it must be accompanied by permits. The Idaho DOT assigns these permits, but you can only acquire them through a verified company, such as ours.

How to Determine if a Load Exceeds Idaho Legal Limits

How Do You Measure the Size and Weight of Oversize and Overweight Loads?

Measuring your load's dimensions and weight is critical to complying with Idaho's regulations. Accurate measurements guarantee compliance, ensure road safety, and help streamline the permitting process. A load's dimension determines both the permit costs and approval times. The overall length is calculated by combining the lengths of the truck, trailer, and any overhang on both ends. Width is measured at the widest point of the vehicle or load, while height is taken from the ground to the tallest part of the load when loaded on the trailer. For example, if a trailer is 5 feet high and the load is 12 feet tall, the total height will be 17 feet. The weight should be measured in three categories: the gross weight, the per axle weight, and the load weight.
