The specialized freight trucking industry in the United States is a significant economic force, worth over $125 billion annually. This robust sector is experiencing steady growth, driven primarily by nationwide infrastructure projects and the increasing demand for renewable energy transport.
Scale is a defining characteristic of this industry, with more than 10 million oversize/overweight permits issued annually across the country. These permits primarily facilitate the transport of construction equipment, generators, turbines, and agricultural machinery.
Most heavy hauls involve substantial loads weighing between 40,000 to 120,000 pounds and spanning up to 20 feet wide, highlighting the specialized expertise required for safe and efficient transport.
California stands out among the top three states for oversize transport demand, a position attributed to its bustling ports, extensive agricultural operations, and thriving technology manufacturing centers.
Coastal states like California face additional complexity due to environmental protection zones along transport routes, with approximately 15% of heavy hauls involving marine-related industries.
Customer expectations in this specialized industry are clear and demanding. A recent industry survey revealed that 92% of heavy equipment buyers consider on-time delivery and damage-free transport their top priorities.

All oversize loads entering the City of Evansville, in Converse County, must conform to the requirements set by the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT). WYDOT's regulations are the primary governing factor for state highways within Evansville.
In general, any vehicle exceeding 8 feet 6 inches in width, 13 feet 6 inches in height, or exceeding 80,000 lbs gross vehicle weight should obtain an oversize/overweight load permit from WYDOT. The Evansville Public Works Department may have additional requirements for local roads.
Loads exceeding 14 feet in width or 15 feet in height often require a route survey to ensure clearance under overpasses and around power lines, particularly along the older sections of Highway 20/26 within Evansville.
Escort vehicles are generally required in Evansville when a load exceeds 12 feet in width, 14 feet 6 inches in height, or extends more than 10 feet beyond the front or rear of the transporting vehicle. Specific requirements depend on the route and time of day.
For loads exceeding 14 feet in width within the city limits, a local police escort may be required, especially during peak traffic hours (7:00 AM - 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM). Contact the Evansville Police Department at (307) 234-0222 to schedule an escort and inquire about fees, which typically range from $50 to $75 per hour.
Permits for travel on state highways within Evansville are obtained through the WYDOT Motor Vehicle Services Division. You can apply online through the WYDOT Permit System or by contacting them directly at (307) 777-4800. For local road permits, contact the Evansville Public Works Department at (307) 234-6657.
Documentation requirements include a detailed description of the load, vehicle dimensions, route plan, and proof of insurance. For oversized equipment, provide a manufacturer's specification sheet or certified weight slip.
Time-of-day restrictions may apply for extremely large loads traveling through residential areas of Evansville, particularly near schools during drop-off and pick-up times (7:30 AM - 8:30 AM and 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM).
Seasonal weight restrictions may be imposed on certain roads during the spring thaw (typically March-April) to prevent damage to the pavement. Check with the Evansville Public Works Department for updates.
Avoid using residential streets like Curtis Street and Cherry Street for through traffic whenever possible. These streets are narrow and have low-hanging power lines.
WYDOT permit fees are based on weight, dimensions, and distance traveled. Base fees typically start around $25 for a single-trip permit and increase incrementally based on these factors. Evansville does not typically charge additional fees for local permits if the load is already permitted by WYDOT.
Additional charges may apply for loads requiring escorts, route surveys, or special handling. Overweight permits can incur substantial fees based on the amount the load exceeds legal weight limits.
