Types of Over-Dimension Loads in Oregon for Heavy Machinery Shipping
Overheight Load – Motor carriers moving loads that exceed 14 feet in height are required to obtain an over-dimension permit and are subject to special requirements and responsibilities. Overheight may not be caused by items loaded in multiples (stacked or overlapped).
The motor carrier and driver:
- Are responsible and liable for any and all injury to persons or damage to property and all damage to or destruction of any highway or any highway structure resulting from the oversize or overweight movement.
- Are responsible for determining adequate clearance, both vertical and horizontal, for movement under this permit.
- Must notify the Over-Dimension Permit Unit within 24 hours of an accident involving striking a structure in the course of a movement.
Overwidth Load – Motor Carriers moving loads that exceed 8 feet 6 inches in width are required to obtain an Over-Dimension Permit and are subject to special requirements and responsibilities.
Travel restrictions and exceptions are described on Permit Attachment H and apply to all overwidth moves authorized by either an annual or single trip permit that also requires Permit Attachments 70A, 75A or 82A.
Overwidth Permit Attachments
Attachment 70A — Continuous Operation Variance Permit, General Provisions.
Attachment 75A — Mobile Home/Modular Unit Provisions.
Attachment 82A — Non-Divisible Loads.
Special Transportation Permit Attachment H — Specific Hauling Hours and Days for Overwidth Movement.
Oregon Administrative Rules
OAR Division 70 — Vehicle Weight and Dimension Limits.
OAR Division 82 — Variance Permits Issued for Non-Divisible Loads.
OAR Division 75 — Movement of Over-Dimension Mobile Homes and Modular Building.
Superload – This is a load or combination of load and hauling equipment that exceeds one or more of the following dimensions:
- Over 16 feet wide on the Interstate.
- Over 14 feet wide on any state two-lane highway. This does not include mobiles with a 14 foot box or less and up to a 12 inch eave.
- Over 17 feet high on any highway.
- Mobile with a box width over 14 feet wide and/or overall width greater than 15 feet.
- Overall length greater than 150 feet.
Overweight Superloads
Weight can be a factor in the permitting process depending on the size of the load. Please use the weight tables below to determine your legal and permittable weights.
Load Review
Loads that meet the minimum axle requirements for Permit Weight Table 5 and exceed the allowances on all the weight tables may request that the load be reviewed by a Bridge Engineer.
- Requests sent to the bridge engineers may take up to 5 business days.
- Not all of the requests are approved.
- All requests are route, axle weight and axle spacing specific.
- Any changes made to an approved engineer review will have to be re-submitted.
Weight Tables
Oregon uses weight tables to determine legal and permittable weights.
Motor carriers can also use our Online Weight Calculator.
Weight Table 1 — Legal Weight, No Permit Required
Use for trucks with legal axle weights hauling divisible loads.

Weight Table 5 — Heavy Haul Weight, Permit Required
Use for specific vehicle configurations only. Weight Table 5 and its formulas for increased weights is more complex than the other tables and requires special analysis by the Over-Dimension Permit Unit.

Specific Analysis and Routing For an Oregon Equipment Transport
In special circumstances, ODOT’s Bridge Unit may authorize additional weight for moving a large non-reducible load. A single trip permit may be issued for combinations of vehicles having minimum equipment consisting of a steering axle followed by four or more consecutive tandem axles, provided the weight does not exceed:
- 600 pounds per inch of tire width.
- 24,000 pounds per single axle.
- 48,000 pounds per tandem axle.
- The weight shown on the permit.
- The sum of the permittable axle, tandem axle, or group axle weight, whichever is less.
