ODPERMIT / STATE FIELD GUIDE ID

IdahoOversize & overweight permits.

Idaho's permit products depend on the rig, axle loading and roads used. Check route designations, pilot-car duties and the load's permit fee in one place.

01

Legal size & loaded measurements

Loaded dimensions

Idaho legal baselines are 8 feet 6 inches width and 14 feet height; single, trailer, national-network, overhang and route-color length rules differ by configuration.

Axles, weight & bridges

Use tire width/rating, axle and group spacing, gross weight, registration, route capacity and bridge records; GVW alone is not an Idaho answer.

02

Permits, routes & larger loads

Roads & authorities

ITD permits cover completed state-highway sections named on the permit. County and city roads need express local authority, and route GIS/bridge capacity must be checked for every segment.

When a permit is needed

Overlegal size or non-reducible overweight needs the applicable ITD permit before movement; oversize-only, overweight, extra-length, self-propelled, farm, disabled and emergency products differ.

Larger-load review

Annual bands reach 16 feet wide, 15 feet 6 inches high and 110 feet long on black/interstate routes, with lower red-route limits. Extreme width, height, weight or length requires specialist review.

03

State permit fees

Single-trip agency fee example

$30 for this Idaho planning example: a nondivisible load measuring 8′7″ wide, 13′ high and 70′ overall, at 72,000 lb gross on a five-axle rig with a 48′ trailer. The example uses 100 in-state miles. Change the load details in the calculator for your move.

What the agency estimate includes

The calculator applies Idaho's maintained single-trip permit schedule to the loaded vehicle and the supplied fee inputs. It itemizes the supported state charges, including weight or distance charges where applicable. Annual permits, special products, local permissions and payment-method charges need their own applicable schedule.

About the example equipment

The samples use ODPermit’s editable 48 ft flatbed · 5 axles planning profile. Loaded dimensions, gross weight, 100 state miles and Texas registration are example inputs, not a capacity rating or a route approval. Replace them with your actual setup.

Great Dane Freedom trailer specifications48 ft platform; the illustrated 40 in drop deck and 20 in drop support a 60 in upper-deck planning height. Combined tare and tractor geometry are editable ODPermit assumptions.

Pilot cars, height poles & surveys

14′6″-wide load example

Example: 14′6″ wide × 13′ high, 75′ overall, 72,000 lb gross, zero overhang or rear projection, ordinary nondivisible freight in daylight. Depending on the road or permit conditions: Red-coded routes: no pilot car from the mapped dimensional triggers. Black-coded routes: 1 front and 1 rear pilot cars. White-coded Interstate routes: no pilot car from the mapped dimensional triggers. Depending on the road or permit conditions: Above 12 ft 6 in wide, the red-route width table ends. ITD must assign the red-route crew; the black and Interstate width bands shown continue through 18 ft. Depending on the road or permit conditions: A lead escort may be needed where the load cannot remain in its lane. A rear escort is required when the load blocks the driver's 200-ft rear view. An advance third car may be assigned to hold opposing traffic; these are route and visibility conditions, not automatic extra cars.

17′6″-high load example

Example: 9′ wide × 17′6″ high, 75′ overall, 72,000 lb gross, zero overhang or rear projection, ordinary nondivisible freight in daylight. Red-coded routes: 1 front (height pole required) pilot car. Black-coded routes: 1 front (height pole required) pilot car. White-coded Interstate routes: 1 front (height pole required) pilot car. Additional approval applies above 16 ft wide on red/black routes, above 18 ft wide on Interstates, above 16 ft high on any route, above 120 ft long off Interstates, or above 150 ft long on Interstates. The permit can add escorts. Depending on the road or permit conditions: A lead escort may be needed where the load cannot remain in its lane. A rear escort is required when the load blocks the driver's 200-ft rear view. An advance third car may be assigned to hold opposing traffic; these are route and visibility conditions, not automatic extra cars.

05

Travel hours & road restrictions

Travel hours

Black/interstate routes can allow 24/7 only within their geometry envelope; red routes and larger moves use daylight or permit-specific windows.

Current route restrictions

Check holidays, weekends, spring breakup, ice/snow/frost, visibility, 511/posted restrictions, Forest Service US-12 controls, construction and live ITD route/weight records.

06

Signs, flags & safety equipment

Safety equipment

Use 18-inch flags, required OVERSIZE LOAD signs, amber lights, radio, STOP/SLOW paddles, triangles, vest, fire extinguisher, securement, inspection and any permit condition.

07

What the driver needs

Carry the permit

Carry the issued permit and all current route, weight, vertical-clearance, pilot, inspection and local-authority attachments; permit noncompliance can invalidate the move.

Prepare the driver packet

The packet must match the permitted vehicle/load, route color, dates, dimensions, axle diagram, weight table, vertical-clearance map, pilots, inspection and local approvals.

08

Special equipment & permit programs

Special permit programs

Manufactured homes, farm implements, self-propelled equipment, extra-length/129,000-pound routes, disabled vehicles, emergency movements and Forest Service corridors have scoped rules.
