02 / FEES
Check size and weight together.
A combined move has its own base fee.
ODOT lists separate single-trip fees for oversize, overweight, and combined oversize/overweight movements. The overweight paths add a charge for each 1,000 lb above the legal load limit. Use truck-and-trailer gross weight, not cargo weight, and check the axle arrangement when establishing that limit.
Special movement is a separate product.
Newly manufactured items more than 16′ and up to 23′ wide have a separate special-movement fee; the fee sheet excludes houses and manufactured homes from that category. Do not apply the ordinary single-trip example below to those products. Fax/email delivery and card-payment charges are also listed separately.

03 / TRAVEL
Leave room for the metro curfew.
An arrival time can change the day's plan.
ODOT's current guidance restricts oversize Interstate movement in Cleveland, Oklahoma and Tulsa counties on weekdays from 7–9 a.m. and 3:30–6:30 p.m. Central Time. Its general travel guidance distinguishes daylight oversize movement from continuous overweight-only travel. Confirm the permit's window before committing an appointment.
Check restrictions for the actual roads.
The permit office links current restrictions, bridge information and municipal/county contacts. Check those against the approach to the plant, auction yard or jobsite. An estimated Interstate itinerary alone does not establish permission or access for the roads at either end.
04 / HEIGHT
Tall loads need the utility contacts ready.
Start coordination at 15′9″ loaded height.
ODOT identifies its utility and railroad contact form for loads 15′9″ or higher. Measure from pavement to the highest point after loading, including the deck and supports. The authority also provides an Oklahoma Highway Patrol escort contract for applications requiring police accompaniment.
One town may involve several utility owners.
The CLUR form asks the carrier to identify utility providers and contacts, keep the railroad information with the truck, and sign the declaration. Account for every municipality and utility on the proposed route. A pilot-car allowance in a quote does not replace that coordination.
BEFORE DISPATCH
Match the paperwork to the move.
- Confirm loaded size, gross weight, axles and the selected permit product.
- Check whether the planned Interstate timing passes through a restricted metro window.
- For a tall load, assemble the utility and railroad contacts before requesting the movement.
The issued permit controls the authorized vehicle, load, route and travel conditions. Check current closures and the pickup and delivery approaches. A planning estimate does not approve clearance or replace the permit.
