Im pulling a 10'2 wide into the Bronx over the GWB. Never taken an o.d. load into the city. What are the hour restrictions? Bridge toll higher? Any info would be helpful.

It will be on your NYC permit what time you can cross. It takes 2 business days to get it. If your over 65' long, you'll need an escort as well. You'll need to buy a permit to get back out unless you can shrink to under 55' at the same time.
Pound Puppy Thanks this. -
Thank you, Ill have my permit tomorrow (i hope).

Your braver than I am taking an os into the bronx puppy.
Pound Puppy Thanks this. -
i belive they stage up the od loads before the bridge and escort em in somtime after midnite .
Pound Puppy Thanks this. -
after a little more thought and forgive me if im wrong they stage the od loads in bound from nj over on the south side before the cash box where route 46 comes into the gwb ...nypd or ny state police or port authority cops will escort you over the bridge ..not sure about youre journey into the bronx but id bet nypd will handle it from the cross bronx on in .
Pound Puppy Thanks this. -
was told that I will have an escort all the way to my destination. I screwed up though, I didnt realize I couldnt move in to nyc until night between 2300-0600. Waiting for a call to find out where the staging area is.

For what they paid me to bring it from K.C. it was worth a little extra headache. Is only a railroad signal shelter, maybe 6,000lbs. A lot of outbound freight within 175 miles with decent rates. -
keep us posted on how it works out , sounds like fun to me !
