One state’s recent announcement of steep price increases for oversize and overweight permits appears to have come with little notice, although truckers with oversize and overweight loads have begun making their voices heard.

David Gorrell noticed a letter from the Ohio Department of Transportation in his mailbox on Oct. 16.
Gorrell, an OOIDA member from Londonderry, OH, hauls 60-foot-long steel beams on his 53-foot step deck trailer. The letter announced that beginning on Oct. 16 – that same day –he would face multiple different price increases for oversize permits.

Gorrell learned that Ohio no longer issues 365-day permits and that single-trip permit fees for oversize or overweight loads are rising from $15 to $86 immediately, then to $143 by March 2009, and $200 by July 2009. The 90-day permit fee jumped from $20 to $306 on Oct. 16, and will rise to $528 in March and $750 in July, which will be 36 times the previous cost.
