    Wife went on a one day trip with me before Turkey day. Saw this going down Ohio toll road. To be fair, I’ve never pulled these but that lean looks sketchy to me

    Potential hall of shame. Went in to get paperwork from office, they asked if they could start loading. 144 empty new crates 3 wide 3 high 16 rows starting at rear what could go wrong? 20 minutes later I come out of office and saw this
    106” wide at bottom

    Can you not run 9' wide there?
    I'm typically 9'6 wide, but depending on what I do on a given day, am 8'6 to 10'6.
    You may even need a quick permit, but 9.5 wide should be easy.
     
    D.Tibbitt and jamespmack Thank this.

    Freight must be 102" or less in width without os/ow permits. States will not issue permits if the load is divisible.

    BC has relaxed rules for forestry/raw/first cut loads that the rest of North America does not recognize.
    We used to load veneer to 10 ft wide and the annual permit was $15 while a construction machine needed a permit at 8ft 8inches and they were single use timed permits at $20 each or a quarterly at $60.
