I must be confused. You mentioned WA scales. Are you trying to permit for WA, too?

for containerized cargo here in FL ive ran with one good for 95000 anything more then that was a fine we ran lots of grapefruit reefers with top mounted gensets heavy ### crap on the front.
losttrucker Thanks this. -
gotta love loads out in the sticks through the mountains. -
In Spokane, heading where? What is it and where'd you load it. Just trying to get details so I can maybe offer some help. Being from the area and having moved a lot of OS/OW through here, I might be able to give some advice, if you want it.

spokane. load goes to denver. looks like i have to go through idaho, utah, wyoming. colorado won't sell for the highway. told me to stay on rural roads. so i've got a good excuse to go around the scale down there.
montana is the only stickler on reduceable loads. wyoming doeosn't know why.
and the load is lumber. 700 lbs. 1/4 tank fuel.Last edited: Aug 15, 2012

Well, you don't have to worry about WA, obviously. The quickest way to Denver is 90 - 25, but that's out because of MT. You might run 95 down to I84 and across, dropping down I15 to US30 into WY and onto I80, then down US287 into CO. Not sure what ID will say about a divisible load being heavy, but there are ways around, although I don't know the way around Inkom.
I've always hated lumber loads for just that reason. The mills will do their best to get every stick on the truck, legal or not, if they can get away with it. -
idaho and wyoming said they would permit. so i'm going down 195 into lewiston.
we're permited for utah
colorado told me to go aoraund the scale. cuz it's not allowed on the highway. up to 85 on the rural roads. seems kinda stupid to me. but i'm not gonna argue. it's free and legal.
don't know why montana won't though. cuz i hauld oversized rebar weighing 82 last year
