Hi
I see flatbed tri axle trailers in Ma delivering lumber and wonder why. we can't get overweight permits for reducible loads and was curious as to why the 3rd axle.
thanks

They can permit in mass. Idk the weight offhand. Sherwood? Green T800s?
KenworthGuyNH Thanks this. -
NH and VT you can register for extra weight and be certified for 99k on 6 axles. Pretty sure Mass. is the same. This is totally separate from the OW permit system; and the loads can be bulk, divisible, whatever.

thanks
my friends at mass dot will not give me permit for 99,000 on reducible loads (pallets of stone).KenworthGuyNH Thanks this. -
On 6 axles?? You can't register for and be certified to carry 99k???
-
They definitely will, and it's free. The first link below shows that you can get one, the second, under "Special Hauling Permit", shows that there should be no fee, amazingly.

I can get permit for my live floor. I cannot get one for flatbed because they tell me to take a skid or 2 off to keep it at or under 80.000. they remind me that it is a reducible load. -
Um.....Isn't whatever you're hauling in your walking floor reducible as well? Or does it all pump out as one solid block?? LOL

Got a shovel? No permit for you! (Sgt. Shultz voice)

Maybe it is on a forest products permit. In Wisconsin you could haul 80,000 in the spring, 90,000 in the summer, and 98,000 in the winter.
