Cattle haulers and Pre Pass

If you don’t have the permit for your trailer you don’t get to leave the scale.

 

You have to have the original permit in your possession for a trailer over 48’ that doesn’t meet their kpra regulation. So going through a permit service wouldn’t really help because an email or fax copy of the permit still wouldn’t get you out of the scale.

 

So out of curiosity, at that point what are your choices?

 

Not real sure. In 2015 I ordered my permit and ended up having to go load a couple days early so I left without it. Sure as heck I got called into the EB scale at Sneads going down empty. I knew it was going to be waiting for me at Holopaw because I had my brother overnight it down there. The guy at the scale looked it up and saw where I had ordered and paid for it, so he let me go after I told him that it was overnighted down there to the cafe.

 

But what if you were at a scale that did not offer them? If they will not let you leave without a permit, then what are your options to get one? I have mine, but it just made me curious what would happen
