Dallas TX to Kent WA routing help.

OR and WA are both mandatory carry states for chains, if you get inspected and don’t have the proper number of chains or none at all then they can put you out of service.

Theres some information about restrictions and requirements by state.

 

How long is your trailer?

 

Okay, if you'd been shorter I know of a couple of good time saving short cuts but a 53 would make you too long.

 

Main thing is to avoid wyoming.
Is always a disaster there in winter time.

 

Some of you all are confusing utah with colorado.

 

Are you a company driver? If not don’t forget to get a temporary pass for Oregon. Personally I’d probably just run 25 to 90..too many slow trucks on 80 for me.
Chains are needed until April 1st at least in Washington. Most truck stops have them and you’ll need 4? Sets for WA.

Your chances of needing them now are slim to none.

 

Colorado requires chains to be carried sept 01- may31 as well..
