Any of you guys know what the Deal is with the Idaho Oversize Permit for 53ft Trailers?

I was under the impression it was needed/required, but FM seems clueless.

 

never heard of that.i'e ran idaho for years and never was even asked about such a permit.sounds like someone is having fun with u

 

I had one when I worked for Swift.

Not sure what the other than national network means.

 

Swift has some trailers that are 58ft do they not? Perhaps that is why you had that permit.

 

If you're coming south out of Courd de alene in Oregon you have to get a permit I ran into that a few times but they give oyu leeway on your weight if you have to snug up to make the limits

 

if u are on an interstate u dont need an oversize permit on any 53' trlr in any state.if u are on a secondary road u may need an oversize permit for that area u are running in.that is so dot can monitor truck trafic on those roads.

 

That's the plan but called and found out they screwed this one up. Wrong pick up number. Wrong point in time don't deliver till Monday morning at 12 o'clock. And I found out there's a second drop at 6am Monday morning in Sioux City Iowa it's amazing what you will find out this verifying an appointment time.

 

O and they screwed me around on swapping out trucks too
