Before the move
How we plan a Georgia load
Every Georgia move starts with a GDOT single trip permit, or a superload permit for the biggest loads. Our permitting team checks the size, weight and route against GDOT's rules, then sets the escorts, height sensor and travel windows the permit calls for.
Georgia permit loads run in daylight, and loads stay out of the area inside I 285 unless they pick up or deliver there.
Loads over 180,000 lbs need a bridge analysis that can take weeks, so we file early.
