The bucket width pushed this load into oversize territory, requiring permits across four states — Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and Michigan. Each state carries its own permitting timeline and dimensional thresholds, and the client had a hard delivery deadline tied to a construction project start date.
Freedom Heavy Haul secured all four state permits within 48 hours, routed the load to avoid known low-clearance structures, and delivered the Volvo L150F on time and undamaged. The client’s jobsite crew was able to begin operations the following morning as scheduled.
A Volvo L150F is typically transported on an RGN (Removable Gooseneck) trailer. At 52,062 lbs operating weight and a bucket width over 10 feet, this machine requires oversize permits in every state it crosses. The bucket must be positioned and secured carefully to manage overall height for bridge clearances.
A haul from Florida to Michigan crosses up to four states — Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, and Michigan — each requiring its own oversize/overweight permit. Permit processing times and dimensional thresholds differ by state, so coordinating them in sequence is critical to avoid transit gaps.
With an experienced carrier, a four-state permit package can typically be secured within 24-48 hours. The timeline depends on each state processing speed and whether the load dimensions trigger any special routing or escort requirements.
