Weight and size limits are imposed on commercial vehicles on virtually all of the nation’s roads and highways. Any load that exceeds the limit is referred to as an oversized or overweight load. There are also restrictions on the weight per axle. If a load is under the maximum gross weight for the vehicle but over the maximum for a particular axle it is still considered overweight.
In Florida, oversize load regulations are in place as well as in most other states. Permits are required for all trucks transporting oversize or overweight loads. These permits are sold on a state by state basis. Any oversize load being transported interstate require a separate permit for each state. The are no federal permits for oversize loads.
