Know Before You Go: Michigan Oversize Load Regulations
Holding valid Michigan Oversize Permits means adhering to strict regulations, and A Permits makes sure you’re fully informed before your trip begins.
Permitted travel hours are sunrise to sunset. If your load is under 10′ wide, 14′ high, and 90′ long, weekend travel is allowed until 3:00 PM on both Saturday and Sunday.
If your shipment is overweight only with legal dimensions (and under 70′ in length), continuous travel is permitted, including nights. However, restricted travel applies for loads over 12′ wide or 90′ long during peak hours (7–9 AM and 3–6 PM) in counties such as Wayne, Oakland, Kent, and Macomb.
We monitor Michigan oversize load regulations to make sure your travel is legal and optimized.
Bridge Protocols and Escort Rules in Michigan
When transporting with Michigan Oversize Permits, knowing your bridge requirements is key. For example:
Mackinaw Bridge: Contact the authority (906-643-7600) 24 hours prior if your load exceeds legal weight or is over 10′ wide.
Ambassador Bridge (Detroit–Windsor): Charges apply ($50+), and crossing is restricted to 10 AM–4 PM weekdays.
You may also need escorts:
Over 90′ long 1 escort
Over 100′ long 2 escorts
Over 14′ wide 2 escorts
Over 15′ high 2 escorts + approved route survey
We review your dimensions against Michigan oversize and overweight permits requirements to ensure you're set up properly.

Michigan Oversize Permits Cost and Compliance
The Michigan oversize and overweight trucking permits cost varies depending on your load size, route, and type of permit. For example, the Michigan wide load permit cost may increase if escort vehicles, special routing, or bridge crossings are involved.
Our transparent pricing eliminates guesswork and ensures compliance with Michigan oversize load construction restrictions, which can affect routing and timing.
Michigan Seasonal Load Rules and Restrictions
Michigan enforces seasonal load restrictions from February to April, during which time Michigan overweight permits are not issued. Axle weight limits may drop by as much as 35%. During this period, approved routing is critical, and we’re here to help you navigate those changes.
