WYOMING ELECTRONIC REQUEST TO MOVE AN OVERSIZE …



Revised 10/11

COVER SHEET FOR WYOMING ELECTRONIC REQUEST TO MOVE AN OVERSIZE AND/OR OVERWEIGHT SUPER LOAD

This program has been developed to assist carriers in obtaining a SUPER LOAD authorization through the Office of Overweight Loads (OWL).

Before sending a request be sure you understand the following information:

• Be sure to research your requested route to ensure the move is not affected by any restrictions or structures before submitting the request. Vertical clearances and width and weight restrictions may be found on the Wyoming Department of transportation web site:

• The move must be in compliance with all Wyoming Statutes and Regulations governing oversize/weight movements. This information can be found on the Wyoming Highway Patrol web site

• The information must be true and accurate; if it is found to be incorrect by a permit issuer the driver may be issued a citation for the violation and a new authorization will need to be obtained. When the authorization is issued, it will only be valid for the specific information requested on the Super Load Request.doc form.

• Be specific, where a load starts or ends in Wyoming. Give a crossroad or milepost as to where you will be getting on or off the state highway system. Also, when you will be using city or county roads as part of your route, be sure to indicate them on your request.

• If the load is delayed, cancelled or you need to make any corrections on a request, contact the OWL ASAP by email.

• Loads over 18’ wide or high must be approved 24 hours prior to move. Loads over 18’ wide will be restricted during school bus and mining hours. The approximate time the movement will start for these loads must be within 30 minute.

• To help us determine a route for loads that are over 16’ high, you will need to indicate if a load can be lowered and by how much to clear a structure. This should be noted on the form in the, comment/remarks/added restrictions area.

• Loads that require a bridge analysis will require additional forms from OWL that need to be completed and returned. These forms may be found on the Super loads/Overweight Loads Office web page. The bridge analysis may not be performed until OWL has received the completed forms.

HOW TO SUBMIT YOUR REQUEST: You must have Microsoft Word 97 or later to use the request form and have an email account. Your request may be sent at anytime and we will process them as soon as possible Monday - Friday, excluding holidays. Requests sent in after 4:00pm will usually be handled the next business day.

• Download the Super Load Request.doc form from the Super loads/Overweight Loads Office web page. Fully complete the form.

• Send an email to owl@ with the fully completed form attached. The subject line on your e-mail should show: Company name and the power units plate number.

The vehicle may NOT move on Wyoming highways until OWL sends you an authorization number.
