Vehicles and trucks that are hauling loads of excessive size or weight over legal limits and are busy in operating transportation activities on public highways are obligated to obtain oversize permits when their loads that can not be decreased in size. These permits can be obtained upon written request from the Commercial Transport section of Commercial Vehicle Safety and Enforcement Branch. Oversize permits are provided not only for the vehicles or loads that are 4.4 meters wide, but for wider vehicles also.

Oversize permits are also provided on the basis of axle size of the automobile, as there are certain limits on the load-per-axle to assess the need of the transportation permit. A load that goes over the limit per-axle is considered as over-weighted or oversized, rather than considering the overall weight of the load. Suppose your commercial vehicle transports construction machinery, pre-built homes, construction materials, or containers. It’s weight restrictions are then depended weight limits per-axle to become eligible for this permit.
