Here’s an in-depth look at how Logi Transports is revolutionizing the logistics of moving heavy equipment across this vast state.
The Backbone of Industry: Heavy Equipment Transport
Oklahoma’s economy is significantly driven by sectors like agriculture, construction, and energy, all of which rely heavily on specialized machinery. Logi Transports, with its fleet of specialized trailers including RGNs, Step Decks, and Gooseneck trailers, has become synonymous with reliability and efficiency in moving these giants of industry.

The Logi Transports Advantage
- Customized Transport Solutions: Whether it’s a single piece of equipment or an entire fleet, Logi Transports designs transport plans that minimize downtime and maximize efficiency.

- Innovation in Transport: Logi Transports leverages technology for route planning, load optimization, and real-time tracking, ensuring that every piece of equipment arrives at its destination in the condition it left, if not better, thanks to their meticulous handling.
Community and Environmental Responsibility
Beyond business, Logi Transports engages with the community by participating in local events and supporting initiatives that promote safety on the roads. Their approach to environmental responsibility includes optimizing routes to reduce fuel consumption and emissions, aligning with the broader goals of sustainability in logistics.

Oklahoma Oversize Permits
OKLAHOMA OVERSIZE PERMITS INFORMATION
PERMITS: Oklahoma oversize permits are valid for three days. Must have permit prior to entering the state.
OPERATING TIME: One-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset seven days a week. Overweight only can have continuous travel, but must be requested when ordering permit.
RESTRICTED TRAVEL: Oversize load movements are not allowed on the Interstate system through Cleveland, Oklahoma and Tulsa counties between 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. – 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday (does not apply to O/W only). No permit travel allowed on major holidays.
OKLAHOMA TURNPIKES: Loads up to 9’6″ wide are permitted without requiring a Pike Pass. Loads over 9’6″ wide up to 11’6″ wide (and up to 13’6″ wide on Cherokee Turnpike only) need a Pike Pass reference number for permitting. Maximum weight for the turnpikes is 108,000 pounds. Weight is paid for on the state permit; the turnpike does not charge extra above the usual per axle charge.
LEGAL DIMENSIONS
Length:
- 59’6″ semitrailer and load is legal on Oklahoma’s “U.S. Defense Highway System” which includes all Interstate routes and many of the main U.S. Highways
- 53′ semitrailer and load on other routes
Width: 8’6″ (8′ on any highway having a surface width of less than 20 feet)
Height: 13’6″
Weight:
- 80,000 Gross on Interstate
- 90,000 on non-Interstate routes (with legal tandem and tridem weights)
- Single – 20,000
- Tandem – 34,000
- Tridem – 42,000
ROUTINE PERMIT LIMITS
Length: No set maximum
Width: 16′
Height: Depends on routes
Weight:

- Quad – 65,000
- Steer Axle – 15,000 (With minimum spacing of 15′ steer to first drive axle). Requests for more than 15,000 pounds on steer axle have to go to bridge engineering for approval, taking an extra day or two.
For an overweight permit, your registration must be prorated for 90,000 for Oklahoma, or for at least the amount of gross weight you need permitted if less than 90,000 pounds. According to the Oklahoma Permit Manual, an approved scale weight ticket or a certification of gross weight from the shipper should be attached to an overweight permit.

They are also required on two-lane highways when the load exceeds 59-1/2 feet in length. Flags are required at the widest point of any oversize load. Rear overhang of 4 feet or more must be flagged.
