Questions about shipping in Montgomery, AL
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Montgomery?
In Alabama they come from the Alabama Department of Transportation (ALDOT), and if the route crosses other states each one issues its own. They are arranged before pickup, for the exact route.
Can you pick up at a jobsite in Montgomery?
Yes. Tell us whether there is a ramp, a forklift or a crane for loading and what the access is like; the carrier confirms it with you before arrival.
What if the machine leaves Alabama?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Montgomery, the closest neighbor is Georgia: Columbus is about 75 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Georgia Department of Public Safety, Oversize Permit Unit (Georgia DPS). Mississippi is next, through the Mississippi Department of Transportation, Permit & Motor Carrier Division (MDOT).
