Moving machinery in and out of Fresno

Fresno sits on Highway 99 in the San Joaquin Valley, the center of California's Central Valley farm production, with heavy truck traffic hauling produce and farm equipment. Machines leave Fresno on CA-99, CA-41, CA-180 and CA-168, and a load taller than 14 ft needs a Caltrans permit for the exact route.

Rules of the road

What shapes a move in California

  • When oversize loads can travel

    Caltrans bars permit loads wider than 10 feet from weekday peak-hour curfew windows in the Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco and Sacramento areas, and loads that need a pilot car are barred from travel during set afternoon and evening hours around seven holidays, including Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day.

Rules change. The specialist on your move checks the current ones for your exact route before anything is booked.

Questions about shipping in Fresno, CA

Who handles permits for a machine leaving Fresno?

In California they come from the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans), 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 Fresno?

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 California?

Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Fresno, the closest neighbor is Nevada: Carson City is about 170 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Nevada Department of Transportation, Over Dimensional Vehicle Permits (NDOT). Arizona is next, through the Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT).
