Rules of the road

What shapes a move in Colorado

  • When oversize loads can travel

    Colorado bars oversize loads from listed Denver-area freeway and arterial segments from 6 to 9 a.m. and 3 to 6 p.m. on weekdays, from travel between 6 a.m. and 9 p.m. on Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day, and, for loads wider than 14 feet, from moving in darkness unless a special permit allows it.

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

Questions about shipping in Aurora, CO

Who handles permits for a machine leaving Aurora?

In Colorado they come from the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT), 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 Aurora?

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 Colorado?

Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Aurora, the closest neighbor is Wyoming: Cheyenne is about 95 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Wyoming Highway Patrol, Commercial Carrier and Ports of Entry (Wyoming Department of Transportation) (WHP). Nebraska is next, through the Nebraska Department of Transportation, Permits Office (NDOT).
