Questions about shipping in Fort Collins, CO
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Fort Collins?
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 Fort Collins?
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 Fort Collins, the closest neighbor is Wyoming: Cheyenne is about 40 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).
