Questions about shipping in Lewiston, ID
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Lewiston?
In Idaho they come from the Idaho Transportation Department, Commercial Vehicle Services (ITD), 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 Lewiston?
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 Idaho?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Lewiston, the closest neighbor is Washington: Spokane is about 90 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Washington State Department of Transportation, Commercial Vehicle Services (WSDOT). Oregon is next, through the Oregon Department of Transportation, Commerce and Compliance Division (ODOT).
