Questions about shipping in Lowell, MA
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Lowell?
In Massachusetts they come from the Massachusetts Department of Transportation, Highway Division (MassDOT), 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 Lowell?
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 Massachusetts?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Lowell, the closest neighbor is New Hampshire: Nashua is about 10 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the New Hampshire Department of Transportation, Bureau of Highway Maintenance (NHDOT). Rhode Island is next, through the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT).
