Questions about shipping in Port Huron, MI

Who handles permits for a machine leaving Port Huron?

In Michigan they come from the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT), 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 Port Huron?

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 Michigan?

Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Port Huron, the closest neighbor is Ohio: Toledo is about 110 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Ohio Department of Transportation, Special Hauling Permits (ODOT). Indiana is next, through the Indiana Department of Revenue, Motor Carrier Services (Indiana DOR).
