Questions about shipping in Joplin, MO
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Joplin?
In Missouri they come from the Missouri Department of Transportation, Motor Carrier Services (MoDOT), 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 Joplin?
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 Missouri?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Joplin, the closest neighbor is Arkansas: Bentonville is about 50 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Arkansas Department of Transportation (ARDOT). Oklahoma is next, through the Oklahoma Department of Transportation, Size and Weight Permits (ODOT).
