Moving machinery in and out of Billings
Billings is Montana's largest city, where I-90 and I-94 meet, and a regional hub for trucking and rail in the eastern half of the state. Machines leave Billings on I-90, I-94, US-87 and US-212, and a load taller than 14 ft needs a MDT permit for the exact route.

Questions about shipping in Billings, MT
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Billings?
In Montana they come from the Montana Department of Transportation, Motor Carrier Services (MDT), 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 Billings?
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 Montana?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Billings, the closest neighbor is Wyoming: Gillette is about 180 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Wyoming Highway Patrol, Commercial Carrier and Ports of Entry (Wyoming Department of Transportation) (WHP). Idaho is next, through the Idaho Transportation Department, Commercial Vehicle Services (ITD).
