Questions about shipping in New Jersey
Do you pick up and deliver anywhere in New Jersey?
Yes. Pickups and deliveries anywhere in New Jersey, including Elizabeth, Jersey City, Newark and Camden, are coordinated with carriers already running those lanes. Rural addresses work too: the carrier confirms access and timing with you before arrival.
Who issues oversize permits in New Jersey?
The New Jersey Department of Transportation (NJDOT). A load over the legal limits (13 ft 6 in (4.11 m) tall, 8 ft 6 in (2.59 m) wide) needs its permit for the exact route, and it is arranged before pickup so the machine does not wait at the yard.
How long do I have to register a car after moving to New Jersey?
A vehicle moved to New Jersey must be registered at a Motor Vehicle Commission agency by appointment, with a New Jersey insurance card and an application for a certificate of ownership, plus a pencil tracing or photo of the VIN when the previous state issues no titles. Confirm the details for your case with the state's motor vehicle office before the car arrives.
What slows trucking in New Jersey during the year?
Winter and storm conditions: an oversize permit is not valid when daytime visibility drops below 500 ft or hazardous road conditions exist.
Can a load from New Jersey go to Mexico?
Yes. Loads from New Jersey travel to a Texas crossing such as Laredo or Pharr, where the transfer and the customs paperwork are coordinated with brokers on both sides.
