Questions about shipping in Santa Fe, NM

Who handles permits for a machine leaving Santa Fe?

In New Mexico they come from the New Mexico Department of Transportation (NMDOT), 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 Santa Fe?

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 New Mexico?

Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Santa Fe, the closest neighbor is Colorado: Pueblo is about 190 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). Texas is next, through the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, Motor Carrier Division (TxDMV).
