Moving machinery in and out of Fargo

Fargo is North Dakota's largest city and sits where I-29 and I-94 cross, making it a regional distribution point for the Red River Valley. Machines leave Fargo on I-29 and I-94, and a load taller than 14 ft needs a NDHP permit for the exact route.

Rules of the road

What shapes a move in North Dakota

  • When oversize loads can travel

    North Dakota single-trip permits do not authorize overdimensional moves at night unless the load is 12 feet wide or less and 120 feet long or less (or the Highway Patrol approves), and loads wider than 16 feet cannot move after noon Saturday, on Sunday or on six major holidays. Source ↗

Rules change. The specialist on your move checks the current ones for your exact route before anything is booked.

Questions about shipping in Fargo, ND

Who handles permits for a machine leaving Fargo?

In North Dakota they come from the North Dakota Highway Patrol, Motor Carrier Division (NDHP), 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 Fargo?

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 North Dakota?

Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Fargo, the closest neighbor is Minnesota: Moorhead is about 5 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT). South Dakota is next, through the South Dakota Highway Patrol, Motor Carrier Services (SDHP).
