How freight moves in Oklahoma
Freight in Oklahoma runs on I-35, I-40, I-44, I-240 and I-244. Ocean and river cargo moves through Tulsa Port of Catoosa and Port of Muskogee. The state's economy leans on oil and gas production and oilfield services, aerospace and defense, including aircraft maintenance and military installations, agriculture, including wheat, cattle, poultry and cotton and wind energy, and that is most of what moves on its roads.
Rules of the road
What shapes a move in Oklahoma
- Seasonal conditions
Oklahoma permit rules call for oversize movement to stop when snow, ice, sleet, fog, rain, dust, smoke or excessive wind make travel dangerous, and the state may restrict or prohibit operations in unsafe conditions.
The spring severe-weather season, roughly April to June, brings tornadoes, hail and strong crosswinds on the plains along I-35, I-40 and I-44.
Winter ice storms can make I-35, I-40 and I-44 hazardous for trucks.
Rules change. The specialist on your move checks the current ones for your exact route before anything is booked.
