Moving machinery in and out of Racine
Racine is a Lake Michigan port city on WI-32 and WI-20 just east of I-94, with manufacturing and food-processing freight bound for Milwaukee and Chicago. Machines leave Racine on I-94, WI-20, WI-32 and WI-11, and a load taller than 13 ft 6 in needs a WisDOT permit for the exact route.

What shapes a move in Wisconsin
- When oversize loads can travel

Questions about shipping in Racine, WI
Who handles permits for a machine leaving Racine?
In Wisconsin they come from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, Motor Carrier Services (WisDOT), 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 Racine?
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 Wisconsin?
Each state on the route issues its own permit. From Racine, the closest neighbor is Illinois: Chicago is about 60 miles away, and that leg's permit comes from the Illinois Department of Transportation, Oversize/Overweight Permit Office (IDOT). Michigan is next, through the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT).
