OSOW Permit Surcharge, effective July 1, 2009

Single Trip and Special Transport Permits that are issued on July 1, 2009 or later will be assessed a surcharge equal to the amount of the permit fee pursuant to the passage of Senate Bill 09-108.
This means an oversize only Single Trip permit will increase from $15 to $30. Specials will increase from $125 to $250. Single Trip permits issued for size and weight or weight only will increase from $15 + $5/axle to $30 + $10/axle.

Important Reminder:

The Permit Office has a 2-hour turn around time for the issuance of Single Trip permits. We will not guarantee that applications received after 3:00 p.m. (MT) will be processed on the same business day. Applications are processed in the order in which they are received.
The turn around time for the issuance of Chapter 6 Specials (Superloads) is 3-5 business days.

Our busiest days of the week are typically Mondays and Fridays. We recommend that applications be submitted early in the day to avoid delays.
