What we do

Oversize and overweight permits, state by state.

At Cran Permits your route is worked out by someone who ran OS and OW freight themselves, in all 48 states. Setting up takes one form: your company, your contacts, your units — then you can order.

Heavy haul permits, filed the same way every time

We take the paperwork off the driver. Every application is checked, cross-checked and filed, and the three of them fit inside the hour.

Someone is on the desk 7 AM–7 PM CST on weekdays and 9 AM–3 PM CST on Saturday, whichever coast you are calling from.

Flexible Ordering

Order by email, by phone, or in the portal. Pay whichever way suits your office.

Permits, Mapped

Common questions

Answers before you pick up the phone

What does Cran Permits do?

We apply for and buy the permits that oversize and overweight freight needs, in all 48 continental states — and, either side of that, work out the route before you buy and turn the issued permit into a map your driver can follow.

How is a permit priced?

By the load, not by a flat rate. Our filing fee runs from $15 to $30 per permit depending on the dimensions and weight you are actually moving, and each state's own fee is added per state. The Permit Estimator puts both together before you commit.

Which states are covered?

All 48 continental states, each handled under its own provisions.

When is someone on the desk?

7 AM to 7 PM CST on weekdays and 9 AM to 3 PM CST on Saturday, whichever coast you are calling from.
