North Little Rock, AR
Farm Equipment Transport

Standard Arkansas highway limits generally allow vehicles and loads up to 8 feet 6 inches wide, with legal height, length, axle, and gross-weight limits depending on the roadway and vehicle configuration. Interstate gross vehicle weight is generally limited to 80,000 pounds. Farm equipment exceeding applicable limits may require oversize or overweight permits and approved routing.

Farm equipment exceeding Arkansas legal size or weight limits may require an oversize or overweight permit before moving through North Little Rock. The carrier should confirm the loaded dimensions, gross and axle weights, trailer configuration, origin, destination, and route so Arkansas Highway Police can establish the applicable permit and travel conditions.

Farm equipment moving through North Little Rock may require escort vehicles depending on the permitted dimensions and Arkansas travel conditions. Width, height, length, bridge approaches, metro traffic, and rural-road visibility can determine whether front, rear, or multiple escorts are needed.

Farm equipment moving through North Little Rock must follow the travel periods and conditions listed on the Arkansas oversize or overweight permit. Metro traffic, construction, severe weather, holiday restrictions, bridge conditions, and reduced visibility can affect the approved travel window.

Farm equipment leaving North Little Rock should be loaded on a trailer suited to the machine’s size, weight, clearance, and loading needs.

Farm equipment routes through North Little Rock should be planned around I-30, I-40, I-440, bridge access, metro congestion, construction, and heavy rain.
