Loveland, CO
Farm Equipment Transport

• Maximum width: 8 feet 6 inches
• Maximum height: Route- and configuration-dependent
• Maximum gross weight: 80,000 pounds
• Additional limits: Trailer dimensions, axle weights, foothill clearances, and posted bridge limits also apply.

Farm equipment exceeding Colorado legal size or weight limits generally requires an oversize or overweight permit before moving through Loveland. The application should include loaded dimensions, axle weights, configuration, origin, destination, and route, with additional review possible for mountain or restricted corridors.

Pilot cars may be required when oversized agricultural machinery moves through Loveland or toward foothill and rural routes. Colorado permit conditions may assign front escorts, rear escorts, height poles, or additional support based on the loaded dimensions, grades, weather, bridge limits, and road width.

Oversized farm equipment moving through Loveland may be limited to daylight travel and restricted during holidays, high winds, snow, or poor visibility. Front Range traffic, foothill weather, and construction near I-25, US-34, and US-287 may also affect the approved schedule.

Farm and ranch equipment moving through Loveland should use a trailer rated for the complete loaded weight and dimensions. Tires, brakes, lights, chains, binders, and ramps should be inspected, with added attention to wind, snow, grades, cattle guards, and uneven rural loading areas.

Loveland route planning should account for wind, snow, foothill grades, bridge limits, construction, and rural road conditions near I-25, US-34, US-287, CO-402, and CO-60. Ranch access should be checked for cattle guards, narrow gates, steep approaches, and enough room for the trailer to maneuver.
