Oversized agricultural machinery moving from Plymouth generally requires a Minnesota oversize or overweight permit. Accurate loaded measurements, axle weights, equipment configuration, pickup location, destination, and proposed route are needed, and seasonal road restrictions may affect approval.

Pilot cars may be required for oversized agricultural equipment moving through Plymouth based on Minnesota permit conditions. The loaded dimensions, route, seasonal restrictions, traffic conditions, and available roadway width determine whether front escorts, rear escorts, or height-clearance support are needed.

Oversized agricultural equipment moving through Plymouth may be limited to daylight hours and restricted during holidays, winter storms, or low-visibility conditions. Heavy Twin Cities traffic and seasonal road restrictions may also affect when the permitted load can travel.

Equipment moving from Plymouth should be loaded on a properly rated trailer and secured with transport-grade chains, binders, and attachment restraints. Winter weather may require extra attention to tire condition, braking, visibility, cleared loading surfaces, and ice-free ramps before the carrier leaves the pickup site.

Routes from Plymouth should account for Twin Cities congestion, winter weather, seasonal road restrictions, bridge capacities, and the transition from I-494, US-12, MN-55, or MN-101 to rural farm roads. Pickup and delivery access should be checked for snow, soft ground, narrow entrances, and limited turnaround space.
