Massachusetts considers any load that exceeds a width of 14 feet, a height of 14 feet (13 feet 8 inches requires a route survey), or a length of 115 feet, a super load.
An application for all super loads must be submitted in writing to the state and requires a full structural analysis.
If load exceeds130,000 pounds, an outside engineering firm must do a route survey.
Loads higher than 13 feet 9 inches, wider than 12 feet, longer than 100 feet or weighing more than 130,000 pounds must be escorted by a vehicle of the Massachusetts State Police. Loads wider than 15 feet or longer than 135 feet will require two Massachusetts State Police vehicles.
