There are no set height, width, or length determinations that designate a super load in New Mexico. Each load is looked at on a case-by-case basis and determination is made as to its proposed route.
Loads in excess of normal legal limits shall submit an application including sketches, axle weights and spacings to the state.
For loads 20 feet wide or more, contact State Police.
Sixteen-foot high loads need a written route survey; over 18 feet high, contact the utility company.
An application for a special permit for a vehicle, combination or load with a gross weight in excess of 170,000 pounds needs to be forwarded to the department of transportation for approval. A permit will not be issued unless an engineering analysis has been conducted for the proposed route and the move has been approved by the department of transportation. Loads of 190 feet long or greater and/or over, 200,000 pounds, contact the Highway Department.
One to two weeks in advance is required to process requests.
