Annual oversize permits: cost and break-even

An annual permit covers routine oversize moves for a year in one state. For a carrier running the same over-width equipment every week it pays off fast; for a broker pricing one-off moves it usually does not apply. Here is every state's price.

Break-even is the number of single-trip permits that would cost the same as the annual. Annual permits cover routine dimensions only; superloads and most overweight moves still need a single-trip permit.
