23 CFR §658 Every state, county, and city permit — verified, not assumed

The most rigorous multi-state permit packet a heavy-haul carrier can get.

MoveCleared assembles a documentation-complete move packet — every required permit, route-verified, with curfews, escort matrix, and restriction digest — checked against the 50-state rulebook before a senior permit agent releases it.

Why packets fail

A single missing permit can stop a load at the state line.

Every oversize or overweight load in America requires a government permit for each state it crosses. Miss one state, county, or city permit, mis-time a curfew, or route through a restriction — and the load can be fined, impounded, or cause a bridge strike with unbounded liability.

Most carriers run this by hand, state by state, or use legacy permit services that are slow, accept whatever route the state auto-router spits out, and push restriction-reading onto the driver. The rulebook moves faster than a dispatcher can track.

MoveCleared exists to close that gap with a single, exhaustive standard applied identically to every move.

The benchmark

Measured against the 50-state rulebook — jurisdiction by jurisdiction.

We do not summarize the law and hope. Every packet is scored against a versioned rule pack tied to the exact text of each state's OS/OW regulations, county and city ordinances, and federal size/weight limits under 23 CFR §658. These are the provisions each packet is held to.

23 CFR §658.13

Federal size & weight limits

Legal dimensions and weights for interstate travel; any excess requires a state-issued permit — verified for every load.

State-specific dimensional thresholds

State permit triggers

Each state's maximum width, height, length, and weight without a permit — checked against load dimensions to determine every jurisdiction requiring a permit.

State curfew & holiday calendars

Curfew & holiday restrictions

Time-of-day, day-of-week, and holiday travel bans for each jurisdiction — compiled into a driver-ready digest.

Escort/pilot-car matrix

Escort requirements

Number, type, and positioning of escort vehicles required by each state based on load dimensions — verified and included in the packet.

Route-continuity check

Route continuity

The proposed route is checked across all jurisdictions for consistency, restriction compatibility, and bridge/clearance issues — any conflict blocks release.

Superload coordination

Superload bridge analysis & police escort

For loads exceeding standard thresholds, bridge-analysis submissions, route-survey subcontracting, and police-escort scheduling paperwork are coordinated and evidenced.

How a packet is built

Intake to senior agent release, with deterministic gates the AI cannot overrule.

AI extracts and drafts. Deterministic rules — running as code, outside the model — decide what is complete. A senior permit agent signs every release. That order is never reversed.

01

Route & Restriction Exposure Check

Send load dimensions, axle configuration, and origin–destination. We return a free completeness read: which permits and restrictions apply, and what is missing.

02

Permit & route research

As your authorized clerical agent, we query the 50-state rulebook, county and city ordinances, and federal limits to identify every required permit and restriction.

03

Grounded drafting

Permit applications are drafted from your validated data and the rule pack into portal-ready forms — no legal opinions, no invented facts.

04

Deterministic completeness gates

Dimensional math reconciles to the load to the inch; route continuity is verified; curfew/escort matrix is resolved; any failure blocks release.

05

Senior agent release

A senior permit agent reviews the exception queue and signs the release. Superloads route to attorney review first.

06

Delivery

You receive the move packet: all permits, route-continuity report, driver digest of curfews/escorts/restrictions, and certified-mail packet — ready for the carrier to roll.

Why MoveCleared

Built to be the most thorough option a carrier has.

Documentation-complete, by design

The deliverable is completeness itself — every permit and restriction accounted for or explicitly exception-coded. Nothing is left implicit.

Deterministic, not vibes

The gates that decide completeness are code, not a model's opinion. A drafting error cannot slip past a regulatory requirement.

In its lane, on purpose

We prepare documentation and run searches as your clerical agent. We never give legal advice, route the load, or drive the truck.

Engagement

Flat fee, per released packet. No contingency, ever.

Simple, predictable, and aligned with a documentation standard — not a cut of any freight revenue.

  • A free Route & Restriction Exposure Check before you commit — see exactly what is missing.
  • One flat fee per released Move Packet; disclosed pass-through permit fees.
  • Optional fixed-fee attorney review for superloads or high-value moves.
  • Optional Monthly Permit Desk subscription for recurring carriers.
FAQ

Questions, answered precisely.

Is MoveCleared a law firm?
No. MoveCleared, a service of Your Deputy, Obuke LLC, provides documentation-completeness services. It is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not represent you in any legal matter. Attorney review is available and recommended for superloads or high-value moves.
Do you route the load or drive the truck?
Never. MoveCleared is not a freight broker or carrier. The carrier remains responsible for routing and operation. We provide the permit packet and restriction digest to inform safe, legal movement.
What makes a packet 'complete'?
Completeness is defined by the regulatory landscape: every required permit identified, route continuity verified, curfew/escort matrix resolved, and dimensional math checked. Deterministic gates enforce each one before release.
How fast is it?
The standard SLA is five business days from complete intake to a senior-agent-released packet. The free Exposure Check is returned much sooner and tells you exactly what is still needed.
How are you priced?
A flat fee per released packet, plus disclosed pass-through permit costs. No contingency and no percentage of any freight revenue.
