Oversize load holiday, weekend, night and city curfew restrictions by state

When a permitted oversize or overweight load may not move, for all 50 states, DC and 25 freight metros. Each rule is dated and links to the state or city source.

Last reviewed . A summary in our own words of each state and city rule, not legal advice. The permit you are issued governs.

Thanksgiving 2026

Weekend rules stretch many of these windows. Read the state's row before you plan a Friday move. For the exact 2026 window in every state, see Thanksgiving 2026 oversize load restrictions by state.

Where the sources disagree

Two official sources say different things in these places. We show the stricter reading first; confirm with the state before you rely on the other one.

  • Atlanta, inside I-285

    Stay off the road inside I-285 from 6 to 9 a.m. and from 3 to 6 p.m., Monday to Friday, unless picking up or delivering there. That covers both readings below.

  • Vermont, weekends and holidays

    Treat loads over 10 ft 6 in wide, 100 ft long or 108,000 lb as barred on Saturdays, Sundays and the listed holidays, and from July 1 to Labor Day also on Friday afternoons. Confirm with Vermont Commercial Vehicle Operations before you plan around the looser reading.

  • Illinois Tollway

    Plan on a 10 ft width limit on most of the Tollway (12 ft on the I-80 and US 51 sections), and get the permit from the Tollway, not IDOT.

Questions dispatchers ask

Can I move an oversize load on Thanksgiving?
In most states, no. Kansas, Kentucky and South Dakota have no holiday bar for ordinary oversize loads, and Iowa, Alaska and Colorado restrict only Memorial Day, Independence Day and Labor Day. Elsewhere most states bar oversize loads on Thanksgiving, often only above a set width, height or length or off certain routes, and the bar most often starts at noon the day before. In Connecticut, Nebraska and Oregon it runs from noon Wednesday to Monday morning, and in Alabama from sunset Wednesday to sunrise Monday.
Which states let oversize loads move on weekends?
Several. No statewide weekend bar was found in Texas, Oklahoma, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington or South Dakota, though some Texas towns bar weekend moves and Tennessee keeps mobile homes off the road on Sundays. Many others bar Saturday afternoon through Sunday, or Sunday only, often only above a width. Check the Weekends column for each state.
Can oversize loads travel at night?
Usually not. Most states allow wide loads only from about half an hour before sunrise to half an hour after sunset, and a few allow night moves for overweight-only loads or by a permit that says so. The Night column gives each state rule.
Do cities have their own oversize curfews?
Yes. Most metro curfews bar weekday moves from 7 to 9 a.m. and 4 to 6 p.m., set by the state, and some cities add their own permit or hours on city streets. Los Angeles, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Columbus, New Orleans and Seattle have rules worth reading before you route through them.
Is this legal advice?
No. It is a dated summary, in our own words, of each state and city source linked beside it. The permit you are issued governs, and a state can change its dates at any time.

How this was checked

On October 30, 2026 we read each state's permit rules, its holiday calendar where it publishes one, and the curfew rules of the 25 metros, then checked every holiday date against a calendar. This page holds 324 rules. We re-check the yearly calendars in mid-December. Found something wrong or out of date? Tell us at hello@thirteensix.com.
