Georgia trucking permits
Trip, fuel and oversize/overweight permits for Georgia — what the state requires, how it prices them, and how to get them filed.
What Georgia permits cost
The state's own fee, plus what we charge to prepare and file it. Your total depends on the trip, so the quote is the number that counts — these are the floors we hold on file.
| Permit | Georgia fee | Our fee |
|---|---|---|
| Trip Permit | from $30 | $29 |
| Fuel Permit | from $50 | $29 |
| Oversize / Overweight | from $38 | $39 |
A handling fee applies to each permit line. Nothing is charged until you have seen the total.
Fees and limits on this page were last checked in September 2026. States change fee schedules, legal limits and office hours without notice, and some fees depend on details we only know once you tell us the trip. Georgia is the authority, not this page — treat these as a guide and the quote as the number.
When you need an oversize permit in Georgia
Over 102 inches wide or 80,000 lbs gross, a load needs a permit in Georgia as it would anywhere. Height, trailer length and axle weight are where states differ, and here is where Georgia sits.
- Height
- 13' 6"
- 13' 6" in the strictest states
- Semi-trailer length
- 53'
- 53' in most states
- Tandem axle
- 40,000 lbs
- A tandem axle may carry 40,000 lbs here, above the 34,000 lbs federal Interstate limit — so a load that is overweight on the axles in a neighbouring state can be legal in Georgia.
Overhangs, single and tridem axles and the full table are on the Georgia regulations page.
The Georgia permit office
Who issues the permit, when they are open, and where they take applications. We deal with them so you do not have to — but if you would rather call them yourself, this is the desk.
