Call — Divisible Load Permit Call — Non-Divisible Load Permit

Non-Divisible Load

A single object or combined load that cannot be separated without hours of work, specialized equipment, or damaging the cargo.

Note: If the load cannot be broken down within 8 hours of labor or without destroying its value, it is non-divisible.

Divisible Load

Cargo of multiple items separable into smaller units without damage or specialized equipment.

Note: If weight or size can be reduced by unloading a portion, the load is divisible.

Why This Classification Matters

NYSDOT maintains separate permit categories for each load type. A single solid unit requires a Special Hauling Permit (non-divisible); multiple separable items need a Divisible Load Overweight Permit. State rules forbid overweight permits when cargo can reasonably be reduced to legal dimensions — misclassification leads to fines and forced offloading.

Restricted Travel in New York

A permit is not a 24/7 green light. NY enforces curfews by day, time, and region.
