Start with the permit and official Florida resource
Use the issued permit and current Florida Department of Transportation resources when planning a Florida oversize movement. This guide is for service preparation and does not publish Florida escort thresholds or replace agency instructions.
For multi-state moves, review every issuing jurisdiction involved in the route.
Florida service preparation
Before requesting service, prepare origin and destination, pickup timing, overall loaded dimensions, permit status, route information, required escort configuration, pickup and delivery contacts, billing details, and special instructions.
Submitting a request does not confirm availability, rate, booking, route clearance, permit approval, or successful completion.
Lead, chase and high-pole coordination
Lead, chase and high-pole needs should be reviewed against the permit, route, load dimensions, road type, time of movement, load characteristics, construction, and current authority instructions.
Do not assume one numeric threshold controls every Florida or multi-state movement.
Route-survey considerations
Florida moves may involve route details that deserve careful review, including overhead concerns, bridges, signals, railroad crossings, road geometry, construction, access points, and restrictions.
Route conditions can change. A survey or route review does not replace the permit or current government approval.
Multi-state moves and replacement needs
McKee Oversize Load Escorts, LLC is a nationwide pilot-car dispatcher. Florida may be the origin, destination, or one jurisdiction in a longer route.
Emergency replacement requests should include the current location, permit details, required escort configuration, timing, contact information, and any known route restrictions. A request does not guarantee availability.
